Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
Sodium Acetylated HyaluronateHydrator
An acetyl-modified hyaluronic-acid salt that binds water while being a little more oil-compatible and longer-lasting on skin.
What it does
Sodium acetylated hyaluronate is the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid with acetyl groups added. It is a humectant that draws and holds water at the skin surface like other hyaluronic-acid forms, while the acetyl groups make it slightly more compatible with oils and help it cling to the surface so the moisturizing feel lasts longer. It is a water-binding, surface-conditioning ingredient.
