You probably heard of the phrase, "Clear Skin".
What is exactly the Clear Skin? Is it the fair skin without suntan? Or is it the skin with no freckles or spots? Everybody may have a different image of Clear Skin. We'd like to talk about it with a point of view of the 'Light'.
Skin Clarity
Let's take the glass as an example.
Clear glass has the depth you can see through.
It's because of the smooth surface of the glass letting the light reflect evenly. Once scratching its surface, it starts to reflect the light randomly (irregular reflection), and it becomes like the semi-transparent glass of the shower room.
It actually can happen to the skin, too.
Smooth skin reflects light evenly and creates depth, however, the uneven surface makes the skin semi-transparent.
That means, it can be said that "Clear Skin" has a neatly-arranged surface and the stratum corneum of the skin.
Use W Hyaluronic Acid to achieve "Crystal Clear Skin"
Lululun has found beauty ingredients, which reach both epidermis and stratum corneum of the skin, "W Hyaluronic Acid."
Due to the weakened skin barrier function or aging, the altered skin turnover cycle leads to skin thickening and uneven texture of the skin and making you look tired and older. It's often caused by environmental stress such as UV exposure, air pollution as well as aging.
Hyaluronic acid is known as a skin moisturizing component, but it also blocks external stimulus by attaching to the skin.
Adsorption Type Hyaluronic Acid and Penetrating Hyaluronic Acid
What we mean by 'W Hyaluronic Acids' are Adsorption Type Hyaluronic Acid (Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid) and Penetrating Hyaluronic Acid (Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate).
Adsorption-Type Hyaluronic Acid (Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid) is a hyaluronic acid that has a cation group attached to a part of sodium hyaluronate. It stays like a veil on the surface of the skin and has a feature of its high absorptivity that does not run off even if it comes in contact with water or sweat.
Penetration Type Hyaluronic Acid (Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate) is a hyaluronic acid obtained by reducing the molecular weight of sodium hyaluronate to 10,000 or less. With features of low viscosity and high penetrating ability, it maintains the stratum corneum healthy by penetrating into the stratum corneum and moisturizing.
These two hyaluronic acids protect the skin from external factors and maintain the skin elasticity by reflecting the light. This results in leading to the “Crystal Clear Skin.”
