Hyaluronic Acid (800kDa–1060kDa)

$25.00
Tax included.

This grade of Hyaluronic Acid (800kDa–1060kDa) is a high molecular weight variant known for forming a lightweight, breathable film on the skin's surface. Unlike low molecular weight HA, which penetrates deeper into the dermis, this larger molecule sits on top of the skin, creating an occlusive layer that locks in moisture, smooths texture, and reduces trans-epidermal water loss.

Benefits
  • Surface Hydration – Forms a moisture-retentive film that keeps skin plump and dewy
  • Barrier Support – Helps reduce water loss and protect against environmental stressors
  • Smoothing Effect – Temporarily fills fine lines and improves skin texture
  • Lightweight Feel – Less tacky than lower molecular weight HA in finished formulations
  • Non-Comedogenic – Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin

Recommended Applications

  • Serums and essences
  • Moisturizers and creams
  • Sheet masks and hydrogel masks
  • Setting sprays and mists
  • Multi-molecular-weight HA blends (often paired with low MW HA for layered hydration)

Usage & Formulation Notes

  • Typical use level: 0.1%–2% depending on desired viscosity and hydration intensity
  • Best incorporated into the water phase during formulation, post-emulsification, at lower temperatures to preserve molecular integrity
  • Pairs well with glycerine, panthenol, and niacinamide for enhanced barrier and hydration synergy
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; keep container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption

Recommended Applications

  • Facial moisturisers and creams
  • Hydrating serums and essences
  • Sheet masks and hydrogel masks
  • Toners and mists
  • Body lotions and after-sun care

Usage & Formulation Notes

  • Typical use level: 0.1% – 2%, depending on desired viscosity and hydration level
  • Water-soluble; hydrate slowly in the water phase to avoid clumping, allowing sufficient time for full dissolution
  • Best incorporated during the cooling phase to preserve molecular integrity
  • Very hygroscopic — protect raw material from moisture during storage and handling
  • Compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients; patch/compatibility testing recommended for new formulations

Product Safety
  • For cosmetic/topical formulation use only — not intended for oral, injectable, or medical use
  • Patch testing is recommended before first use in any new finished formulation
  • Discontinue use if irritation, redness, or allergic reaction occurs
  • Keep out of reach of children
  • Not tested on animals (cruelty-free, microbial fermentation source)
  • Store away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight to maintain product integrity
  • Handle raw powder in a well-ventilated area; avoid inhalation of fine powder during weighing/formulation

FAQs

Questions

What is the difference between high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid?

High molecular weight HA (like this 800kDa–1060kDa grade) sits on the skin's surface to form a hydrating film, while low molecular weight HA penetrates deeper into the skin for more intensive hydration.

Is this Hyaluronic Acid suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, it is generally well-tolerated and non-comedogenic, but a patch test is recommended before use in any new formulation.

Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, it is derived from microbial fermentation (non-animal sourced) and is not tested on animals.

What is the recommended usage rate in formulations?

Typical use levels range from 0.1%–2%, depending on the desired viscosity and hydration level.

How should this product be stored?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption.

Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

Yes, a COA and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) are available upon request.

Can this be used in DIY skincare at home?

It's formulated primarily for professional and manufacturing use; if used at home, ensure proper handling, accurate measuring, and patch testing beforehand.
