Large amounts of water are held in the ECM. Young skin (smooth and elastic) contains a large amount of HA. With age, the ability of the skin to produce HA decreases. Since it helps to bind water, the ability of the skin to retain water also declines. As a result, the skin becomes drier, thinner, and less able to restore itself.
Squalane is a natural hydrocarbon and triterpene derived from a variety of plants. It is a component of human sebum. It is produced by our bodies in small amounts. This production is highest in our early years and rapidly declines in our thirties. We require additional squalane for skin replenishment to keep it moisturized as we age.
Ceramides are the key molecules of epidermis for maintaining moisture and integrity of the cutaneous barrier. The outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, is composed of flattened corneocytes between which are found lamellar bilayers composed of ceramides, cholesterol and free fatty acids that protect the skin and the organism from rapid dehydration.These 3 precious components have been entrapped at a liposome by a specialized and unique anhydrous production process, maximizing their activities. It has a high penetration into deeper skin layers and, because its similarity to the bio-membrane structure, it has Improved skin affinity.

The great advantage of Hyaceramidyl is that it contains anhydrous Sodium Hyalurotante isolated from the water phase water by the Squalane and the multilayer Ceramide liposome.
Hyaluronic Acid (Hya), being a water soluble substance will be immediately captured and diffused into the water phase of an emulsion without playing any specific role into the epidermis and dermis.
The main interest to use a stable form of HyA into the epidermis is linked to the hydrophobic activity of the HyA which will capture and absorb the water from the skin and will swell the epidermal layers decreasing the wrinkles depth and release water (moisturizing activity).
By using our technology process we have been able to encapsulate HyA into a stable micro emulsion which once in contact with cell’s membrane will release the HyA and will capture water from the epidermis due to the affinity of the ceramides with the cells.
