Understanding 8D Hyaluronic Acid Composition and INCI Names
Question
I have a question about 8D Hyaluronic Acid. Are `Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid` and `Sodium Hyaluronate Molecule 10K` the same as 8D Hyaluronic Acid? Also, the INCI list for 8D Hyaluronic Acid seems to have fewer than 8 items. Could you please clarify the composition and the INCI names included in the 8D blend?
Answer
Understanding 8D Hyaluronic Acid
8D Hyaluronic Acid is a comprehensive blend featuring multiple types and molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to provide diverse benefits to the skin. It is not a single ingredient with one INCI name.
Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid is the INCI name for our Hyaluronic Acid (Small Molecule, 8-50K Daltons). This is a specific type of hyaluronic acid with a low molecular weight, designed for deeper skin penetration. It is one of the components found in the 8D Hyaluronic Acid blend, but it is not the same as the entire 8D product.
Sodium Hyaluronate Molecule 10K refers to Sodium Hyaluronate with a molecular weight around 10,000 Daltons. Our 8D Hyaluronic Acid blend includes Sodium Hyaluronate at various molecular weights, including 10K Daltons, listed under the INCI name
Sodium Hyaluronate (Quattro Molecule 10K, 800K, 1M, 2M). So, while Sodium Hyaluronate 10K is a part of the 8D blend, it is not the same product.
The INCI list for our 8D Hyaluronic Acid is: Sodium Hyaluronate (Quattro Molecule 10K, 800K, 1M, 2M) , Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate, Sodium acetylated hyaluronate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Water Preserved by Phenoxyethanol 0.8%. This list accurately reflects the INCI names of the various hyaluronic acid types and other ingredients present in the 8D blend. The term "8D" refers to the combination of different types and sizes of hyaluronic acid that work together to provide a broad spectrum of hydration and skin benefits, often described as acting in 8 different dimensions or ways, rather than strictly meaning there are 8 distinct INCI names for hyaluronic acid derivatives.
