Hands up if skin hydration is not one of your skin concern.

I'm sure most of you are familiar with the term hyaluronic acid by now as it can be found in skincare products such as toner/lotion, serum, moisturizer and facial mask. Now even in tablet form!

The most common causes of dry skin includes:

- Cold Weather/Air-con

- Dehydration caused by consuming too much sugar and caffeine products such as soda and coffee.

- Irritants such as chemicals and perfume found in your skin care products, so make sure you avoid those that are artifically-scented ones!

I know you have heard this umpteen of times before but the key to having well-moistured skin is still to - moisturize, Moisturize and MOISTURIZE! So make sure you don't skip your moisturizer/emulsion at night before heading to bed no matter how tired you are. For daytime, try using a lighter moisturizer, for me I usually apply emulsion during the day time after my serum.

What do you all turn to when skincare can't help to fight your dry skin? For me, I believe in taking care of my inner body either through hydrating myself by drinking more water or taking supplements. I take Evening Primrose Oil on a daily basis to help to regulate my menses and I realised that it works for my skin too. To fight large pores and dull skin, I have been taking collagen drinks on and off (as it would be too hard on my pocket to consume them regularly).

Recently, I was sent Fancl NANO Hyaluronic acid.

Helps to strengthen the skin barrier function to prevent loss of moisture and improve moisture retention. Formulated with moisture-inducing ingredients such as Nano Hyaluronic Acid, N-acetylglucosamine and Ceramide, they have been scientifically developed to be easily absorbed into the body.

Nano Hyaluronic Acid can also be consumed alongside with Fancl HTC Collagen products such as TenseUp EX for maximal effect.

Fancl Nano Hyaluronic Acid supplements help you achieve a desirable smooth, soft and supple complexion.

- Nano Hyaluronic Acid: Improves moisture retention

- N-acetylglucosamine: Promotes the production of Hyaluronic Acid in the body when consumed, thus improving moisture retention and skin cell barrier functions.

- Cermaide: Strengthen skin cell barrier functions

Take one tablet daily. Not suitable for pregnant women, lactating women and children. Not recommended for those allergic to seafood as N-acetylglucosamine is derived from seafood extracts.
