🛑 Everyone loves a good Hyaluronic acid serum - but is it actually making your skin worse?? 👀

Here’s what you need to know if HA is your obsession:

➡️ Don’t be duped!
Dupes and cheap HA serums commonly use the wrong weights (large molecules). Instead of pulling water into your skin, they suck moisture out - leaving your skin thirsty and barrier irritated.

It’s pretty much the equivalent of drinking salt water when you’re dehydrated 😩

➡️ Know your Type!
On an impaired skin (think dry, hot, itchy, flaky or sore), HA behaves like an over-eager sponge.
It absorbs water into the upper layers of the skin, swelling your keratinocytes (so it FEELS nice and plump).

But without enough lipids to seal it all that water evaporates super quickly, leaving skin even drier and more inflamed. And so you apply more and more but nothing changes.

➡️ Check the forecast….
💧In high humidity, HA can draw moisture from the air so the skin looks hydrated
☀️ In dry climates there’s no ambient moisture to pull from so the HA steals it from your own skin, which can worsen dehydration

So what do we recommend?

INTELLIGENT SKINCARE ~ VOGUE X HÜD
As a founder and someone who started my business because of my own skin journey (struggles with acne and melasma), I know firsthand how tempting quick fixes and glass skin, poreless, plump skin is….

The desire to find “the one” (skincare product or treatment) that will have you skip all the stops and go straight to juicy skin heaven…

But the reality is, the skin is an organ.
It takes time to become un balanced - and it takes time to get back into balance again.

It throws curveballs depending on hormones, allergies, lifestyle factors, diet and so many other variables. So treating skin simply cannot always be linear and easy (if it were we wouldn’t have hundreds of thousands of clients previously on roaccutane having relapses…).

Skincare is evolving. And I had the privilege of sharing my thoughts on the (exciting!) direction we’re headed.

Thank you Karen Leong for writing this article for raising the topic of intelligent skincare and the future of aesthetics.

It’s an important conversation - and we welcome a move away from quick fixes, big fillers, stripped away barriers which look glassy but have zero protection - and a one size fits all approach.

Ps! Which skincare trends do you think should be left behind? 👇👇👇

HÜD X VOGUE 💋

Intelligent skincare. What does it mean ?
Why is it so important?

How have we eveolved from quick fixes and instant gratification, to getting to the root cause and rebuilding the skin in a way that creates long term homeostasis?

Ecstatic to lend our voice and play a part in the movement from quick fixes and “anti aging” to “healthy ageing” and longevity in skincare.

Check out the link in our bio for the full report and interview with our founder 🤍

Thank you to the incredibly talented Karen Leong for such in depth, truly provocative questions.

Such talented, likeminded thought leaders in and 🫶

👉Advanced Skin Consultation (for those with a fair bit going on internally and externally). It’s 45 mins, $120 and includes an LED treatment.

👉 Skin Assessment + Customised Treatment (you have less going on and want a treatment first and foremost - but with an educated assessment to make sure you get what’s right for you…). $299 - 75mins.

💥PIGMENTATION isn’t just skin deep…

So many factors lay behind this common skin concern. So if your pigmentation isn’t clearing despite getting treatments, using pigment inhibitors and (OF COURSE) a good quality broad spectrum SPF - check if any of these might be the reason.

And as always, chat to your dermal therapist if you’re not sure what’s going on.

We offer all clients a complimentary skin review at any time☀️

NEW ADVENTURES FOR THESE TWO ❤️✈️

I dare say as a business owner one of the most heartbreaking - but yet also so so BEAUTIFUL and rewarding - parts of running a business is having incredible people be such a big part of our journey for years, and then watching them to go on life’s adventures.

After starting with us during C*vid (literally her first day we went into a long lockdown), Tonaya is embarking on travels, adventure and life overseas ✈️🌍

Nichole, after having joined us twice - with a year overseas in between, moves into her new abode and a new chapter in life.

We are absolutely thrilled for both of you and couldn’t be more grateful for the love, care, knowledge and legacy you leave at HÜD.

WE MISS YOU ALREADY! ❤️❤️❤️
