When it comes to deep hydration, two powerhouse ingredients stand out—Cactus Extract and Hyaluronic Acid. But which one is better for your skin? Let’s break it down and discover why Evermore’s cactus-infused skincare is the ultimate hydration solution for sensitive and dry skin.
Understanding Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a well-known humectant that attracts and retains moisture. It’s commonly found in skincare products due to its ability to:
- Hold up to 1000x its weight in water
- Plump and smooth the skin
- Temporarily reduce the appearance of fine lines
However, Hyaluronic Acid has some drawbacks:
🚫 Pulls moisture from deeper skin layers in dry climates, leading to dehydration.
🚫 Breaks down quickly, requiring frequent reapplication.
🚫 Can be synthetic or animal-derived, making it less eco-friendly.
Why Cactus is the Ultimate Hydration Hero
Cactus extract, especially from Opuntia Ficus-Indica, offers a more sustainable and skin-friendly alternative: Rich in polysaccharides that lock in moisture for long-lasting hydration.
🌵 Soothes irritation with natural anti-inflammatory properties.
🌵 Boosts skin barrier function, preventing moisture loss.
🌵 Packed with vitamins & antioxidants to fight environmental stressors.
🌵 Retains water even in harsh climates, making it perfect for dry and sensitive skin.
