WHAT IS POLYGLUTAMIC ACID?
Polyglutamic acid (PGA) is a powerful water-soluble peptide that is derived from fermented soybeans and naturally occurs in our bodies.

WHAT ARE THE SKINCARE BENEFITS?
PGA is one of the most hydrating ingredients and can serve many purposes, from boosting skin elasticity and minimising pigmentation to helping reduce the appearance of fine lines.

It has incredible water retaining capabilities and is able to hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water. Plus, it has brilliant skin-sealing qualities, allowing your skin to retain its moisture for much longer than usual. It’s an effective ingredient that will leave skin smooth, plump and radiant.

IS IT MORE HYDRATING THAN HYALURONIC ACID?
Hyaluronic acid, otherwise known as HA, has long been heralded as a hero product for its hydrating prowess, however polyglutamic acid has the ability to hold around 10 times more moisture than hyaluronic acid itself.

The key difference between polyglutamic acid and hyaluronic acid is that PGA creates a ‘film’ over the skins surface, which prevents the water from evaporating. Hyaluronic acid, however, can still be used with PGA (ideally, before), as it is ideal for hydrating the lower levels of the skin, allowing your skin to retain its moisture on a deeper level. The two work in synergy with one another.

Ultimately, by combining both HYALURONIC and POLYGLUTAMIC within your skin care regime, you’re ensuring that you hydrate the lowest levels of your skin, and ‘seal in’ the upper levels, resulting in maximum hydration. This combination is the perfect solution for tight, dehydrated skin.
