What does molecular weight mean in skin care?

“Molecular weight” is just a fancy term for how big or small a molecule is. 

• High molecular weight = big molecules 
• Low molecular weight = small molecules 
• Very low molecular weight = extra tiny molecules 

The size of the molecule affects how deep it can go into your skin:

How this applies to hyaluronic acid 

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is famous for attracting and holding up to 1 000x its weight in water — but how deep it works depends on its molecular weight: 

High Molecular Weight (HMW) HA 

• Stays on the surface of the skin 
• Acts like a water shield or moisture seal 
• Gives instant hydration and a plump, dewy look 

Low Molecular Weight (LMW) HA 

• Goes deeper into the skin 
• Hydrates from within 
• Helps improve skin texture and firmness 

Very Low Molecular Weight (VLMW) HA 

• Penetrates the deepest layers 
• Targets fine lines, wrinkles, and long-term skin health 

Why it matters 

Using all three molecular weights of HA creates a multi-level hydration system, meaning your skin is moisturised on the surface, in the middle and deep down. This gives both instant results and long-term skin health benefits. 

Annique’s Essense Hyaluronic Acid³ Serum uses all three types for multi-layer hydration: 

• Surface glow 
• Deep nourishment 
• Long-term anti-ageing support 

It’s like giving your skin a drink of water — on the outside, inside, and all the way down to the roots. 

Using all three molecular weights of HA creates a multi-level hydration system, meaning your skin is moisturised on the surface, in the middle and deep down. This gives both instant results and long-term skin health benefits. 

After cleansing, use 1-2 pumps of serum and gently press evenly to your face and neck while your skin is still damp. Follow with your preferred Forever Young Anti-Ageing or Essense Treatment products. Use the moisturiser best suited to your skin type, to lock in hydration. For best results, use morning and evening.

Plumping & smoothing effect
