Key Active Ingredients and Benefits

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) allows nutrients to reach deeper levels of the skin by maintaining extra cellular space. Can bind up to 1000x times its own weight in water which boosts and maintains skin hydration levels, accelerates tissue repair and cell regeneration. Environmental pollution can decrease the levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin, causing fine lines, reduced elasticity, wrinkles and dark spots. By including hyaluronic acid in the skincare routine, this can replenish the levels resulting in improved skin texture and appearance. Low molecular HA weights penetrate the skin to deliver nourishing and regenerative qualities to the deeper layers of the skin. HA with higher molecular weights forms a hydration barrier on the surface of the skin delivering instant visible results, improving skin texture and hydration levels whilst also protecting against pollutants in the environment.

Fucus Serratus Seaweed Extract

Fucus Serratus Seaweed is one of the key ingredients ishga uses, due to its remarkable benefits for the skin. It contains high levels of natural antioxidants known as polyphenols.

Fucus Serratus Seaweed has also been found to regenerate skin cells, promote natural collagen and hyaluronic acid production in the skin, and deliver hydrating properties to lock in moisture.
