What's actually in the bottle, and why.
Vélume is built around one idea: one form of hyaluronic acid isn't enough. Here's the science behind that, and the full ingredient list — no vague "proprietary blend."
Four types of hyaluronic acid, four different jobs
Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer
Smooths and helps form a moisture-trapping layer on the surface.
Sodium Hyaluronate
The classic, well-studied form of hyaluronic acid.
Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
Modified for better skin affinity and longer-lasting hydration.
Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate
The smallest of the four we use.
Together, these four work differently instead of doing the same job four times over — which is the whole reason we didn't just pick one.
