Can I use Hydrolyzed Ginseng Saponins with Sodium Hyaluronate?
Works well together
Hydrolyzed Ginseng Saponins and Sodium Hyaluronate are generally compatible and can be layered in the same routine. As always, introduce one new active at a time and watch how your skin responds.
- ✓Enzymatic or acid hydrolysis of intact Panax ginseng saponins (ginsenosides) produces smaller, more bioavailable aglycone forms (Rh1, Rh2, Rg3, compound K) that penetrate the stratum corneum more readily than native ginsenosides
- ✓Hydrolyzed ginsenosides retain and in some cases exceed the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin-brightening activity of the parent saponins — with the added benefit of reduced molecular weight for topical delivery
- ✓Stimulates collagen synthesis and inhibits matrix metalloproteinases in fibroblasts, supporting anti-aging and skin firming effects consistent with ginseng's longstanding reputation in East Asian skincare
