It doesn't literally lose "air," because "air" is not what's inside.
But I know what you mean ... you want to know why it loses
pressure faster, and goes limp and saggy.
The molecules of helium are actually physically smaller than the molecules of any component of air, so they escape more readily and more often through the molecular structure of the rubber or mylar skin.
(Tentative answer) Helium atoms are smaller than the molecules in air, so they are more likely to pass through the microscopic holes (imperfections) in the latex or mylar. Over time, the net effect is that helium leaves the balloon faster.
You are probably referring to the escape of helium, He, from a sealed or knotted balloon.
Yes, helium escapes from sealed rubber balloons very much faster than air does. This is because the rubber membrane of a typical toy balloon possesses many small holes or pores, of sizes ranging from smaller than that of a helium atom, to holes thousands of times larger (but still too small to clearly see with the naked eye). He, being the second-smallest atom (next to Hydrogen), passes through many more of these holes than Nitrogen, N, the principal constituent of air and which has an atomic radius many times larger than He. There are other effects at work besides atomic size, but atomic size alone will explain most of the faster deflation seen in He balloons, compared with balloons filled with room air.
Helium atoms are smaller than air molecules. The Helium can creep between the rubber molecules in the balloon more easily and quicker than the bigger heavier air molecules.
Helium balloons are lighter than air and will float because helium is less dense than the surrounding air. Carbon dioxide balloons will not float, as carbon dioxide is denser than air. Helium is commonly used in balloons for events and parties because of its ability to make balloons float.
Helium does not react with carbon monoxide as it is a noble gas with a complete outer electron shell, making it non-reactive chemically. Helium is inert and does not form chemical bonds with other elements under normal conditions.
A helium balloon of the same material will deflate faster. Helium molecules are smaller than those in regular air, so they'll seep through tiny holes and imperfections in the skin of the balloon faster. When using the standard PIN analysis - both helium and common air balloons were found to deflate at the same rate. To the naked eye, both balloons stuck with a pin deflated with a pop. However, if the balloons are left intact, the helium balloon will deflate faster. This is because the helium molecules are small enough to pass through the rubber balloon, and they gradually leak out.
Helium atoms are smaller and lighter than air molecules, allowing the balloon to stay aloft longer. Mylar foil is impermeable, so the helium does not escape quickly. Latex balloons, on the other hand, are porous, allowing helium to seep out and the balloon to deflate faster.
Balloons are not called helium; they can be filled with helium because this gas is not flammable and has a very low density.

Helium-filled balloons typically last longer than carbon dioxide-filled balloons. Helium is a lighter gas that causes balloons to float higher and stay inflated longer due to its lower density. In contrast, carbon dioxide is heavier and escapes balloons more quickly, leading to a shorter lifespan.
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air. warming will make them float or rise up faster.

89% molecular hydrogen,and 11% helium carbon monoxide
Usually helium unless you're blowing it up yourself, then it's carbon dioxide.
Helium is lighter than air, so a balloon filled with helium will float. In contrast, air-filled balloons will sink because the density of air is greater than that of helium. Additionally, helium balloons will deflate faster than air-filled balloons due to its smaller molecular size.
People generally use helium in balloons because helium is lighter than the air in our atmosphere (mostly carbon dioxide and oxygen), so it floats. As opposed to filling it with oxygen or carbon dioxide, where it would just sink to the ground because it has the same weight as the air it is in.
10000000 helium balloons
Carbon monoxide is a gas that is both odorless and colorless.
Balloons are not called helium; they can be filled with helium because this gas is not flammable and has a very low density.
