Between oils, essences, moisturisers and all the other steps in your skincare routine, it can be hard to keep track of what’s essential and what’s simply the latest trend.
Ultra-lightweight and packed full of active skincare ingredients, serums are a must-have skincare product for every skin type. They are the cocktails of the beauty world, crafted to suit all of your skin’s needs.
What does a serum do to the skin?
Unlike your facial oil or day creams, the best serums are usually formulated without emollients, which means they’re able to absorb more deeply and easily into your skin, instead of sitting on the surface. They form a protective barrier of hydration and seal in the nutritional benefits of all your other beauty products.Who should use a skin serum?
You should be using a skin serum if any of the following apply...You want to address a specific concern
Serums are a smart skincare solution, targeting both specific and broader skin concerns. Is your skin looking dull or feeling dehydrated? Or maybe you’re battling acne scarring or dark spots. Either way, a skin serum can absolutely help.
