A serum is a specialized skincare product designed to deliver high concentrations of active ingredients deep into the skin. Unlike moisturizers, which primarily hydrate the surface, serums have smaller molecules that penetrate more effectively. Here’s what serums typically do: 1. Target Specific Skin Concerns Serums are formulated to address issues like: - Aging (wrinkles, fine lines) – with ingredients like retinol, peptides, or vitamin C. - Hyperpigmentation/Dark Spots – using niacinamide, vitamin C, or alpha arbutin. - Acne & Breakouts – with salicylic acid, niacinamide, or tea tree oil. - Dehydration/Dryness – containing hyaluronic acid or glycerin. - Redness &...

A serum is a specialized skincare product designed to deliver high concentrations of active ingredients deep into the skin. Unlike moisturizers, which primarily hydrate the surface, serums have smaller molecules that penetrate more effectively. Here’s what serums typically do:

1. Target Specific Skin Concerns
Serums are formulated to address issues like:
– Aging (wrinkles, fine lines) – with ingredients like retinol, peptides, or vitamin C.
– Hyperpigmentation/Dark Spots – using niacinamide, vitamin C, or alpha arbutin.
– Acne & Breakouts – with salicylic acid, niacinamide, or tea tree oil.
– Dehydration/Dryness – containing hyaluronic acid or glycerin.
– Redness & Sensitivity – with soothing agents like centella asiatica or aloe vera, often produced in a cosmetic factory china.

2. Provide Intense Treatment
Since serums are more concentrated than creams or lotions, they offer stronger, faster results for specific problems.

3. Enhance Skin Hydration & Nourishment
Some serums (like hyaluronic acid-based ones) attract and retain moisture, while others (like vitamin E or antioxidant serums) protect and repair the skin.

4. Prep Skin for Better Absorption
Because of their lightweight texture, serums help other products (like moisturizers and sunscreens) absorb better when layered correctly.

How to Use a Serum?
– Apply after cleansing and toning, but before moisturizing.
– A few drops are usually enough (no need for heavy application).
– Best used in the AM/PM, depending on ingredients (e.g., vitamin C in the morning, retinol at night).
