Alright ya’ll ! I’m not getting any younger! This year I have become a bit obsessed with serums. I always have used moisturizer in the my skincare, and now I have added Serums. The secret weapon that I have been missing! I’m not sure if facial serums have always been popular, but I have seen so much advertisement for them this year. The best part is, there is a serum out there for every skin type.
I have been using serums for the majority of this year, and let me share my experience.
They Rehydrate your skin
I go through different period during the year where my skin dries out OR I realized I am have not been drinking a lot of water. Adding a serum to my skincare routine keeps my skin hydrated where I don’t run into too much dry skin as I used to.
They do NOT make your skin oily
I thought that using serums would make my skin oily but it actually does quite the opposite! It’s like it soaks up the bad oils and keeps my skin naturally nourished. I have never felt oily due to serums.
Variety of Serums for your Skin Type
The best things is, if there is a serum that may not be right for you, there are so many serums to choose from! To find the best serum, get to know your skin type first, and also think of what you want to target. Is it wrinkles, dark spots etc?
You can LAYER Serums
YES! I didn’t know this. You can have multiple serums for your face and its not putting too much! This is where I Like to combine the serums to target different things like wrinkles or just so my skin is hydrated.
Serums Contain more active ingredients
Serums go into the skin much faster than moisturizer, which is one of the reasons why serums are more powerful. They can contain more potent ingredients that get to your imperfections faster.
They go on Light
Unlike moisturizers, serums are much lighter! They soak into your skin faster and thus you don’t feel it heavy.
I recommend you trying Drunk Elephant , Ampersand, The Seaweed, or Saranghae as part of your skincare routine!
What other GREAT serums should I add into my skincare routine?
