FAQs
What does a face serum do?
A face serum is a lightweight skincare product that delivers powerful ingredients deep into your skin. Serums target specific concerns like hydration, aging, acne or brightening. For example, a hyaluronic acid serum helps lock in moisture, keeping your skin plump and hydrated, while the best retinol serum can reduce fine lines and wrinkles while diminishing dark spots caused by hyperpigmentation.
Serums are more concentrated than other skincare products, which makes them super effective for improving your skin’s appearance. With regular use, serums can help your skin look smoother, firmer, and more even-toned.
Do you apply serums before moisturizer?
Yes, you should apply face serum before your moisturizer. After cleansing your face with a face wash, apply the serum on clean, dry skin. This allows the active ingredients in the serum to penetrate deeply.
Follow up with a moisturizer and finish with a Face Oil to lock in the serum’s benefits and keep your skin hydrated. This layering helps create a protective barrier that seals in moisture and enhances the overall effectiveness of your skincare routine.
Which serums should I use in the morning?
In the morning, serums that hydrate and protect your skin from environmental damage are best. A hyaluronic acid serum is perfect for morning use because it moisturizes your skin throughout the day. Our moisturizer is loaded with Astaxanthin, one of the world’s most powerful antioxidants that neutralizes free radicals from blue light to help minimize dark spots and UV/HEV-related damage. Always apply this under your SPF for added protection.
These serums not only help to improve your skin's texture but also give you a healthy, radiant glow that lasts all day. Make sure to follow up with sunscreen to keep your skin protected.
Which serums should I use at night?
At night, your skin goes into repair mode, so it's the best time to use serums that focus on renewal and anti-aging. Retinol serums are ideal for nighttime use, as they improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars but may cause temporary sun sensitivity. You can also try the EGF serum, which supports skin regeneration and boosts elasticity while you sleep.
How long does it take to see results from using a serum?
The time it takes to see results from using a serum can vary depending on the type of serum and your skin concerns. Generally, you may start noticing improvements, like better hydration or a more radiant complexion, within a few days to a week. For serums targeting fine lines, acne, or dark spots, it may take 4-6 weeks of consistent use to see more noticeable changes. Be patient, and remember that regularly using the right serums will lead to the best results.
