Discoloration Correcting Serum with Tranexamic Acid & Niacinamide – 30 ml, Korean Beauty

No, while serums have an important place in your face care routine, they are not a substitute for the three essential products: cleanser, sunscreen and moisturiser. Not all serums are meant to hydrate, so be sure to apply your usual moisturiser after using them! Serums only make your skin care routine more effective, more complete.

This is simply because they contain more active ingredients and are often more complex and expensive to make. But don’t let this put you off, as you only need a few drops of these products at a time, so they are economical despite their smaller size. It could easily happen that you need to buy, for example, cleanser or moisturiser more often than face serums, even if you use them daily.

Yes, although it’s important to wait a few minutes between the application of each product for it to soak in and only then apply the next one! Use only a maximum of 2-3 serums at the same time, and start with the application of the lighter, more watery formulas and finish with the fuller, oilier ones.

No, face serums, like creams, are “leave-in” cosmetics, so they should remain on the skin and should not be washed off, so they can be absorbed properly and work properly. There is one exception to this rule: if you experience irritation, burning or redness, then wash off the product immediately, as your skin may be sensitive to some of the active ingredients.

Of course, there is no specific age limit, an anti-acne serum can be used as early as your teenage years, while serums containing anti-wrinkle ingredients are mostly recommended for people over the age of 30. The key is that your face care routine should not only consist of serums, but also of other good quality cosmetics that work together to make your skin healthy and glowing.
