4 of the best Serums

Serums are a great in-between product to add to your regime between cleansing/toning and moisturising. But what are they exactly? A beauty serum is a skincare product specifically designed to deliver ingredients directly to your skin. It’s made up of smaller molecules to allow for deeper penetration, which is why they’re often recommended as an anti-ageing skincare solution to target wrinkles and fine lines. You should still finish your regime with a moisturiser though, because not only will this further hydrate your skin, it will create a barrier to keep the moisture in (and the bad stuff out!).

It’s also worth mentioning that the line between serums and face oils is becoming increasingly blurred as oils grow in popularity – traditional serums are water-based, but again, you should find an option that works for your skin. But oil-based serums should go on after the moisturiser, because the molecules are of the bigger, barrier-forming variety. Personally, I use a serum every night before bed before my face cream, and because my skin is quite dry, I really notice a difference if I skip it! Ready to give one a try for yourself?
