Healthy and well-groomed facial skin is the dream of women of all ages. We are ready to spend a lot of money and buy dozens of small bottles full of sweet promises that will save the skin from all problems, rejuvenate it and give it an unsurpassed look. Are experiments always good, and are dozens of tools necessary when one of the most effective products has been around for a long time - a face serum? Let's talk about what is its magic, why it is attributed so many virtues and whether the tool can really live up to expectations.
Why do you need a face serum?
Serum is a highly concentrated product with active substances that has an intense and bright effect. As a rule, the active formula of the serum consists of a number of active substances that are aimed at solving a specific problem. It follows that the face serum should not be chosen according to the type of skin, but according to the problem you want to solve. Depending on the composition, the product can solve the following tasks:- cell regeneration and an increase in the density of the epidermis
- restoration of water-lipid balance, active moisturizing and protection from dehydration
- smoothing wrinkles, lifting and rejuvenation
- lightening of pigment spots, antioxidant protection
- synthesis of collagen
How to use a face serum?
The product can significantly improve the condition of the skin if you know how to use it correctly. The first thing to remember is that serum is not a product that should be used alone. It will not replace the cream, but will complement it. The main feature of the serum is high bioavailability. It is able to penetrate deeper layers of the skin than a cream, thereby exerting a more intense effect. The task of the cream is to moisturize the surface layers of the skin. That is why you cannot skip the stage of applying the ego. Let's consider how to apply the product correctly to get a tangible effect:- the composition is applied exclusively to the cleansed skin of the face and neck. Before applying the serum in the morning, remove the remains of cosmetics or night care. For this, any of your favorite means will do - from foam for washing to hydrophilic oil or micellar water
- after cleansing, do not forget to tone the skin. The toning process restores the water-lipid balance after skin contact with tap water
- distribute a moisturizing, rejuvenating serum for the face, or any other that you use along the massage lines, without stretching the skin
- allow the product to be completely absorbed. This may take from 5 to 20 minutes. In particular, if the serum is oil-based, after 20 minutes you can wipe off its remains with a paper napkin. And only after that apply your usual face cream
