Most of times those who got on the skincare routine game frequently get wrongly identified as the steps. Especially when it’s regarding serums and moisturiser. So one thing you have to remember is the fact that both of these products work differently. The serum works into the deepest layers of your skin so it can offer intensive care internally. Meanwhile, the moisturiser only utilizes a outermost layer of the skin and keeps the skin hydrated.
With having said that, here are facts and myths when it comes to applying your serum.
Myths
1. You don’t need to cleanse the face thoroughly before applying the serum.
2. No need to wear sunscreen after using the serum during the day.
3. You are able to skip the toner and straight use the serum.
4. The serum are only able to be used daily with the littlest amount.
5. You can use the serum by any means you want, don’t have to stick to the routine.
6. Don’t have to massage and rub the serum evenly on the skin.
Facts
1. Serum should be applied after the face is cleansed and once the toner step is used. This makes the active component in the serum absorb better into the skin without having to be obstructed by any impurities or dead skin cells.
2. The serum will disintegrate when subjected to ultraviolet rays so ensure the use of serum is definitely accompanied by moisturiser and sunscreen.
3. Toner (water-based type) helps the serum to soak up into the skin better.
4. For better effect, make use of the serum twice a day. Once throughout the day and the other during the night preferably before bed.
5. The correct order of use with regards to the serum is like this: Cleansing, Toner, Essence, Serum, Moisturiser and Sunscreen. If the serum is much more watery compared to essence you'll be able to use the serum first accompanied by essence and additional products.
6. Gently massage the face area after using the serum as it helps to increase the rate of serum absorption into the skin.
