Overview

Every serum is different and has different benefits, ranging from acne reduction to dry skin relief. No matter which serum you use, this secret skincare weapon can really help protect your skin and boost its defenses against aging and stress. If a moisturizer helps prevent skin dehydration, a face serum is ideal if you want your skin to look and feel younger and better.

What is a serum?

Serums are skin care products that are designed to deliver high concentrations of specific active ingredients to the skin. Serums can be full of moisturizing ingredients (hyaluronic acid, ceramides) that help the skin retain moisture. People with naturally oily skin or under a moisturizer can use serums on their own to protect normal to dry skin from moisture levels. 

Serum or moisturizer? Which skin care is more effective?

Serums are thinner and lighter than moisturizers and have a greater variety of functions. A serum usually has smaller molecules combined with a high concentration of ingredients designed to penetrate, improve and/or nourish the skin in some way. A moisturizer’s job is to hydrate the skin and prevent water loss. Moisturizers are especially suitable for those with dry skin or those who live in dry climates. This makes them a great tool for addressing specific skin care problems like wrinkles. Serums are a great solution for uneven skin tone, fine lines, dull skin and many other skin problems. when your skin gets dry or your environment dries up, you will find that you need both a serum and a moisturizer.
