How To Apply Face Serum?

Serums are concentrated skincare products that can target specific concerns and improve your skin's overall health. Here's how to apply face serum (Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid or others) for best results:

Cleanse and Prep Your Skin

Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. Pat your face dry with a clean towel. This ensures a clean base for the serum to penetrate effectively.

Take Small Amount of Serum

Since most serums are concentrated, a little goes a long way. Begin with a pea-sized amount (about 3-4 drops) for your entire face and neck. You can always apply more if needed, but it's better to start with less to avoid irritation.

Warm It Up (Optional)

Rubbing the serum between your palms can slightly warm it up, potentially improving absorption. This step is optional, but some find it beneficial.

Gently Apply with hands or dropper

Dab the serum onto your face and neck using your fingertips. Use a tapping motion to gently press the serum into your skin. Avoid dragging or rubbing, which can irritate your skin. You can also use dropper to apply the serum on face.

Focus on Areas of Concern

Pay extra attention to areas where you have specific concerns, such as wrinkles or dark spots. The serum can target these areas more effectively with focused application.

Wait for Absorption

Allow the serum to absorb completely before applying moisturizer or other skincare products. This usually takes about 30 seconds to a minute. Patience is key to ensure the serum penetrates deeply into your skin.

Additional Tips

• Apply serum as part of your morning and/or evening routine, depending on the product's instructions. Some serums are formulated for daytime use with antioxidants, while others target concerns like wrinkles and are better suited for nighttime use.
• If you have sensitive skin, do a patch test on your inner arm before applying the serum to your entire face. This helps identify any potential allergic reactions.
• Store your serum in a cool, dark place to maintain its potency. Light and heat can degrade the ingredients in your serum, so proper storage is essential.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your face serum is absorbed effectively and delivers its full benefits to your skin. Happy glowing!
