Face Serum | What is it?
ViOX Facial Serum
What is a face serum? A face serum is a clear, liquid beauty product often formulated to target a specific problem such as wrinkles, firming, age spots and discolorations. Serums can address needs that aren’t covered by a moisturizer.
The structure of the molecules in a face serum is generally smaller than that of a moisturizer, which allows the serum to penetrate deeper than a regular moisturizer. Face serums are generally lighter in texture than moisturizer and can have higher levels of active ingredients. Using a serum has some advantages such as the quick absorption into the skin and they are often non-conflicting with other bases since serums can be oil free and not flake like gels.
Serums should be used along with a good moisturizer, as most serums do not have moisturizing ingredients. Moisturizers give the additional emollients that extra dry skin may need.
As mentioned before Serums contain concentrated active ingredients. As such, you may notice they often come with a heftier price tag than the average moisturizer. These active ingredients while it may make the Serum more expensive, you only need to use a small amount on your face. This being the case, it will last longer.
Serum should always be applied to a freshly cleansed skin, this allows the serum to soak into your skin well before you apply your moisturizer.
After cleansing your face, pat your skin with a towel, gently apply a smaIl amount (a few drops is sufficient) of the serum. Serums often come in a gel or oil format, and while you may find they provide some moisturization, often you’ll still need to use your cream or lotion on top of the serum. Be sure to apply the serum directly onto your skin rather than mixing a few drops into your moisturizer. It’s the direct application of the concentrated serum that will garner you the best results.
