Collection: Face serums

Face serums, which have become popular in the beauty market, have become an indispensable step in skin care, practically on every woman's cosmetic table you can find more than one face serum. In their compositions you can definitely find the strongest anti-wrinkle ingredients used in cosmetics - retinol, vitamin C, hyaluron, niacinamide and other popular ingredients. More recently, serums with peptides have also become popular. You can also find serums with gold or caviar, but the effectiveness of these substances is really questionable.

Face serum or face cream: which is better?

There is a prevailing belief that a serum for the face is a stronger remedy than a face cream. Theoretically, a serum should be a better remedy than a cream, characterized by a higher concentration of certain substances, but often manufacturers introduce serum into their product line more to increase sales. Often, a face cream is not much different from a serum, it happens that the composition of a cream is better than that of a serum. Therefore, when choosing face serums, you should really be careful and pay attention to what is added to such a product.

What is the most effective serum for the face?

It primarily depends on what kind of product your skin needs. Are you just interested in a facial serum for wrinkles or are you looking for some specific product to solve skin problems ? For dehydrated skin, you always want to choose products with ingredients that really moisturize well. The best moisturizing serum will definitely contain more than one moisturizer, including hyaluronic acid, ceramides, niacinamide, amino acids, glycerin, etc. Serums for age spots should contain not only vitamin C, which is famous as a brightening substance, but also other effective helpers - arbutin, AHA acids, azelaic acid, niacinamide and other substances, but the choice of substances against pigmentation is really quite limited.

What are the best serum choices for oily skin?

It would seem that oily skin can only use serums with a gel consistency, but in many cases they may be too little. Sometimes you should also choose serums with a light creamy texture, so that the hydration is more intense and lasts longer. Products for oily mature skin should contain not only moisturizing ingredients, but also anti-aging ingredients that help fight age-related changes.

What are the options for dry skin?

For such skin, all the ingredients discussed above are suitable for a serum, but you can always add more. If the serum contains beneficial natural oils, such a product will definitely be more effective for dry skin. Natural oil is a complete friend of dry skin. It will not only moisturize well, but also saturate the skin with fatty acids and other substances that will help maintain good dry skin condition.

Effective ingredients for reducing capillaries

Unfortunately, there are no cosmetic ingredients that can destroy damaged capillaries. However, there are several ingredients that act preventively and reduce broken capillaries and allow them to “hide” to some extent. Vitamin C is always a good tool for such prevention. Maybe niacinamide would also help a little, but gentle care is especially important for skin with superficial capillaries – no mechanical intervention, no cold or heat, using only lukewarm water for washing, etc. Gentle care for such skin is more than necessary.

Price – is a more expensive serum really better?

We often crave those expensive products, thinking that they will work better than a cheap product. However, the price of cosmetics does not always reflect its true value. Of course, a serum for a few euros will not be enriched with an effective amount of beneficial substances, but this does not mean that a super expensive serum will be incomparably more effective than mid-priced products. Always read the product composition when buying in a store or online. It's a similar situation with beauty product names. The words firming or moisturizing in a product name don't necessarily mean that the product will have that effect. You need to look at the ingredients to make sure that the product has the ability to firm, moisturize, soothe, or otherwise affect human skin.
