A 4-Step Guide to Applying Face Serum for Best Results

1. Cleanse your skin

The first step in any skincare routine is cleansing. It clears the pores of debris, pollution, and excess oil, allowing your serum (which will be applied next) to absorb more easily. If your dermis has a normal buildup of dead-dried cells, apply a vigorous yet light exfoliation after your face wash. This intermediary process provides a clean, polished surface with a flawless shine to begin with.

2. Time for the serum

After you've thoroughly cleansed your skin, it's time to apply serum. Most serum bottles include a dropper connected to the brim that allows you to distribute the exact quantity of product. Squeeze out a drop for each region of your face, making sure the dropper does not come into contact with your skin. This is a precautionary approach to reduce contamination. Next, gently massage the serum into the skin's surface with your hands in tiny circular motions.

3. For a thicker consistency

If the serum in concern is particularly thick or dense, here's a way to help with product absorption. Apply a few drops of serum to your palms and rub them together until slightly heated. Now, dab the solution on the irritated regions.

4. Seal with moisturizer

After that, apply a large amount of your preferred moisturizer made for your skin type to your face and neck. This will help to form a protective layer on the dermis and increase the efficacy of your treatment.

Bonus Tips For Face Serums

1. Damp skin advantage- Apply your serum to skin that is damp. This allows the active ingredients to penetrate deeper into your skin, nourishing and hydrating it.

2. Massage matters- Infuse your regimen with a gentle massage while applying skin care products, especially serum. This increases blood circulation for better absorption and a relaxing effect.

3. Layering logic- Strategically layer your serums. Begin with milder formulas and work your way up to richer ones for a smooth transition and stronger base in your skincare routine.

4. Consistency is key- Make applying face serum a regular routine. Consistent usage guarantees a long-term influence, enhancing skin health and brightness. Incorporate these bonus tips for a skincare routine that truly shines.

5. Sleep on satin- Other than being luxurious, satin pillowcases are ideal for face serum. It allows your serum to stay put throughout the night as opposed to cotton pillowcases, which can absorb your serum! Before you hit the bed, wait 10 minutes for your nighttime beauty products to soak in.
