FAQs On Face Serums for Glowing Skin

1. How do I choose a face serum?

Be mindful of your skin type. For example, if your skin is oily and acne prone, pick a face serum with retinol and salicylic acid. If you have dry and sensitive skin, go for serums with hyaluronic acid and vitamin C.

2. Can I leave the serum overnight?

You can apply face serum(s) both at night and in the morning. They don’t exactly replace your moisturizer but enhance its moisturizing properties.

3. Which one is better for glowing skin: serum or toner?

While a face serum addresses particular skin issues, including dry patches or wrinkles, toners help maintain the pH balance of the skin. Toners are exfoliants and include chemicals that balance the skin, whilst serums have highly concentrated active ingredients.

4. Can I massage my face after applying serum?

For best results, a serum must be massaged into the skin after application, as opposed to a moisturizer that can be applied directly to the skin.

5. What should I do before and after the face serum to get glowing skin?

For best results, apply the serum of freshly cleansed skin and always apply a moisturizer after it absorbs into your skin.

6. Can I use face serum under my eyes?

Yes! Serums, creams, and other beauty products are safe to use around the eyes, but you must be sure that whatever product you are using does not contain harsh chemicals. For those with sensitive skin or specific disorders, some products may include substances that are too harsh to use near the eyes.
