Skincare serums are effective products used to nourish, hydrate, and protect your skin. Over the past few years, they have become an integral part of everyone’s skincare routine. We’ve compiled the essential information about skincare serums for you.

What Are Skincare Serums? How Are They Applied?

Skincare serums are intensive care products that deeply penetrate your skin and contain concentrated active ingredients. They provide many benefits, such as nourishing, hydrating, rejuvenating your skin, reducing blemishes, and evening out your skin tone. They are applied to cleansed and toned skin, followed by a moisturizer to complete your skincare routine.

What Benefits Do Active Ingredients in Skincare Serums Provide?

  • AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids): Smoothens your skin and reduces blemishes by exfoliating dead skin cells on the surface.
  • Hyaluronic Acid: Hydrates, plumps, and reduces wrinkles.
  • BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acids): Cleans pores, prevents acne, and reduces the oily, matte appearance of your skin.
  • Alpha Arbutin: Reduces blemishes, evens out skin tone, and promotes a radiant complexion.
  • Azelaic Acid: Treats acne and rosacea, reduces blemishes, and evens skin tone.
  • Salicylic Acid: Cleans pores, prevents acne, and balances oil production, providing a matte appearance.
  • Glycolic Acid: Renews skin, boosts collagen production, and reduces fine lines.
  • Retinol: Reduces wrinkles and blemishes, evens skin tone, and supports cell renewal.
  • Resveratrol: Known for its antioxidant properties, it protects skin from free radicals and reduces signs of aging.
  • Caffeine: Reduces under-eye bags and puffiness while revitalizing the skin.
  • Tea Tree Oil: Prevents acne and fights bacteria on the skin.
  • Ginseng: Nourishes, revitalizes, and rejuvenates the skin.
  • Liposomal Vitamin C: Protects against free radicals with antioxidant properties and evens out skin tone.

Which Skin Types Should Choose Which Serums?

  • Dry Skin: Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E, or oil-based serums.
  • Oily and Acne-Prone Skin: Serums with Salicylic Acid or Tea Tree Oil.
  • Blemished Skin: Alpha Arbutin, Azelaic Acid, or Vitamin C serums.
  • Sensitive Skin: Should avoid intense active ingredients like Retinol and prefer lighter, hypoallergenic serums.

How Are Skincare Serums Used in a Routine?

Skincare serums address various needs like hydration, exfoliation, blemish reduction, acne care, and skin renewal with their unique formulations. Generally, they are the third step in a skincare routine, as shown below:

  1. Cleansing: Use a suitable cleanser for your skin type, lather, rinse thoroughly, and pat dry gently.
  2. Toning: Balance your skin’s pH with a toner. For blemishes, try the Pure Choice Blemish-Preventing & Skin Brightening Toner. For acne-prone skin, opt for the Pure Choice Anti-Acne & Pore Tightening Toner.
  3. Applying Serum: Use the dropper to apply 3–4 drops to your face and neck. Gently massage in with your fingertips.
  4. Moisturizing: Allow the serum to absorb fully before applying a suitable moisturizer. If it’s your morning routine, don’t forget sunscreen before heading out.
