1. Step 1: Read the Label
Before you slather anything onto your face, it’s important to read the label and make sure you’re using the perfect serum for your skin type. Different serums contain different active ingredients that work best on different skin types. For example, if you have oily skin, you’ll prefer to opt for a face serum with ingredients like witch hazel or tea tree oil that can stimulate and control oil production. If you have dry skin, you’ll want to look for a serum with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, like Kiro’s 3% Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum.
2. Step 2: Cleanse Your Skin
In any skincare routine, cleansing is crucial as it gets rid of all the dirt and makeup from your skin. This will help your skin to absorb all the skincare actives with ease with no irritants laying on them. Wash your face with a mild cleanser. Opt for a mild cleanser; avoid using harsh cleansers, which can damage the skin’s natural oils. After you are done cleansing and your skin is free of all the pollutants, move on to the next stage.
3. Step 3: Apply the Serum
Once you’ve selected the right serum for your skin type, it’s time to apply it. Start by taking a few drops of serum on your face or into your hands. Then, gently massage the serum onto your face. Avoid the eye area, as serums can be too strong for the delicate skin around the eyes.
4. Step 4: Allow the Serum to Work
Now that you’ve applied the serum, let it get absorbed into your skin and work its magic. Letting the serum settle will help your skin absorb all its goodness without being layered on with the next step.
5. Step 5: Moisturise
Once the serum has had time to sink in, it’s time to moisturise. A moisturiser seals in the serum and keeps your skin hydrated. Apply a small layer of moisturiser to your face and neck to begin. Massage the product into your skin gently, being sure to cover the entire face.
6. Step 6: Protect Your Skin
The final step in a skincare routine is to protect your skin from the sun’s damaging rays. Harsh UV rays are the primary cause of skin damage. Hence, it is important to apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more. It will act as a shield for your skin from damaging UVA and UVB radiation.
Using a face serum is a great way to achieve glowing, youthful-looking skin. Just follow all the steps outlined above, and you’ll be on your way to beautiful skin in no time.
