FAQs
1. WHAT IS A CREAM?
Face creams/moisturizers moisturize your skin. They are of a thicker consistency compared to serum because they are made to create a physical barrier that locks in hydration and prevents skin from drying out
It’s important to keep your skin must be moisturized always because when your skin lacks moisture, it is far more likely to develop issues like irritation and inflammation than skin that is healthy and moisturized. Face creams are beneficial for all skin types, even oily/acne-prone skin. Though an oily skin can keep itself moisturized by producing a lot of sebum, the hydrating properties of the facial cream will help balance out the skin so that sebum produced does not clog your pores.
A high-quality facial cream can make your skin look soft and supple and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When your skin is hydrated and plump, it starts looking more youthful and flawless.
2. WHAT IS A FACE SERUM?
Serums are typically lightweight formulations that deliver actives
They contain high concentrations of nutrients and other compounds meant to nourish your skin. A serum may be the form of a lotion, gel, or oil.
Facial serums penetrate deep into the skin so that even the deeper layers of the skin can absorb a serum’s nutrients.
3. DO I NEED TO USE A SERUM?
Some creams have added ingredients for specific needs to work in synergy with serums, so they do double duty for your skin. But to really address a difficult skincare problem you need to combine a face cream with a quality serum.
4. WHICH PRODUCTS SHOULD I USE?
Your daily skin care routine should consist of these 5 products: Cleanser, toner, serum, cream followed by a good sunscreen.
5. IN WHAT ORDER SHOULD I USE THE PRODUCTS?
After washing the face, it is good to use a toner to remove any dirt that may be left behind.
Then serums, moisturizers and oils should be applied starting with the lightest formulas.
Serums are thin and full of active ingredients so they should be used first in order to drive the active ingredients deep into the skin, then you follow the serum with the thicker product, creams. The daily routine should always end with a good sunscreen with high SPF to protect the skin form sun damage.

It depends on many factors eg. how long you have had the skin problem for, the type of problem it is, your skin type, your age and even your diet in some cases. The longer the problem has been there, the longer you must use the products before you can see results. However, some issues are easy to rectify so they don’t take long to correct.
