Face Serum

The facial serum is a treatment concentrated in active ingredients that targets specific skin concerns such as hydration, wrinkles, pigmentation spots, or loss of radiance. Indeed, there is a facial serum for each skin concern, to be applied before the moisturizing cream. Using a facial serum adds a step to your skincare routine to achieve more beautiful and brighter skin.

What is a periodic serum?

Each month, hormones secreted by the ovaries, adrenal glands, and adipose tissues fluctuate, increasing or decreasing, preparing our body for a potential pregnancy, but also affecting the skin. Dry skin, dull complexion, blemishes, increased sensitivity... it's not just our mood that's impacted by the hormonal fluctuations of the monthly cycle. These changes vary depending on the phase of the cycle, thus having specific needs. At Typology, we have developed four periodic serums for each phase of the cycle. Let's look at them in more detail here.

FAQ about face serum

How to use a facial serum?

Apply a few drops of serum to the face and neck, morning and/or evening, before your moisturizing cream. If you are using multiple face serums, start with the most watery and finish with the one having the thickest texture.

If my facial serum is moisturizing, can it replace my moisturizing cream?

No, even though it is hydrating, a face serum is a supplementary treatment to the moisturizing cream. Thanks to its occlusive properties, the moisturizing cream helps to seal in the hydration previously provided by the face serum.

How many drops of facial serum should one use?

If the serum is to be applied to the entire face and neck, two to three drops are generally recommended. If it's a targeted serum, one drop is sufficient.

Can we layer multiple face serums?

Yes, it is possible to layer multiple serums to address different skin needs, but ensure they are applied in the order of their texture, from the lightest to the thickest. Also, verify that the various serums you wish to use do not contain incompatible ingredients, such as glycolic acid and retinol for instance, which can irritate the skin if used together.

What is the shelf life of a facial serum?

On average, a serum can be used for six to twelve months after it's opened. To maintain its active ingredients, it's recommended to store it away from heat and light and ensure it's always properly closed after each use.

What are the skin issues targeted by facial serums?

Depending on the active ingredients they contain, face serums can target numerous issues: dehydration, dull complexion, blemishes, signs of aging...

Do face serums cause makeup to peel off?

This depends on the face serums and the applied makeup, but it's true that certain active ingredients commonly found in face serums, such as hyaluronic acid, can cause makeup to pill.

Are facial serums necessarily aqueous?

No, some face serums are aqueous while others have an oily texture.

Can a facial serum cause pimples?

Yes, when a facial serum is too rich for a certain skin type, it can promote the emergence of blemishes.

What is the difference between a facial serum and a toning lotion?

A toner is a light, often water-based solution, used after cleansing to rebalance the skin's pH and prepare it for further treatment. A facial serum, with a higher concentration of active ingredients, targets specific needs and is applied just before the moisturizer.
