There are many doubts when identifying whether our skin needs a Moisturizing Cream or needs a Serum.
Very few people know what the differences are between these two products. That's why today I'm going to help you answer questions like: What are its benefits? Which product is better? Which one should I use?
To begin, I am going to tell you in a very simple way what the properties of each of these products are:
Moisturizing Cream
🗸Thicker texture that provides hydration and nutrition to the skin.
🗸Protect the skin from external agents.
🗸Its absorption may be slower and it acts on the outermost layer of the skin.
Serum
🗸They are light textures with concentrated formulas for specific skin needs
(expression lines, lack of luminosity, spots, etc.).
🗸They are formulas of rapid absorption and penetration.
🗸They are in dropper presentation since being concentrated it is enough to use it in small doses.
So what are the differences between a moisturizing cream and a serum?
The texture of the serum is lighter than a moisturizing cream, so the serum can be absorbed much faster.
The penetration of the Serum is much deeper, reaching the dermis, while the moisturizer acts on the epidermis, which is the superficial layer.
As for the results, the serum tends to work on a specific objective (signs of age, spots, irritation), while the moisturizer generates a protective layer of hydration and nutrition.
Now with this information, what is best for my skin?
As you have noticed, they are not exclusive products, they are really two complementary products and their work together can help enhance specific benefits of your skin and improve the hydration of different areas of the skin such as They are the face, neck, neckline and eye area.
Benefits of using moisturizing cream and serum on our feetl
While the Serum acts in the deepest layer of the skin, the Moisturizer helps seal the action of the Serum while protecting, nourishing and hydrating the deepest layer surface of our skin.
The serum will help us to work on specific skin problems, while the moisturizer complements the action of the serum by protecting the skin from external agents and enhancing the moisturizing effect of the skin.
How to use the Serum and Moisturizing Cream in my routine?
The first step is to cleanse our face with the Purifying Facial Cleanser to ensure that we eliminate impurities and thus prepare the skin so that it can absorb the benefits of the other ingredients.
Once the skin is clean but slightly damp, we apply the Intensive Anti-Aging Serum, this will help the serum retain the skin's moisture and act deeply. Remember that you can apply the Serum to the face, neck, décolleté and as an eye contour treatment.
Finally, to seal the action of the serum, hydrate and protect our skin, we apply the Day Moisturizer, which will be absorbed very quickly without leaving a greasy feeling on the skin.
Try this routine that, in addition to being very natural, is very effective! Follow these steps to have radiant, nourished, hydrated skin every day!
