Hydrating Serum

Hydrating serums are lightweight skincare products designed to increase moisture at the skin’s surface and reduce dry or tight-feeling skin. Common ingredients include hyaluronic acid, glycerin and panthenol, while some formulas also include ceramides, soothing ingredients or fragrance-free options for sensitive skin. Hyaluronic acid is widely used in serums because it retains water. Apply a small amount after cleansing and before cream or sunscreen. A serum can add hydration, but very dry skin may still need a richer moisturiser to help retain moisture. Choose the texture according to your skin type, avoid known irritants and discontinue use if persistent redness or irritation occurs.
