How to Choose a Face Serum by Skin Type

1. Normal skin

I use a serum containing glycolic acid and aloe vera for various purposes.

If you have normal skin or use a serum to maintain flawless skin, use a serum containing these ingredients. Aloe vera reduces redness and makes the skin more hydrated. Glycolic acid removes dead skin cells, preventing pores from becoming clogged. The beginning of good skin is hydration.

2. Acne-prone skin

To control acne, use a serum containing Vitamin C, retinol, salicylic acid, and benzoyl peroxide. Vitamin C aids in skin regeneration, while retinol and benzoyl peroxide are powerful acne-inhibiting ingredients. Salicylic acid helps heal existing acne. This combination is effective for reducing inflammation and redness, controlling sebum production, and treating or preventing acne.

3. Dry skin

If your skin is dry, apply a serum containing glycolic acid and hyaluronic acid. Both glycolic acid and hyaluronic acid help the skin retain moisture. Together, these ingredients deliver powerful hydration that is highly effective for dry skin. The serum does not feel like a heavy moisturizer and hydrates deep into the skin within seconds.
