To get the best from any serum, apply it on clean, slightly damp skin before moisturizer. This lets active ingredients like Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, or Niacinamide absorb better. Always finish with sunscreen in the morning.
Wash with a gentle, sulphate-free cleanser to remove dirt and oil. Clean skin helps the serum sink in instead of sitting on top.
Use a pH-balancing toner or a light facial mist. Damp skin draws active ingredients deeper for more even results.
Dispense 2-3 drops onto your fingertips, warm between palms, then pat across face and neck. Focus on dull or uneven areas and avoid rubbing to reduce irritation.
Let the serum absorb for about a minute before applying moisturizer. In the daytime, finish with broad-spectrum SPF 50. Store serums in a cool, dark place to maintain potency.
Pick a serum that matches your skin concern, or use one in the morning and another at night.
| Skin concern | Recommended active | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Brightening, uneven tone | Vitamin C | Vitamin C Skin Brightening Face Serum |
| Hydration, dryness | Hyaluronic Acid | Sandalwood & Hyaluronic Acid Glow and Hydrating Sunscreen Serum SPF50+ |
| Pigmentation, dark spots | Licorice, Kojic Acid | Licorice and Kojic Acid De-Pigmentation Face Serum |
Start slowly with new actives to ensure your skin tolerates them. Avoid layering multiple strong serums with the same ingredient, like two Vitamin C products, to reduce the chance of irritation. A single targeted serum usually gives the best results.

1. Can I use face serum every day?
Yes, most serums are designed for daily use. Apply twice a day unless the formula advises otherwise or contains strong actives like retinol.
2. Should I use serum before or after moisturizer?
Always apply serum before moisturizer so that concentrated actives absorb better into clean skin.
3. How many drops of serum should I use?
Two to three drops are usually enough for your entire face and neck since serums are highly concentrated.
4. Can I layer different serums?
You can, but introduce one at a time. Avoid layering products with the same active ingredient to reduce the risk of irritation.
5. What is the best time to apply face serum?
Apply in the morning before sunscreen and at night before moisturizer for continuous benefits.
6. Do I still need moisturizer after serum?
Yes, moisturizer locks in hydration and helps seal the serum’s active ingredients for longer-lasting effects.
