Benefits of Using Serums in Your Skincare Routine

Hydration and Balance

Serums are potent solutions designed to deliver powerful ingredients directly into the skin. One of the standout benefits is hydration. Serums provide intense moisture, helping to keep your skin plump and glowing. Additionally, they help balance your skin’s pH levels, creating an ideal environment for healthy skin.

Deep Penetration and Purification

Fundamentals Skincare’s serums are formulated to penetrate deeply into the skin, allowing them to deliver active ingredients more effectively. This deep penetration helps remove impurities and prepares your skin for better absorption of subsequent products like moisturisers and sunscreens.

Addressing Skin Concerns

Whether you are dealing with oiliness, dryness, uneven texture, or signs of ageing, our serums are designed to tackle these issues. Each serum in our range is tailored to meet specific skin needs, ensuring that your skin looks and feels its best.

How to Use a Face Serum

Step-by-Step Guide:

  • Cleanse: Begin with a gentle cleanser that suits your skin type. Use out our gentle cleansers.
  • Tone: Apply a toner to help balance your skin’s pH levels. Explore our range of toners.
  • Apply Serum: Use a few drops of serum and apply it to your face and neck. Gently pat the serum into your skin for maximum absorption. Whether you’re into the 2% Alpha Arbutin + 2% Licorice Extract Serum or the 15% Vitamin C Serum we have a serum for all your skincare needs.
