Serums vs Moisturizers: Everything you need to know about Vitamin C and Serums!
I have been asked many times on Instagram the question: What's the difference between a morning serum and a morning moisturizer? How do you incorporate both in your morning skin regimen? Watch this video to learn how serums are packed with active ingredients like antioxidants that will neutralize FREE RADICALS. By doing so, these serums are "anti-aging" and will hopefully over time soften fine lines, wrinkles and dark sun spots. Serums are used in the morning, while you reserve your retinoid for your nighttime skin routine which also has anti-aging benefits.
The biggest difference between Serums and Moisturizers is that Serums are lighter in texture and thus are used BEFORE your moisturizer and its antioxidant content provides an "extra punch" to start your day and boost your skin health while moisturizers are meant to hydrate, occlude or repair your skin barrier.
We also review Vitamin C or ascorbic acid, and how our body relies on this antioxidant in various ways. Definitely keep up dietary intake of Vitamin C and consider adding a Vit C containing serum.
My favorite serums with great anti-oxidants that you can access over the counter:
1. La Roche-Posay's HyaluB5 (brings the "bounce" back effect to your skin- really plumps up your dermis and collagen in the morning) https://amzn.to/2Ys8rdn
2. Skinceuticals CE Ferrulic https://amzn.to/2zTacG9
3. CeraVe Vitamin C Serum (good intro to world of Serums, very affordable) https://amzn.to/2zVQ8TH
4. CeraVe hyaluronic acid serum https://amzn.to/3c17Tz5
Then follow with a good moisturizer like Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel https://amzn.to/3b0rVs3 and then your favorite SPF (my favorite being EltaMD's UV Clear https://amzn.to/35soIAt).
This being the fourth video, I am proud to say that I am teaching you the foundation for any solid skincare regimen for any age group. You want a good MOISTURIZER, SUNSCREEN, RETINOID and if you want to fine-tune your goals to target photo-aged skin, you add on a SERUM! This series of videos will cover the foundation to achieving your skin care goals!
