Essences, serums, ampoules, masks: How to choose the most suitable skin care products?
Various beauty essences, serums, ampoules for skin care… The
range of skin care products is so wide and varied that it is easy to get
confused in front of a large selection. What are the differences between these
instruments and in what cases are they intended? Pharmacy beauty consultant Natalia
Gavrilchenko.
The beauty consultant explains that the range of
dermatological cosmetics is very wide. Various sera are available, as well as
ampoules and essences. These products have many more active ingredients and
their concentration is much higher, so the effect is much stronger.
However, in order to choose the most suitable skin care
products for you, you should first understand what your skin type and condition
is, and what is the problem that worries you and what we want to solve. It is
also important to understand the use and purpose of different products - what
they can give our skin and when they should be used. Once these parameters are
clear, we can then find the most suitable means.
Essences for skin care
The essence has a slightly thicker consistency than the
tonic, it penetrates deep into the skin and gives it a long-lasting
moisturizing effect. The essence should not be placed on a cotton swab, but on
the hands and then applied to cleansed skin. It is intended for tired skin, as
it restores radiance and texture, as well as perfectly moisturizes the skin.
Essences are most often used for tired, dehydrated skin. The
essences are also useful in cases where there is work in the kitchen (chefs,
confectioners) or other irritants in daily work, such as a hair dryer for
hairdressers or work in night shifts. The essences are used to moisturize the
skin as much as possible and keep the skin moist for as long as possible.
Serums
Serum contains up to 85% active ingredients. It is
recommended to use them as a course and regularly, for example, every three
months. However, not all sera can be used alone. Many products require a cream
present over the serum for maximum results. The serums have a strong skin
moisturizing ability, because their ingredients - vitamins and plant extracts -
provide the skin with a rich nourishment and create an ideal environment for
the skin to regenerate and be beautiful and healthy.
Ampoules
Ampoules for skin care are a very concentrated product,
which usually needs to be used within a short period of time after opening.
That is why this product is also chosen in this form. Ampoules are designed to
solve specific skin problems, such as enlarged pores, wrinkles, lack of
elasticity, skin rejuvenation and others.
The contents of the ampoules should be applied to the face
with light finger movements, and remember to apply the cream with a protective
filter even after using the ampoules.
Don't forget the basics of daily care!
Remember that a daily routine is very important for the
beauty of your skin! Any skin should be cleansed twice a day - morning and
evening, and a deep cleansing (scrub or peeling) should be performed once a
week. After deep cleansing, it is recommended to apply a deep moisturizing
mask. This way the effect will be much greater!
On the other hand, when choosing face masks, remember that
hydration is important at all ages! But if you want added value, then look for
products that contain peptides!
