Skin Still Feels Dry After Serum? Get to Know Serum vs. Moisturizer
Applied your serum, but your skin feels tight again a little later? It may be time to look at how your routine supports moisture.
Serum: Choose for your specific concerns
Serums are often lightweight. Depending on the formula, they may focus on hydration, uneven skin tone, or fine lines.
But the word ‘serum’ doesn’t promise the same benefits in every bottle. Check the ingredients and product information.
Moisturizer: Help your skin hold on to water
A moisturizing cream helps maintain hydration and reduce water loss. If your skin feels tight after cleansing or while spending time in air conditioning, pay attention to its moisturizing needs.
Do you need both?
Not necessarily. Serum is an optional addition, and your routine should suit your skin and the formulas you use.
When using both, serum generally comes before moisturizer. During the day, remember sun protection too.
