In this article, we will talk about what a face serum is, followed by a list of benefits that a face serum accords to the consumer. Then, we will dive into certain relevant products by Dermalogica India that work wonders for your skin.
For decades, moisturizers have been the only skincare products that work to hydrate your skin from deep within. Along came face serums to moisturize your skin further while ensuring you reap a plethora of other benefits.
What is a face serum?
A face serum is a water or gel-based skincare product that is a concentrated form of active ingredients like vitamin C. It is topically applied, lighter, easily absorbed, and shows results in a shorter time frame.
It is applied to the skin right after cleansing and before moisturizing your skin. Though the serum has hydrating properties that work deep under your skin, it is still good to lock in the serum using a moisturizer that further hydrates your skin.
What are the benefits of a face serum?
It is easily absorbed into the skin
As it is a water or gel-based skincare formulation, it is easily absorbed by freshly cleansed skin. If you follow its use with the application of a moisturizer, you get to lock it in safely.
It soothes the skin
Those with oily or acne-prone skin have to be twice as careful before using any skincare product. The good news is that face serums are water-based or gel-based, making them ideal for those with oily skin. Not only do they help in fighting acne, but they also prevent the oily look rendered by some moisturizers and lotions.
It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles:
Fine lines and wrinkles that are way ahead of their time are a result of free-radical damage caused by exposure to harmful sun rays. You can reduce them by using a good vitamin C serum that is inherently a good source of antioxidants. As antioxidants fight the damage caused by free radicals, this is considered an essential addition to your skincare regimen, especially if you spend time outdoors.

Biolumin-C Vitamin C Serum
It is a product that works on the skin’s defence system to conspicuously reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its unique blend of biotechnology and stable Vitamin C complex helps combat stress and skin ageing.
Age Bright Clearing Serum
This serum not only prevents skin breakouts, but also reduces signs of skin ageing. While the Salicylic Acid prevents breakouts, the serum accelerates cell turnover that helps in reducing signs of skin ageing. Its ingredients work with skin to produce clearer and more radiant skin while helping it tackle dehydration.
Multivitamin Power Serum
This serum comes with microencapsulated Vitamins A, C and E that melt into the skin and work their magic to reduce the appearance of fine lines and age spots. The protein peptides that help build and repair skin cells work to make the skin resilient and reduce sun ageing to a minimum.
