The noise of facial serums is trend. You see them everywhere—small bottles, big claims. But here’s the truth: most don’t do much. They’re diluted. Or full of fillers. Or worse—contain hidden steroids that harm your skin long-term.

What is a serum?
A serum is applied after face wash and before moisturiser. Quantity needed is 2 to 4 drops only. It is not thick like cream. It is thin. Absorbs fast. Does not feel sticky on skin.
It works deeper than normal lotions. Because of this, it helps more with dark spots, pimple marks, oily skin, blackheads, fine lines. But results do not come in 2–3 days. Minimum 4 weeks regular use is needed. Better results seen after 6–8 weeks. Skipping days reduces effectiveness.
Choosing the right serum for your skin
For dark spots or pimple marks
Use brightening serum. Ingredients to look for are kojic acid, alpha arbutin, niacinamide. These reduce pigmentation slowly. No peeling or redness. Can be used daily.
For fine lines or loose skin
Use anti ageing serum. Should contain peptides or hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid gives immediate smooth feel. Peptides work over time to improve firmness. Best used at night.
For oily skin or blackheads
Use salicylic acid serum. Salicylic acid enters pores and removes oil and dead cells. Prevents new blackheads. Also reduces active pimples. Use once daily, preferably at night.
For dry or sensitive skin
Use hydrating serum. Hyaluronic acid holds water in skin. Ceramides repair skin barrier. Reduces tightness and flakiness. Apply on damp skin for better absorption.
How to use it the right way?
- Wash face gently. Double cleanse if you wore sunscreen.
- Pat dry—don’t rub.
- Put 2–4 drops in palm. Press into skin. No harsh rubbing.
- Wait 60 seconds. Let it sink in.
- Apply moisturiser—even if you’re oily.
- Morning? Sunscreen. Every time. Skip this, and your dark spots get worse.
Also: don’t mix vitamin C and retinol. They fight each other. Use C in AM, retinol in PM.
