A hydrating face serum is a lightweight skincare step that sits between cleanser and moisturizer. Because the texture is thin, it layers easily with the rest of your routine. Here is how to pick one and use it well.
What to look for
- Hydrating ingredients. Hyaluronic acid and ceramides are common choices in hydrating serums.
- A lightweight texture. A serum should absorb quickly and not feel heavy under moisturizer or makeup.
- A short, clear ingredient list. If you have sensitive skin, patch test first.
- Clear usage directions. Good products tell you how much to use and when.
How to use a hydrating serum
- Cleanse your face and leave the skin slightly damp.
- Apply a few drops and press it gently into your skin.
- Follow with moisturizer.
- Use sunscreen in the morning.
Most people use a hydrating serum once or twice a day, but always follow the label.
