If you’re going to
splurge on just one skincare item, make it a serum. Dermatologists would agree that
serums are the workhorses of the skincare world, especially when it comes to
anti-aging. Sure, moisturizers are crucial too, but serums have a lighter formula and are specifically designed to penetrate deeper into the skin barrier to deliver the active ingredients, making them
much more effective. A solid serum is quite the multitasker: It can tackle everything from dullness to firmness, fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, redness, texture, and dryness.The gold standard of vitamin C serums, this formula tops practically every dermatologist’s list. Packed with the power of antioxidants—and 0.5% ferulic acid to make them even more effective—it has pure vitamins E and C to guard your skin against environmental damage and free radicals. It can also brighten the skin, fight fine lines and wrinkles, protect from oxidative stress, boost firmness and even the skin's tone. Pretty impressive, to say the least.
