Serum + Cream: the duo you need

Serum has become a staple in beauty routines. Why is the day cream and serum combo so effective?

Why use a serum?

A serum is an intensive treatment packed with active ingredients, often more concentrated than a day cream, which generally contains more water. A serum has a more fluid texture than a day cream, and is fresher and penetrates the skin more quickly to allow the active ingredients to act more quickly on the different layers of the epidermis. The role of a serum is to prepare the skin before applying your skincare products. Serum should be used on thoroughly cleansed skin, before your day or night cream.

Why choose a serum + moisturizer combo?

Despite an active ingredient concentration that's on average 3 times higher than that of a day cream, a serum used alone won't be at its most effective. The serum accelerates the penetration of the active ingredients in the day cream applied next.

Which duo should you choose for skin lacking radiance?

The Energize range is designed to restore radiance to dull complexions and delay the appearance of the first signs of aging. Vitality Shot is a smoothing serum that reveals radiance thanks to a unique complex of active ingredients. It is also a true anti-pollution shield. The Youth Hydration Cream reactivates the skin's youthful assets. Thanks to its unique composition of active ingredients, the skin is redensified and gains radiance, wrinkles and fine lines are smoothed. This duo protects the skin from the first wrinkles and recreates radiance instantly and lastingly.

Which duo should you choose for dry skin?

Dry or dehydrated skin should opt for the cream and serum duo from the Hydra range . The Optimum Hydrating Serum is a truly thirst-quenching treatment for dehydrated skin.
