If your skincare cabinet is filled with mystery concoctions and you've been wanting to learn the difference between serums – then this blog post is for you! Choosing the best serum for glowing skin can be a task but here, we'll break down the basics of serums in a way that all skincare lovers can easily understand.
Firstly, a lightweight facial serum is a skincare solution with elevated concentrations of active ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and Vitamin C, surpassing the levels found in regular facial moisturizers. Renowned for their efficacy, these serums are commonly employed to address specific skin issues such as wrinkles, acne, dryness, and dullness.Brightening Serums:
Ingredients: Glutathione, Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Arbutin, and Hyaluronic Acid.Fights dark spots, blemishes, uneven skin tone, and pigmented skin for a radiant look.
Suggested Serum: Chicnutrix Outshine - Korean Glass Skin Serum.
How does it work:
Glutathione and other skin-brightening ingredients can reduce melanin production by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase. This inhibition leads to a lighter and more uniform skin tone. Extensive research, both in vitro and in vivo, has revealed that glutathione can effectively diminish the appearance of hyperpigmentation and age spots. These ingredients help skin glow and redefine your radiance.
Provides long-lasting hydration to dull, dehydrated, and dry skin by drawing moisture from the environment.
Suggested Serum: Chicnutrix Hydrate – Instant Plumpy and Dewy Skin.
How does it work:
Hyaluronic acid, characterized as a humectant, possesses the ability to retain moisture at a remarkable 1000 times its weight in water. By drawing moisture from the surroundings, it deeply permeates the skin. Incorporating a sheet mask infused with a hyaluronic acid serum is particularly effective for addressing dry skin, as it provides profound hydration. This results in a visibly plump complexion and ensures sustained skin moisture.

Retinol, belonging to the retinoid class derived from Vitamin A, plays a crucial role in neutralizing free radicals. Consequently, it aids in the synthesis of collagen beneath the skin's surface, leading to a plumping effect that diminishes fine lines, unclogs pores, and reduces wrinkles. The presence of collagen enhances skin moisture and texture, boosting elasticity and minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and roughness.
