Everyone needs a little bit of magic.
If you are a living, breathing human being, then your skin is in constant need of one potion or other that will make the current problem de jour disappear.
Whether you are tormented by acne, discoloration, redness, wrinkles, saggy skin or all of the above; your quest for the solution that will be a revolution in your daily skin regimen is an ongoing affair.
You had long-term relationships with a few skin care products that were your “skin-mates” in the past, but you out-grew each other.
You dated on and off few of the “skin-match made at the cosmetic’s counter heaven”, but the magic fizzled after a month or two.
You even had a dozen or so, one night stands, with ” the hottest skin thing”, that lets just say did not live up to the promise of “rocking your world.”
What is a girl or boy to do?
Give up? Learn to love ” the skin you are in”?
You are not a quitter. Nor are you a cheesy TV ad.
You have to start to believe in a little bit of magic. Serum Magic.
Serums are the magic potions that will turn your frown upside down, and your less than desirable complexion into pure perfection.
What? How? When? Why? You ask.
Lets start at the very beginning.
Once a upon a time, in a laboratory far away…
…scientist formulated potent ingredients into tiny molecules.
After many, many trials, a potion was created that they called-SERUM.
Lightweight and similar in texture to gel or oil, serums can tackle just about any beauty concern. They are essentially a vehicle for delivering antioxidants, peptides, vitamins, retinol and other anti-aging ingredients into the skin. They are looser than creams or ointments, which allows them to absorb faster and better. Serum’s molecules are small enough to penetrate deep within the skin. The deeper the ingredients are delivered, the quicker the result.
The most potent ingredients in serums are:
-exfoliators-lactic and glycolic acids to remove dead skin.
-antioxidants-the efficient delivery system in serums infuses the skin with radical fighting benefits.
-vitamins-A, C, and E are used for their antioxidant properties.
-skin brighteners-willow bark extract and rose address dull looking skin.
-hyaluronic acid-stimulates new cell growth
-peptides and growth factors-water soluble with ability to ward of signs of aging.
Serums are great for anyone with oily or acne prone skin, since they don’t clog the pores. Acid basesd serums also offer a form of antibacterial effect.
Regardless of your age, you should be using a serum regularly. Younger skin will benefit more from the serums, as they protect the skin and work to improve some sun damage.
If you have more mature skin, serums alone can be sometime a bit irritating. Look for a serum that will provide some moisture and the results will be wonderful.
Use your serum every morning, after you cleanse and tone. Follow with an application of your daily moisturizer. Keep in mind that brightening serums are used in the evening.
Do not forget your sunscreen everyday!
Most serums will improve your skin in about 3 months, however you will notice your complexion change for the better in just few days.
Have your own mirror will tell you that “you are the fairest of them all.”
Who knew that you don’t need a Prince Charming, just a small bottle of serum, to have you living happily ever after?
