Frequently Asked Questions

What are Serums and Ampoules, and why are they used in skincare routines?

Serums and Ampoules are concentrated skincare products designed to target specific skin concerns. In Korean skincare, they're used to provide a potent dose of active ingredients, such as antioxidants, peptides, and acids, directly to the skin.

Are Serums and Ampoules suitable for all skin types?

Yes, but the specific product should be chosen based on individual skin concerns. Some serums and ampoules are designed for hydration, some for brightening, some for anti-aging, and so on. As always, perform a patch test before full application to ensure compatibility.

How can Serums and Ampoules benefit my skin?

By delivering a high concentration of active ingredients directly to the skin, serums and ampoules can provide significant benefits. These can include hydration, reduction of fine lines, skin brightening, and many others, depending on the formulation.

How should I use a Serum or Ampoule in my skincare routine?

After cleansing, toning, and applying essence, you can apply your serum or ampoule. Dispense a few drops into your hand, apply it to your face, and gently pat until absorbed. Afterward, you can proceed with a moisturizer.

What's the difference between a Serum and an Ampoule?

While both serums and ampoules deliver concentrated active ingredients, an ampoule typically contains a higher concentration. Ampoules are often used for a limited time as a booster or when your skin needs a particular care, while serums can be used daily.

Can I use Serums and Ampoules with other skincare products?

Yes! Serums and Ampoules are designed to be used as part of your daily skincare routine, following cleansing, toning, and essence application, and before applying moisturizer and other treatment products.
