Brightening Serum
Brightening serums are designed to visibly fade dullness and uneven skin tone for a more even complexion. Many also include ingredients to combat other skincare concerns like minimization of pores or smoothing out texture issues in the skin.
Experts advise using a brightening serum in the morning after cleansing your face and applying your preferred toner (hydrating toners are our favorite, but any will do!). Brightening serums typically combine exfoliating ingredients, pigment blocking/regulating ingredients, and proven anti-aging options for maximum effect.

Hydrating Serum
When selecting serums for dry skin, look for products containing humectants – substances which draw water into the outer layers of your face by drawing in moisture from its environment – such as hyaluronic acid (which holds 1000 times its weight in water), sodium hyaluronate, glycerin and pro-vitamin B5 to keep your complexion moisturised and plumped up.
