Looking For A Powerful Dose Of Active Ingredients For Skin? This Is the Replacement You Need To Make

Who doesn't want clear, radiant skin? In order to achieve this, we try various hacks and often go for a variety of skin products. Starting from cleansing our face to applying serum to a face cream, we follow each and every step religiously. Agree, right? While doing so we also look for other measures for better results. And, now, as per dermatologist Dr Kiran's latest Instagram post, we must replace our tonner with a proper serum to the skincare routine. She discusses the benefits of serum in the post. Toners may hydrate the skin but an appropriate face serum gifts the skin with a high dose of active ingredients.

In the caption, Dr Kiran explained, “If you are looking for a product that offers a more powerful dose of active ingredients, then face serum is your answer.” She further stated that serum will nourish, protect and hydrate your skin. It is also a great next step after cleansing and before moisturising to add in a dose of results-based skincare.

Stressing the importance of using of a serum, Dr Kiran added that toner is simply a waste of time. Meanwhile, a serum can target concerns like ageing, pigmentation, dryness, sensitivity, dullness, you name it.

According to Dr Kiran, here are the benefits of a face serum:

1) It gets absorbed quickly into your skin

2) It is easy to use

3) It will target your concern

4) The right one (serum) for your skin will deliver results

5) It adds value to your skincare routine

She explained, “The concept with a serum is that larger amounts of active molecules will potentially penetrate the skin's surface for optimum effectiveness.” She further said, “Also, due to the higher concentration, it typically takes a shorter amount of time to see visible results.”
