FAQ

Frequently asked questions and advice

What is the main difference between a serum and a cream?

Serums have a liquid or gel texture and contain a very high concentration of active ingredients with small molecules that penetrate deeply. Creams have larger molecules that hydrate the surface and "seal" the serum inside the skin, preventing water evaporation.

Can I use the serum without applying the cream?

Not recommended. Serums, being very light, are unable to protect the skin barrier. Without a cream on top, the skin may feel tight or dehydrate more quickly. The serum and cream combination is the standard treatment for achieving tangible anti-aging or brightening results.

How long will it take to see the results of the treatment?

While the hydration of a cream is immediate, the benefits of serums (especially those with anti-blemish or anti-wrinkle effects) require consistency. The skin's cell renewal cycle is approximately 28 days; therefore, we recommend following the routine for at least a month to experience a real transformation in skin texture.

Serums and Creams: The Importance of Professional Layering
