Face Serums 101: Kaunsa Serum Kab Use Karein? | Cosmosentials
Ever looked at your skincare shelf and wondered – "Hyaluronic kab lagau? Retinol raat ko hi? Niacinamide din me chalega?"
You’re not alone!
Serums are skincare superheroes – strong, precise, and game-changing – if you only apply them at the right moment and in the correct sequence.
At Cosmosentials, we believe that skincare enthusiasts not only desire products but transparency too. So today, let's crack the code on exactly when to use which serum, so your skin receives the ultimate radiance, moisture, and protection it deserves.
Why Serums Are the Star of Your Skincare Routine
Face serums are concentrated formulas designed to target specific skin concerns. They’re lightweight, absorb quickly, and deliver potent ingredients straight into your skin.
The catch? Timing is everything. Use the wrong serum at the wrong time, and you might not see the magic happen.
Hyaluronic Acid – The Hydration Hero
When to Use: Morning and Night
If your skin often feels tight, flaky, or dull, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is your go-to. It pulls moisture from the environment into your skin, keeping it plump and healthy.
How to Use:
-
Apply to slightly damp skin after cleansing.
-
Seal it with a moisturizer (like Cosmosentials Hydrating Moisturizer) to lock in hydration.
💡 Pro Tip: Hyaluronic Acid is versatile. Use it in the AM under sunscreen and in the PM before night cream for round-the-clock moisture.
Niacinamide – The All-Rounder Skin Perfector
When to Use: Morning or Night (preferably both)
Niacinamide brightens skin, strengthens the barrier, reduces redness, and controls oil. Basically, it’s the all-rounder of skincare.
How to Use:
-
After cleansing, apply Niacinamide serum before heavier creams.
-
Pair with Cosmosentials Vitamin C Serum in the morning for a radiant glow, but if you have sensitive skin, use them in separate routines (Vitamin C in AM, Niacinamide in PM).
💡 Pro Tip: Avoid using Niacinamide at the exact same time as strong exfoliating acids if your skin is sensitive.
Retinol – The Anti-Ageing Powerhouse
When to Use: Night Only
Retinol boosts collagen production, reduces fine lines, and improves texture – but it makes your skin sensitive to sunlight. That’s why it’s strictly a PM ingredient.
How to Use:
-
Start with 2–3 nights a week, then increase as your skin adjusts.
-
Always follow with a nourishing moisturizer like Cosmosentials Hydrating Moisturizer.
-
In the morning, never skip Cosmosentials Sunscreen SPF 50 to protect your skin from UV damage.
💡 Pro Tip: Don’t layer Retinol with strong exfoliating acids or high-strength Vitamin C in the same routine.
