Can you use facial oils to replace serums? The simple answer is no. Some people think that a serum is no longer necessary when you add oils to your routine, but this is not the case.

Essential oils are great, amazing even, but they aren’t moisturizing. This means that when used on the hydrated but dry skin (dry and dehydrated skin isn’t the same!), oils can be a really good option. But if your skin is dehydrated, which is really common, then you can’t substitute the serum for the oil.

What goes first?
The ideal way to use these two marvelous products is to apply the serum to hydrate the skin as much as it needs it, and then use the oil to nourish the face.

•Fine lines and wrinkles: gently pinch your skin on the cheek and check if there are any fine lines

•Dullness: a tired appearance, dark circles, and an overall dull skin aren’t only signs that you might need some rest.

Do you relate to any of these symptoms? You might want to try some products to keep your skin healthy.
