Back in the ’80s or ’90s where face serum is probably unheard of, you are probably wondering how serums came into the picture and how it seems to be like a must-have in your collection of skincare products. And this often begs the question of whether the use of face serums is really necessary for the skin. In my opinion, applying face serum is not a necessary skincare step unless you would like to target a particular skin concern. Otherwise, a simple cleanser and a moisturiser are basically all you’ll need for achieving healthy-looking skin. What do face serums do for your skin? Face Serum is actually a skincare product which you apply directly to your…

Excess sugar binds with the collagen in our skin in a process called glycation. During this process, toxic compounds called Advanced Glycation End products are released which cause wrinkles, fine lines and dark pigments to form. It is quite worrying as I can see all these…
