Do You Regularly Use a Serum?

I remember when serums were an extra step in my skin care routine that required remembering and effort.  Now, they're THE step in my skin care routine.  If I could only buy one product for the rest of my life it would be a serum.

Thicker than a liquid but thinner than a cream, a serum doesn't replace a product in your skincare routine - you introduce a serum to take advantage of the highly concentrated active ingredients and deep penetrating formula. 

Serums are often introduced as a 'cure' or 'rescue' when your skin is already showing the signs of ageing, but they can be used earlier to help prevent the signs too.  Regular use of the right serum can prove invaluable in the fight against lines, wrinkles and age spots.  They can also help reduce the appearance of scarring and even skin tone.  Serums can also be really impactful at targeting specific skin issues such a dull skin, rosecea, or acne.

And wouldn't you know it we have ourselves a serum going out for review!

Garnier’s Vitamin C Brightening Serum is enriched with [3.5%] Vitamin C*, Niacinamide & Salicylic Acid and promises to reduce the appearance of dark spots and enhance glow.  It also contains Lemon Extract, a powerful superfood known for its brightening properties.  

 The formula has been carefully blended to provide dark-spot action without being heavy or greasy on the skin and has been scientifically proven to reduce dark spots and acne mark appearance.  It is formulated to suit all skin types and tones, and is dermatologically tested.

Oh and all Garnier products are officially approved by Cruelty Free International - so it's kind to the fluffies too!


So if you'd like to put your hands up for this trial team (if we can keep them away from the Beauty Crew!) why not get chatting to us about your serum experience.  Do you regularly use a serum?  For what problem and what results have you seen?  If you don't use a serum, why not?

Get chatting below - you might find yourself on this amazing trial team!

Would love to try a serum with niacinamide, sounds like a great active ingredient!

I'm 41 - should I be using one?!

17th April, 2022

I briefly tried one to help with my dry skin but it ended up making my skin even drier. I've been put off since, but I think that this might be a better product to try. The brightening aspect is something I'm in dire need of right now!

Need some help brightening up my skin after summer! The Neutrogena Bright Boost serum I’ve been using isn’t cutting it

I haven't used a serum but I use kiehls midnight recovery oil in the evening and it has been fantastic!

Love love love trying new products, I’ve honestly never really thought to use a serum like this and would absolutely love to give this a try!

17th April, 2022

Well the only one that isn’t me in the product description is fine lines (although I’m terrible at staying hydrated so that definitely brings them to the surface a little more) bad acne scarring,hyperpigmentation,uneven skin tone,yes please would love to try!

Always on the look out for new products - would love to try this!

I don’t use a serum but have been reading a lot about vitamin c for the skin and would love to try it.

I don't regularly use a serum its hard to find serums gentle for sensitive skin and not break me out and ive noticed a few dark spots that i would love to test this product out on.

16th April, 2022

I have recently started using a serum for the first time, but it doesn't have vitamin c in it. I would like something that brightens my skin since I'm getting older now, and heading towards the big 5-0

16th April, 2022

Ah yes I have heard about skin brightening properties in cosmotology studies but I don't tend to use vitamin C on my skin. I'd be interested but wonder how well it works as I hear it really looses it's activeness quite rapidly. I know some people swear by them!

I have never used a serum, but it could be a good time to start. I am 55 years old with plenty of wrinkles and give lines, sun spots, that need a little more love! Keen to put in the effort for the result.

16th April, 2022

I’ve been given different serums over the years, but don’t buy any myself, I wouldn’t know where to start to be honest.

16th April, 2022

I don't use a serum, I'd be interested to see if it works!
