When it comes to skincare, we all know about the basics: cleansers, moisturizers, SPF. But if you’re ready to take your routine to the next level, a serum might be the answer.
Serums are topical skincare products—usually with a liquid or gel-like consistency—that contain concentrated active ingredients like vitamins, antioxidants, acids, peptides, botanical extracts and more. Applied after cleansing and before your moisturizer, serums are designed to quickly penetrate deep into the skin and produce amazing, targeted results… when you choose the right formulation for your skin.
Whether you’re looking for a serum to improve dullness, fine lines, dark spots or acne, there’s a serum for that! Here are some of our favourite serums that address common skincare concerns.
For hydration…
Serums containing hyaluronic acid help draw water into the skin to visibly improve the appearance of firmness, smoothness, and facial plumpness.

For anti-aging…
Selecting serums with vitamin C, vitamin E, peptides, and growth factors are usually the most beneficial when addressing common aging concerns.
We love:
For pigmentation concerns…
Serums containing vitamin C, niacinamide, kojic acid, phloretin, arbutin and other lightening agents are a fabulous choice.
We love:
For acne…
Beta hydroxy acids like salicylic acid are fantastic for reducing oil and acne. Ingredients that are antioxidant-rich and address pigmentation are also great for improving the marks left behind by acne scars.
