"Face wash? Check. Moisturizer? Check. Serum. Huh? When it comes to your face care regime, you may need to re-think your options in order to get the most out of your current skincare products....starting with your face moisturizer. Plus, it&amp;#x27;s almost Friday which means you now you have a fun, new beauty project to look forward to this weekend: your skin! You wanted more skincare, well you&amp;#x27;ve got it! Let&amp;#x27;s start with face serums, shall we? In a previous post, some of you asked what I used on my skin. While I have an ever changing skincare regimen, one thing that I always use is Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair. I dab on a few drops and rub into my skin after applying my night cream before going to bed. I don&amp;#x27;t even know how to describe how it works, but I do know that I consistently wake up with glowing, evenly toned skin. In fact, if I go too long without using it, my skin feels different. (Now that&amp;#x27;s a good skincare product!) But, if you use a facial moisturizer daily (and nightly) what the heck do you need a serum for? And they can be quite pricey. So is it worth the investment? And my answer to that is yes--and I&amp;#x27;m not the only one who thinks so. According to Dr. Nadine Pernodet, Executive Director for Global Research &amp;amp; Development-Biology for Estee Lauder (whew! that&amp;#x27;s a long title!), serums don&amp;#x27;t have to replace your moisturizer. Instead, the two products can just work together once applied to increase each others efficacy! (Industry speak for getting the job done.) Not to say that your face moisturizer isn&amp;#x27;t perfectly fine as is, but there&amp;#x27;s nothing wrong with adding in a extra shot of &amp;quot;make-my-skin-look-better&amp;quot; is there? Trust me it works (and I wouldn&amp;#x27;t lie to you lovely ladies, especially when it comes to skin stuff!) All you have to do is apply a serum and then smooth your favorite moisturizer on top of it. The best part is that serums are great for all skin types, so it takes away a lot of the confusion when shopping for one. They consist of a light texture and don&amp;#x27;t feel oily, greasy or heavy once applied to the skin. Ready to make the move? In addition to the Estee Lauder serum, there&amp;#x27;s a slew of other fab serums out there: More Ahava... So, who plans on giving a face serum a try? And who&amp;#x27;s already using a great one that they swear by? Spill the skincare beans below!
