When it comes to fighting the signs of ageing, believe me when I say serums are your secret weapon. These potent formulas are packed with active ingredients designed to penetrate deeply into the skin, targeting fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone and more. But with so many options out there, finding the best serum for your skin, we know, can be somewhat overwhelming. That’s why we’ve curated a list of the anti-ageing serums we love and know you will too! From hydration heroes to collagen boosting wonders, each one has been handpicked for their ability to transform your skincare routine and deliver visible results in little to no time!
Firstly though, what makes a serum a must-have in your skincare routine?
Unlike moisturisers, serums are lightweight and highly concentrated, allowing them to penetrate deeper and work more effectively on specific skin concerns. They’re formulated with game-changing ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, and peptides, which are proven to rejuvenate, hydrate, and repair the skin. Whether you’re looking to boost radiance, smooth out wrinkles, or prevent premature ageing, there’s a serum for your every need.
How to choose the right serum
The best serum for you depends on your skin type and concerns;
If you are concerned about fine lines and wrinkles, you’ll want to opt for a serum rich in retinol or peptides. If its dullness and pigmentation you want to improve, choose a serum formulated with vitamin C or niacinamide. If you are dealing with dryness and dehydration, make sure you look to introducing a hyaluronic acid serum to your skincare routine. And if you suffer from sensitive skin, applying a serum with calming ingredients like ceramides or marine extracts can be game-changing.

How to get the best results from your serum
While serums are able to penetrate the skin and hydrate on the deepest level unlike other products, in order to be really effective its essential your skin is prepped first! Serums work best on freshly cleansed skin allowing for optimal absorption. After applying your serum, you’ll want to follow with your moisturiser to lock in all that goodness. Be sure to be consistent too, truly visible results can take time so stick to your routine and reap in the rewards!
