FAQ
What is the difference between serum and ampoules?
Dr. David Kim, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City, said it is usually more concentrated and “produces results slightly faster than serum.” However, many Korean ampoules have recently begun to be labelled serum to make them more accessible and accessible to American K-Beatty enthusiasts.
How to incorporate Korean serum into your skincare routine
Like any serum, these should be used after applying toner. Layer it and you can reach out to your favorite eye cream and moisturizer. “The serum has more active ingredients at higher concentrations, and they are formulated to brighten, hydrate, or soothe the skin,” Dr. Kim previously explained. “Then there’s a moisturizer on top to lock in moisture and repair the skin barrier.”
