Febuary 2008 - Serums are an important part of maintaining optimal skin health. PDF Print E-mail

Serums are an important part of maintaining optimal skin health.  When applied in the day, they provide the skin with a shield of protection from environmental factors.  Vitamins C’s and E’s are powerful antioxidants that help repair the skin and maintain cell integrity.

Action of Serums:
Stimulate collagen formation
Antioxidants fight free-radicals (eg. From sun, pollution, UV radiation)
Help even out skin tone and texture

Serums will penetrate beneath the outer skin, i.e. beneath the epidermis.  They should be applied on freshly cleansed skin, before applying any moisturizers or sunscreens.  Serums should not be exposed to light prior to use or they become oxidized.  If they become oxidized, the colour of the serum turns brown (instead of a light straw yellow) and they are no longer effective.

Serums are 20% off at Glow Medi Spa for the month of February.  See our promotions page for other promotions this month.
