  1. Wow, thank you for this detailed and awesome post! I was just thinking that my serum isn’t sufficient though seems to be so good, so far (Drunk Elephant night serum). My skin is similar to yours and I really need to hit it with some anti-aging and antioxidant serums! You are enabling to spend too much (though necessary) money on Oskia super super 16 serum and the Verso serum.
    I have also been debating getting and LED light though. Hmm worth it? I would also love it if it means I use serum less often!

    Giiirll this is literally the most user-friendly, informative post that I have ever seen! Thanks so much for putting in so much work to share it with us. :) I absolutely love face serums, and can’t imagine my skincare routine without them. I’ve tried a lot of different ones, but lately I have been loving the Chobs Centella Asiatica serum. My skin is oily and acne-prone, and this is the only serum that’s actually made a visible difference! xoxo

    Your words on antioxidant serums have certainly inspired me, particularly your point on how they’re worth spending a little more on! I’m fairly new to the world of serums, but I’m becoming increasingly interested – that’s for sure! :)

  10. Terrific breakdown Jenny! Whenever anyone asks me for skincare advice, I almost always tell them to add a serum to target their specific skin concerns. If only there were a a cure all serum. I wish. I always rotate a few depending on what’s going on with my skin. The Oskia Super 16 is one of my favorites. I just tried a deluxe sample of the SK-II GenOptics Aura Essence Serum and I was impressed enough that I will probably be purchasing it soon :)

  11. Thanks for laying out Serums. I’m trying to learn more about skincare and this post really helped.

    Before I started blogging about skincare, I thought serums aren’t necessary. But now, I can’t live without it. My day isn’t complete without using my fave serum XD
