FAQs
Your serums have lower percentages of active ingredients. Are these concentrations effective?
Yes, our serums are formulated with
effective concentrations of active ingredients. Lower percentages can still be
highly effective because our formulations are designed to deliver ingredients
in a stable and potent form. We focus on quality and efficacy to ensure that
even lower concentrations can produce noticeable results over time.
Are your serums safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?
Our serums are generally formulated with
safety in mind, but we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider
before using any skincare products during pregnancy or breastfeeding. They can
provide personalized advice based on your specific needs. Plus, we only
recommend not to use Retinol if you are pregnant or a lactating mother.
Do your serums cause purging or breakouts?
Some users may experience purging or
breakouts when introducing new serums, especially those with active ingredients
like retinol or acids. Purging occurs as your skin adjusts to new ingredients,
while breakouts might be due to other factors. If purging happens, it’s crucial
to maintain a consistent skincare routine and use a moisturizer to support your
skin barrier.
Are your serums oil-based or water-based?
Our serums are primarily water-based to
ensure lightweight, fast-absorbing formulas that deliver active ingredients
effectively. We do offer some oil-based serums for specific needs, which will
be clearly labeled.
What is the % of niacinamide in your serums?
The percentage of niacinamide in our serums
varies by product, but it typically ranges from 1% to 10%. For specific
products, please refer to the ingredient list or CS support if you want to know percentage of any
specific ingredient.
What should I do if purging occurs after using your serums?
If purging occurs, it’s important to
continue using the serum as directed and incorporate a good moisturizer into
your routine. Moisturizers help to strengthen the skin barrier and lock in
hydration, which can alleviate irritation and support your skin during the
purging process.
How should I perform a patch test with your serums?
To perform a patch test, apply a small
amount of the serum to a discreet area of your skin, such as behind your ear or
on your inner forearm. Wait 24-48 hours to see if any redness, itching, or
irritation occurs. If you experience no adverse reactions, it is likely safe to
use the product on your face.
How often should I use the serum for best results
For best results, use the serum as
directed, usually once or twice daily. It can take 4-8 weeks to see noticeable
changes, as skincare products work gradually to improve your skin’s condition.
How long does one bottle of serum typically last with regular use?
A bottle of serum typically lasts about 2-3
months with regular use, depending on the frequency of application and the
amount used per application.
Are your serums suitable for all age groups?
Yes, our serums are formulated to address
various skincare concerns that can be relevant to different age groups.
However, specific needs may vary, so choose products based on your individual
skin concerns.
How should I incorporate your serums into my skincare routine?
Start by introducing the serum gradually
into your routine. For retinol, begin with a lower concentration and apply it
2-3 times a week, gradually increasing frequency as your skin builds tolerance.
Always use sunscreen during the day, as retinol can increase sun sensitivity.
Can I use your serums with other skincare products?
Yes, you can use our serums with other
skincare products. However, avoid combining strong actives like retinol and
acids in the same routine to prevent irritation. Always patch-test new products
and introduce them slowly.
What skin types are your serums suitable for?
Our serums are designed to be suitable for
a range of skin types, including normal, dry, oily, and combination skin.
Specific products are tailored for sensitive or acne-prone skin, so check the
product details for recommendations. Our serums are beginners friendly.
Are your serums non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)?
Yes, our serums are formulated to be
non-comedogenic, which means they are designed not to clog pores. However,
individual reactions can vary, so monitor your skin’s response.
Can your serums be used around the eye area?
Most of our serums are not specifically
formulated for the delicate eye area. For eye concerns, consider products
designed for that area to ensure safety and effectiveness.
How do I store your serums to maintain their effectiveness?
Store your serums in a cool, dry place away
from direct sunlight. Keeping the cap tightly closed will also help maintain
the product’s stability and effectiveness.
How long does one bottle of serum typically last with regular use?
One bottle of serum typically lasts about
2-3 months with regular use, depending on the amount used and the frequency of
application.
Are your serums suitable for both men and women?

and women. Skincare needs are universal, and our products are formulated to
address a variety of skin concerns regardless of gender.
How long does it typically take to see results from using your serums?
It typically takes 4-8 weeks to see
noticeable results from using our serums. Consistent use and patience are key
to achieving the best outcomes from your skincare routine.

not test our products on animals, and our formulations do not include
animal-derived ingredients.
What should I do if I experience irritation or an allergic reaction?
If you experience irritation or an allergic
reaction, discontinue use immediately. Apply a soothing moisturizer and consult
with a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.
Can I use your serums if I have sensitive skin?

sensitive skin. Look for products labeled for sensitive skin or those with
gentle, soothing ingredients. Patch-testing is also recommended to ensure
compatibility.
How to layer your serums?
Layer your serums from the thinnest to the
thickest consistency. Apply serums with lighter textures first, followed by
those with heavier or oil-based formulations. Allow each layer to absorb before
applying the next.
