Ask any skincare pro (or self-proclaimed skincare aficionado) what their must-have, non-negotiable, guaranteed-to-see-results product is and they’ll undoubtedly answer “serum.” There’s no denying that incorporating a face serum is one of the most effective ways to see results, since serums are typically the most potent and concentrated formulations of active ingredients in a skincare lineup or regimen. So, the only questions that remain are: What skin concerns are you looking to target, and what skin goals do you want to reach? Whether you’re on the hunt for a face serum for dry skin or one that targets acne, there’s a L’Oréal Paris serum for that. Continue reading to learn all about face serum benefits and how to choose the best one for your routine.
Best Face Serum for Dry Skin
If dry skin is your main concern, try L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power LZR 1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Formulated with 1.5% pure hyaluronic acid (the superstar humectant that pulls moisture into your skin and can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water), this serum will leave your skin looking plump and supple and feeling ultra-hydrated.
Best Face Serum for Uneven Skin
Have skin that’s prone to acne, blackheads and blemishes? L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power LZR 10% Glycolic Acid Serum will be your best friend. Featuring 10% glycolic acid, the alpha-hydroxy acid powerhouse that works wonders on acne, blemishes, large pores and even wrinkles, this face serum sloughs away the dead skin cells that sit on top of your skin, revealing the clear, glowing skin underneath. Glycolic acid also has anti-aging and acne-fighting properties, due to its ability to speed up skin’s cell-turnover rate.
Best Face Serum for Strengthening the Skin Barrier
Sometimes the overuse of strong active ingredients can lead to a weakened skin barrier. This can cause conditions like rosacea, acne and eczema and skin that is sensitive and reactive. The solution? Strengthening your skin barrier by boosting the healthy bacteria that sits on the surface of skin. Enter L’Oréal Paris Youth Code Skin Strengthening Serum, formulated with hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin, and bifida and sphingomonas probiotic ferment fractions, to balance the skin and restore the healthy bacteria on its surface.
Best Face Serum for Brightening
Who doesn’t want their skin to look a little brighter, especially as the cold weather creeps in? Vitamin C is the gold standard for skin brightening and for good reason. The antioxidant has been heavily studied and is proven to work wonders on all skin types. Try L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power LZR 10% Pure Vitamin C Serum, formulated with 10% pure vitamin C concentrate, for visibly brighter, more radiant skin in just one week.
Best Face Serum for Anti-Aging
If anti-aging is what you’re after, L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Cell Renewal Midnight Serum is what you need. The antioxidant serum repairs skin overnight (when skin is in peak cell-renewal mode) with a combination of hyaluronic acid and the exclusive Antioxidant Recovery Complex. You’ll wake up with visibly smoother, younger-looking skin.
Best Face Serum for Deep Wrinkles
Thought you couldn’t address deep wrinkles? Think again! L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power LZR 0.3% Pure Retinol Night Serum is formulated with 0.3% pure retinol, the gold standard of anti-aging skincare ingredients. Retinol works by speeding up the process of your skin cells turning over, gradually lessening the appearance of—you guessed it—deep wrinkles. Because of how potent this serum is, it’s best to start slowly and incorporate it into your routine just a couple of times a week and work your way up as you see fit.
