Can you put 2 serums on your face?

Yes, you can definitely layer two serums if your skin has multiple needs! This is actually a common practice in Korean routines. This is called “layering,” as long as you follow a few simple rules:

  1. Apply the thinnest one first (e.g. hyaluronic acid serum), followed by the thickest one (e.g. retinol serum or anti-aging serum).
  2. Do not mix two powerful actives if you are a beginner (e.g. retinol + vitamin C may be too strong).
  3. Listen to your skin: If there are signs of discomfort or tightness, reduce to just one serum.

A good duo, for example, can combine a hydrating facial serum in the morning and an anti-blemish serum in the evening.

When to apply a facial serum?

Facial serum is generally used morning and/or evening, after cleansing and beforemoisturizerThe ideal is to adapt the application according to the type of serum:

  • Hyaluronic acid serum is very good to apply morning and evening, as it deeply hydrates.
  • Retinol serum is best used in the evening because it makes the skin more sensitive to the sun.
  • The anti-blemish serum or radiance serum can be applied in the morning, always followed by an SPF cream.
  • Anti-aging serum is often used in the evening, to maximize nighttime cell regeneration.

💡 Holy Skin Tip: In the morning, focus on radiance and protection. In the evening, focus on restorative care.
