There are still a lot of people who get confuse between ampoule and serum. Some might think both of them are the same thing. Ampoule and serum are both a concentrated formula to target specific skin care concerns. Even though they function in the same way, there are few differences between both of them.
Serum are made to be use for daily use where you can use it every day on your skin. Ampoules meant to use for a finite amount of time as a booster or when you’re having a skin crisis of some sort. It is best to use ampoule twice a week. Due to their high concentration and active ingredients, ampoules should not be used consistently.
As you notice, ampoule usually come in a small bottle with a dropper. This is because they have active ingredients that will not function after a long time so you can finish the ampoule faster than serum. Serum come in a big bottle as they do not have the same ingredients like ampoule.
Ampoules and serum both have the ability to do things like brighten, tighten, hydrate, protect and repair. For a faster visible result, it is best to use both of the product together because of their concentrated formulation rather than serum alone. Ampoule can take place after you finish washing your face and serum can be apply after you let the ampoule absorbed.
