Every spring it’s always the same. Your skin follows the same bumpy ride as the weather. Some days it looks good and on others, well, it appears a little meh. It’s not your fault. No one can predict the ever-changing hot-cold, sunshine-snow temperature with any real certainty. And so, you slather on a little of this on one day and rub a little of that on another day and then cross your fingers your complexion can keep up.
Good news. This yo-yo approach to skincare can stop, at least where serums are concerned. Brands like CeraVe, that are created, tested and recommended by dermatologists, have developed a way for their products to slowly release moisture into your skin all day long ensuring it doesn’t dry out or over hydrate. Case in point, the new Hydrating Serum with Hylauronic Acid.
Formulated with three ceramides (1, 3 and 6-II), vitamin B5 and hyaluronic acid, the lightweight gel-cream restores and maintains your skin’s natural protective barrier, while soothing dry skin. You can wear it on it’s own or under your day cream and sunscreen and under your night cream before bed. And you’ll want to. It absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or filmy residue Designed for use on its own or layered under a moisturizer, this refreshing gel-cream formula replenishes skin hydration and improves the appearance of wrinkles due to dryness for instantly smoother, softer skin. Plus, regardless of the weather, the serum’s slow release technology will kick in, keeping your face soft, smooth and looking good, while simultaneously strengthening your skin’s natural barrier.
CeraVe Hydrating Serum with Hylauronic Acid, from $25.99 for 30ml, available at Shoppers Drug Mart stores across Canada.
