Your skincare questions, answered.
Understanding your products is the first step towards a routine that feels like your own. Explore simple explanations of skincare textures, application and everyday rituals with CALYSSA.
What’s the difference between a serum and a moisturiser?
A serum is designed to address particular skincare needs, often in a lightweight texture. A moisturiser helps keep skin hydrated and reduce moisture loss. Their functions can overlap: the formula matters more than the name alone.
In what order should I apply my products?
The right order depends on the formulas you use. Many lightweight serums are applied before moisturiser, but always follow each product’s directions rather than relying on texture alone.
How much product should I use?
Start with the amount recommended on the label. More product does not necessarily mean better results. The right amount depends on the formula and the area you are applying it to.
How do I choose where to begin?
Think about what you want from your routine and keep your first steps simple. Read each product’s description, ingredients and directions to understand its intended use.
