Dear, Klairs rich moist soothing serum review
I’ve been using this serum for about a month. It has a very slippery, gel-like texture and gets easily absorbed into the skin. There’s no scent to the serum. During these winter months, my skin tends to be normal to dry, and unfortunately, I didn’t notice any effects from Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum. It didn’t seem to moisturize or nourish my face as the brand claims.
However, when I combined this serum with Klairs Vitamin E Cream at night, my skin felt plump and hydrated in the morning. One positive aspect of this serum is its lack of skin-irritating agents, and it contains a lot of skin-soothing ingredients. Though they’re listed lower in the ingredients, indicating they are present in trace amounts.
Which skin should use Klairs rich moist soothing serum
It’s a great serum for individuals with oily and sensitive skin types due to its abundance of humectant and skin-soothing ingredients. These components attract moisture, effectively hydrating the skin. Oily skin types naturally have sebum on their face, acting as an occlusive that helps lock in the moisture.
However, for those with dry skin types, this serum may not serve a significant purpose on its own. You’ll likely need an occlusive moisturizer along with it. Alternatively, you can opt for a moisturizer rich in antioxidants, eliminating the need to spend extra money.
