WTF is a serum?

[sebchi]

I always see people talking about using serum. I have a Vitamin C serum that I use in my skincare routine. However, I always see people saying "use your serum", are they referring to a specific type of serum that isn't the vitamin C or?

If you have acne go see a doctor so he can give you shit for your hormones cause all these remedies don’t work bro I say from experience

These derms have absolutely no idea what they're doing. Didn't even recommend a moisturizer or sunscreen, I had to figure that out myself.

Its an infused cream rather than a liquid form

Serum in derm generally means a viscous liquid used on your face, and yes, your Vit C is one too.
The kind of serum you use depends on what treatment you're looking for.

It's a group of chemicals that are good for your skin packed in one single serum. Which is way it's called serum.

I think that Adapalene works better than tret for acne.
Also it's less agressive so you can use it daily
