## How it works

It is a thin fluid rather than a gel, so a few drops cover the face and settle without a film. Pressed on damp skin it sinks in quickly and leaves the surface ready for a cream. It is doing a narrower job than an all-purpose lotion, and that is the reason it goes on before one. It goes on after your watery step and before the cream that seals everything down. The honest measure is the way the skin looks in the mirror once everything has settled.

## How to use

1. Apply it after your toner, while the face is still slightly damp, so a thin layer spreads without dragging.
2. Three or four drops cover the whole face; press it in with the flats of the fingers rather than rubbing.
3. Follow with a moisturizer within a minute so the thin layer has something holding it down.
4. Do not stack it under a second serum doing the same job, since more layers is not the same as more result.

## FAQ

### What is this product, and who is it for?

It is a soothing serum in a 40ml bottle, made for skin that reddens easily and wants a calm middle step. That is the difference from a cream, which is built mostly to hold what is already there rather than to concentrate one job into a thin layer. What you can judge yourself is how the skin looks and feels a few minutes later, and how it behaves under the rest of the routine.

### Should I use this in the morning or at night?

Either, and most people do both. In the morning it goes after the toner and before moisturizer and sunscreen; at night it sits in the same slot with nothing after the cream. If you are only using it once a day, the evening is the simpler choice because nothing else has to fit over it.

### Is a pea sized amount enough?

For a whole face, yes. Three or four drops, or a dab about that size, is the working amount, pressed in from the centre outward. Anything more mostly sits on the surface and ends up on a collar. Two thin applications a day do more than one heavy one.

### Do I still need a moisturizer over it?

Yes. A serum is the concentrated thin step and a moisturizer is the layer that keeps it from drying off the surface over the next hour. Leaving a serum as the last step is the most common reason a routine stops feeling like it is doing anything. Apply it, wait a moment, then the cream.
