Frequently Asked Serum Questions

What is a serum and why should I use one?

Serums are lightweight formulations designed to deliver concentrated ingredients to the skin. They are typically applied after cleansing and before moisturising to support specific skin needs such as hydration, balance, or overall skin clarity. Many people incorporate hydrating face serums into their routine to help maintain comfortable, balanced skin.

What makes Functional Skin serums different?

Functional Skin serums are formulated with a focus on skin health rather than short-term results. They use plant-based ingredients, humectants, and calming botanicals to support the skin barrier and natural balance.

What is the difference between The Sunny Serum and The Sophia Serum?

The Sunny Serum is formulated to support brighter, hydrated, and healthy-looking skin, with a focus on antioxidant support and moisture retention.

The Sophia Serum is formulated to support breakout-prone and unbalanced skin, helping calm inflammation, reduce redness, and promote a clearer-looking complexion.

Are these serums suitable for sensitive skin?

Both serums are fragrance-free, lightweight, and formulated to work gently with the skin. Those with very reactive skin may prefer to introduce new serums gradually and observe how their skin responds. Our hydrating face serums are designed to support hydration while remaining lightweight and comfortable on the skin.

Can I use these serums every day?

Yes. Both The Sunny Serum and The Sophia Serum are designed for daily use and can be applied morning and night on clean skin before moisturising

Can I layer these serums with other products?

Yes. Functional Skin serums are designed to layer easily under moisturisers and oils without pilling or feeling heavy. This makes them comparable to other premium botanical face serums online designed for modern skincare routines.

Which serum should I choose for my skin?

If your skin feels dull, dehydrated, or uneven in tone, The Sunny Serum may be a suitable option. If your skin is prone to breakouts, congestion, or feels unbalanced, the Sophia Serum may be more appropriate.
