The New Serum Foundation Brilliant For Your Skin (For Less Than ?25)

What are serums? Are they a fad? In the September issue of IMAGE, on shelves nationwide now, skincare expert?Jennifer Rock (a.k.a The Skin Nerd) talks all things serums; the ingredients, what to expect, when to use a serum, why you should use one, and its role in your regime. According to her, they’re a skin game-changer. “When addressing our main concerns,” she told us, “be they lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, redness, dark circles or irritation – serums are results-driven, challenging the skin in a way no cleanser or mask ever could.”

Serums have the ability to get right into the cellular level of the skin and work to make changes to the damage deep within.

What if your foundation came with these skincare benefits?

Enter the latest weapon for age-defying skin,?No7’s Lift & Luminate TRIPLE ACTION Serum Foundation. And it’s only €24.
