WHAT IS AN AMPOULE ?

Ampoules are basically a potent concentration of a select ingredient meant to achieve a specific function. An ampoule is generally more powerful than a moisturizer because it’s concentrated, but it’s much more liquidy, somewhat like an essence or a serum.

BENEFITS OF AMPOULE :

The benefits of ampoules depend on the main ingredients of the product, but some of the most popular benefits are generally anti aging, or defending the skin against pollution or other outside toxin, and moisturizing dry skin.

Two examples of benefits from ampoules:

• Hyaluronic acid, which works for repairing the skin
• Vitamin C to help defend your skin and brighten it

WHEN CAN YOU USE YOUR AMPOULE ?

• Skincare routine: around 1-2 times a week after cleansing and toning, but before moisturizing. Depending on which products you use, you should use some essence, then ampoule, and then finish off with serum, or your moisturizer (these products should be applied from lightest to thickest consistency).
• Under Makeup : You can also add it under makeup to brighten up the look
• Cure : Get intense care for 1/2 weeks by using it everyday
• Add-on : Mix it in another product like a moisturizer, you can also check out other DIY recipe mixtures in our “Recipes for a Powerful Moisturizer” article.
