Generally, 2 drops of serum can be enough, but it depends on the serum and your individual needs.
The reference provided suggests that 2-3 drops is a recommended amount. However, personal preference and factors like skin type, serum concentration, and the area you're treating all play a role in determining the right amount.
Here's a breakdown of considerations:
-
Serum Type: Highly concentrated serums with potent ingredients might require less product. Lighter, more hydrating serums may need a bit more.
-
Skin Type: Dry skin often benefits from a slightly larger quantity to achieve adequate hydration. Oily skin may only need a minimal amount to avoid feeling greasy.
-
Coverage Area: Are you applying serum to your entire face, just under your eyes, or specific spots? Naturally, larger areas need slightly more product.
-
Personal Preference: Some people prefer a lighter feel, while others like a more substantial layer of product.
Ultimately, the best approach is to start with 2 drops and adjust based on how your skin feels. If your skin absorbs the serum quickly and feels like it needs more, add another drop. If it feels heavy or takes a long time to absorb, try using only one drop next time. The reference even states if a bit less or a bit more works for you, that is what matters.
