Let’s talk SERUMS today, ladies. I love a good serum, because they are typically lighter than moisturizers, providing better absorption, less greasiness, and easier application. Typically, serums are highly concentrated with active ingredients that are good for the skin, and they target specific skin concerns. HELLO ANTI-AGING!
When you first hear the word “serum,” what’s the first word that comes to mind? Expensive, right? Not necessarily. There are plenty of serums available in the market, BUT a hefty price tag may not necessarily mean they are more effective. There are some amazing facial serums under $50 that work just as hard without costing nearly as much. So today, I am sharing a roundup of the best face serums under $50 that you can find at Walmart.
BEST FACE SERUM UNDER $50
When researching the best face serums under $50, I studied how they work, how they are formulated, which skin concern they focus on, and how to use them. Of course, I reached out to you guys, and the overwhelming favorite brand was L’Oreal. So, in this post, I am going to share my overall favorite, which skin concern each corrects, formulations, frequency of use, and what to pair with them.
BEST OVERALL FACE SERUM UNDER $50: L’OREAL MIDNIGHT SERUM
Preferred to the Number 1 Luxury Night Serum, the L’Oreal Paris Age Perfect Cell Renewal Midnight Serum truly packs an anti-aging punch. The formula features a Patented Antioxidant, Vitamin E, and Hyaluronic Acid to smooth wrinkles and give you firmer, more radiant skin. Even more importantly, this serum is effective for ALL skin types and tones, made without parabens or mineral oil, and is allergy tested. It is suitable for sensitive skin, as well.
The best time to apply this versatile serum is at night when skin reaches its peak of cell renewal. Millions of new cells are revealed to give you smoother and firmer skin. Pair the L’Oreal Midnight Serum with the L’Oreal Age Perfect Anti-Aging Moisturizer to recover the skin’s antioxidant reserves, help defend skin against damaging external aggressions, and help boost its natural renewal process.
BEST PLUMPING FACE SERUM: L’OREAL PARIS REVITALIST DERM INTENSIVES HYALURONIC ACID FACE SERUM
I remember when I was pregnant, my skin looked plump all the time. It was truly one of the best side effects of pregnancy. Aaaand I have been trying to recreate that glowy, plump look ever since! The L’Oreal Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum is a dermatologist validated, highly-concentrated, anti-aging plumping hyaluronic acid serum that immediately hydrates and fills wrinkles in 2 weeks. Like the other skincare products in the L’Oreal lines, it’s fragrance-free and paraben-free. It contains no mineral oil or synthetic dyes, and leaves skin feeling hydrated.
BEST DARK SPOT CORRECTOR: L’OREAL PARIS REVITALIST DERM INTENSIVES 10% PURE GLYCOLIC ACID FACE SERUM
The L’Oreal Glycolic Acid Face Serum was the 2nd most recommended product over on Stories. And I totally see why! I have become obsessed with glycolic acid, whether in a peel or liquid form. Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (aha) recognized by dermatologists as an effective exfoliator to reveal more even, younger-looking skin. This anti-aging serum specifically targets dark spots, evens skin tone, and reduces wrinkles.
In 1 week, the serum resurfaced for younger-looking skin. After 2 weeks, dark spots were visibly reduced and skin was more even. AND in just 4 weeks, fine lines and wrinkles were visibly reduced. It’s also fragrance-free and paraben-free and contains no mineral oil or synthetic dyes.
HOW DO I INCORPORATE THE MIDNIGHT SERUM INTO MY BEAUTY ROUTINE?
The L’Oreal Age Perfect line contains a wide range of products to complete your beauty routine. Make sure to head over to Instagram Stories to see my application in action.
CLEANSE:
Use the Age Perfect Gentle Cleanser morning and night to clean your skin and remove all traces of makeup.
SERUM:
Although the Midnight Serum alludes to nighttime use, you can actually apply it morning and evening for double the antioxidants and double the concentration.
MOISTURIZE (MORNING):
Make sure you use broad-spectrum SPF protection every morning. Even if you are not planning on being outside, this will protect you from damaging UVA/UVB rays than can accelerate aging. The Age Perfect Rosy Tone Moisturizer with SPF 30 pairs well with the Midnight Serum.
MOISTURIZE (EVENING):
To lock in moisturize and boost the skin’s natural renewal process, make sure you moisturize every evening. Overnight, millions of new cells are revealed. So using the L’Oreal Age Perfect Anti-Aging Night Moisturizer will give you smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin. As well as help prevent dry skin patches.
EYE CREAM
Don’t forget your eye cream! When my under eye area is dry, wrinkles develop instantly. Use the Age Perfect Cell Removal Eye Cream morning and night to hydrate this sensitive area and then fight the signs of aging around your eyes.
