What Exactly Are Ampules?

L to R: Marogan, Iope, Sulhwasoo

If there is anything that truly helps your skin, I truly believe it's ampules. What are ampules, exactly? Ampules run the spectrum. Some are like essences, viz. they are water-based, and some are literally oils. I recommend both. For me, I love to wear the oil-based ampules at night and allows all that goodness soak into my skin. In the morning, my skin feels so soft and supple. Depending on the season, I adjust the oil I use; summer, lighter oils like the Iope you see above, or the Clarins, and winter/fall, my absolute favourite is argan oil. With regard to the the water- based essences, I recommend using it during the daytime, much like an essence.

For me, I find as I age, ampules are my saving grace.  Before I used these wonderful finds, my skin was dull. Now, my skin has a softness I find disappear the minute I stop using them.  As my skin ages, I find the suppleness of my skin is truly like fighting a war against time. Ampules are the first line of defense as the skin diminishes its elasticity.

Do let me know how you get on with them. Would love to hear your thoughts.
