Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Antioxidant serum

Step 1

Look in the cosmetic aisles at your drugstore and you will see antioxidant serums ranging from green tea, coffeeberry, red tea, vitamin C, vitamin E, and a cocktail mix of antioxidants. Choosing an antioxidant serum can be stressful. Find the price range that fits your budget. Remember that just because a product has an expensive price tag does not mean it will work any more than a cheaper version.
Step 2

Study the bottle and packaging of your antioxidant serum. Buy a serum that is in dark container if possible and not in a jar. Light and air will destabilize your antioxidant serum causing it to be ineffective.
Step 3

Check out some of these antioxidant serums that many people like: Olay Regenerist Serum Fragrance Free, Skin Effects Wrinkle Relaxing Serum with Lycopene, and Juice Organics Vitamin C serum. Paula's Choice Super and Skin Balancing antioxidant serums gets excellent raves too.

Tips & Warnings

Antioxidant serums are more preventive, so you may not see visible results right away, especially if your skin is in good shape
Wear serum in the morning before your sunscreen, wait until serum is dry before applying sunscreen
Toss your antioxidant serum if it turns a different color. Time oxygen and sunlight can destabilize it.
