Dewy Skin Duos: Pairing Moisturisers with SPF + Serums
As summer arrives, it ushers in longer days, abundant sunshine, and countless opportunities for your skin to bask in the warmth. However, with all this outdoor enjoyment, it's essential to shield your skin from UV damage while maintaining its hydration and radiance. The key? Pairing targeted serums and daily moisturisers with SPF.
For the ultimate protection against aging UV rays and enhanced skincare benefits, we paired our targeted serums with their perfect match from DAILY PREVENTION™: multi-functional suncare that features XOSM™ Technology for an added line of defense against premature skin aging.
Let's unpack how to achieve dewy summer skin with IMAGE’s most sought after "power duos," targeted serums and their advanced SPF counterparts.
Why Pair Serums with Sunscreens?
Combining serums and sunscreens isn't just a trend; it's a powerful skincare strategy. Serums offer concentrated benefits, addressing specific skin concerns like hydration, brightening, or anti-aging. When paired with daily moisturisers with SPF, you get the best of both worlds: targeted treatment and essential sun protection.

Tips for Using Serums and Sunscreens
- Layering Order: Always apply serums first after cleansing and toning. Follow up with your daily moisturiser with SPF.
- Quantity Matters: Use a pea-sized amount of serum and a 5 cent-sized amount of sunscreen to ensure full coverage.
- Reapplication: Sunscreens should be reapplied every two hours, especially if you're spending time outdoors. Products like the DAILY PREVENTION Protect and Refresh Mist SPF 40 makes reapplication a breeze.
