How to apply your serums to get the most out of their benefits By Tatiana Becerra One of the most frequently asked questions in skincare is the correct order in which serums should be applied. At SIALBÉ, we know that every skin is unique and that each serum is formulated to address different needs and concerns. From hydrating to brightening or calming serums, it's important to know how to combine them for optimal results. What is an IV drip and why is it so important? Serums are ultra-nourishing concentrates that deliver essential active ingredients for healthy, radiant skin. Thanks to their lightweight, fast-absorbing formula, they penetrate deep into the dermis, boosting hydration, firmness, and radiance. Generally, serums should be applied after cleansing and before moisturizer. However, depending on their specific formula, there are some exceptions. How to use serums with hyaluronic acid? Hyaluronic acid-based serums are characterized by their light, transparent texture. They are ideal for deep hydration and should be applied directly to clean, damp skin before any other product. This is because the lipids present in creams or oil-based serums can block the penetration of hyaluronic acid, reducing its effectiveness. If you use multiple serums with this base, you can apply them in layers, allowing each one to absorb before applying the next. How to apply lipid-based serums? Lipid-based serums have a creamy or milky appearance, and their main function is to provide nourishment and repair. Some examples include soothing serums, brightening serums, and those containing Vitamin C. These should be applied after hyaluronic acid-based serums, as they help seal in moisture and enhance the effects of other active ingredients. If you wish to combine them, you can mix them with your moisturizer or apply them just before it, allowing them to be fully absorbed. Can the serums be mixed? If you decide to mix serums, it's important to use those with a similar consistency. For example, hyaluronic acid-based serums can be combined to boost hydration and protection against environmental factors. Similarly, lipid-based serums can be mixed to soothe the skin and improve radiance. However, mixing serums with different bases in the same application is not recommended, as this could interfere with their absorption and effectiveness. It's best to apply them in the correct order and allow each one to work before applying the next. Finishing serums: the final step for radiant skin? Some serums are designed to be the final step in your skincare routine. These include serums with a lifting effect, brightening serums, and sunscreens in serum form. Lifting serums should be applied at the end of your routine and before makeup. Highlighters can be applied before or after makeup to give a natural glow. Serums with sun protection should be used as the last step, without mixing them with moisturizer, to ensure maximum protection. Conclusion The order in which you apply your serums is key to maximizing their benefits. Always remember to start with hyaluronic acid serums , followed by lipid-based serums, and finish with a setting serum. This way, your skin will receive the hydration, nourishment, and protection it needs at each step. At SIALBÉ, we believe a well-structured skincare routine is the key to healthy, radiant skin.

The retinol of the future is natural: transform your skin with sea fennel from the Île de Ré Retinol has been a star ingredient in skincare for years thanks to its effectiveness in combating wrinkles, improving texture, and revitalizing the face. However, not all skin types tolerate this potent vitamin A derivative. Irritation, flaking, and excessive sensitivity are common side effects, especially in sensitive skin. Today, biocosmetics offers an equally powerful and much gentler alternative: plant-based retinol . What is retinol and why do we need an alternative? Conventional retinol works by stimulating cell renewal, increasing collagen production, and visibly improving the skin's appearance. But its potency can also be its Achilles' heel: many people with sensitive skin should avoid it. The SIALBÉ difference At SIALBÉ, we developed an active extract called Samphira Retinol , obtained from sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum) , sustainably harvested on the Île de Ré. This active ingredient is certified by COSMOS ECOCERT as organic and is the result of environmentally responsible practices. And what makes it so special? Unlike synthetic retinol, plant-based retinol offers the same dermatological benefits — wrinkle reduction, improved texture, even skin tone, brighter skin, and less visible pores — without causing irritation or inflammation. Biocosmetics with purpose: Berry Boost Berry Boost is not just a vegan retinol serum. It's a synergy of dermoactive ingredients designed to deliver a complete regeneration experience: Essential amino acids such as arginine, glycine, and alanine stimulate natural collagen production, combat sagging, and improve elasticity. The result: hydrated, firm, and visibly smoother skin. Extracts of wild strawberry, grape, and raspberry , rich in antioxidants and vitamins. These active ingredients brighten the skin, protect it from oxidative stress, and even out skin tone. Urea, fructose, citrate and sodium PCA , powerful natural humectants that help retain moisture, strengthen the skin barrier and leave a velvety texture with that healthy glow we love so much. Benefits, without side effects It does not irritate or sensitize the skin Suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive Safe to apply to the neck and other delicate areas Lightweight and fast-absorbing formula Ideal for including in any facial routine: just apply a few drops to clean skin and, if it's daytime, follow with sunscreen. The future of skincare SIALBÉ 's plant-based retinol represents a new era in facial care: advanced, clean and deeply respectful of your skin and the planet. A formula designed for those who understand that beauty also lies in the origin of the ingredients.

No-nonsense organic skincare: Why at SIALBÉ we do things differently by Fátima Gómez. Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt like your skin was talking to you? Yes, I do. And many times that call was more of a plea: “Take care of me and treat me well.” Because, amidst so many products, trends, magical promises, and endless routines, we sometimes forget that our skin also needs connection, not just correction. Taking care of your skin shouldn't be complicated or full of ingredients you can't even pronounce. That's why we were born—a Mexican brand that not only understands skin but respects it from the very beginning. We believe in going back to basics: natural ingredients, organic formulas, and respect for your skin and the planet. It's that simple. Let's start from the beginning: what is organic skincare? Organic skincare is based on products made with natural ingredients, free of pesticides, parabens, silicones, and harsh chemicals. These formulas are designed to work with your skin, not against it. So what's the real difference? While many conventional products may promise quick results using very strong active ingredients, organic products aim to achieve effective results without harming your skin or your long-term hormonal health. Each of our products is made with active, plant-based ingredients, harvested using environmentally friendly practices, and formulated without unnecessary fillers. We are deeply committed to the well-being of your skin and the planet. Here, we don't use generic formulas; each product is formulated with the knowledge of natural bio-dermocosmetics, combining science, botany, and love. What do our products contain? Our favorite : plant-based retinol in our Berry Boost Serum. We obtain this active ingredient from the French island of Ré by carefully harvesting the sea fennel there. Sources such as sea fennel and Bidens pilosa have studies that support that they mimic the effects of conventional retinol (such as improving texture, reducing fine lines and blemishes) but without causing irritation or inflammation, and the best part is that it is ideal for sensitive skin thanks to its composition and gentleness.       The most hydrating ingredient: hyaluronic acid. At SIALBÉ, we've created a formula that, in addition to providing intense hydration, repairs and soothes your skin's barrier thanks to oat and rose petal extracts. The result? Plump, hydrated, supple, and super glowy skin. Each product contains specific botanical extracts: such as calendula (soothes the skin), chamomile (anti-inflammatory), centella asiatica (deeply regenerates), and green tea (a powerful antioxidant). All of them are chosen for their real and visible effect on the skin. And let's not forget cold-pressed vegetable oils, such as jojoba or rosehip oil. They are rich in vitamins and fatty acids that deeply nourish the skin without clogging pores or causing breakouts—in other words, they are non-comedogenic. At SIALBÉ, we work with certified suppliers who prioritize responsible farming. Many of our plant-based ingredients come from different parts of the world, such as Germany, France, and Spain, which support their effectiveness and share our vision: fewer chemicals and more respect for the soil. Everything is amazing, but how do you switch to organic skincare? Switching to organic skincare doesn't have to be a radical overnight change. There are no strict rules or complicated rituals. It's simply about going back to basics, listening to your skin, and choosing products that are right for your skin type and needs. And the best part is that at SIALBÉ we offer free personalized advice. Step 1: Get informed Read labels. Research the ingredients, do patch tests on small areas of your skin, and go slowly. At SIALBÉ, we don't use silicones, parabens, synthetic fragrances, or harsh alcohols. Why? Because your skin doesn't need them, and neither does the planet. Step 2: Go for the essentials 1- Start with the cleanser , identify your skin type and its current needs. 2- Add an alcohol-free toner , like our rose and strawberry seed toner, which balances pH while hydrating and regenerating. 3- Then choose a serum according to your needs (hydration, blemishes, soothing, wrinkles, acne…). 4- Add a moisturizing cream for supple, radiant skin. 5- And most importantly, never forget sunscreen ; ours, in addition to sunblock, contains chamomile extract, green tea, and Vitamin B3 to nourish your skin while protecting it. In this way, little by little, you get to know your skin in its most natural version. Step 3: Listen to your skin You might notice changes at first: more oil , or dryness, or small breakouts. This is part of the process. Your skin is adapting to not receiving occlusive ingredients like silicones and is learning to self-regulate. But if anything burns, inflames, or hurts: stop using it. Your skin is telling you something. Don't forget to give yourself time. Don't strive for "perfect" skin; strive for healthy, strong, and nourished skin. We firmly believe that beauty isn't just what you see in the mirror, but how you make yourself feel every day. That's why our creams, toners, shampoos, and serums are designed to reconnect you with yourself. Slowly and purposefully. We love nature (and we show it with actions) Here, we don't just talk about natural: we live it. All our products are environmentally friendly, our packaging is recyclable, and our formulas are biodegradable. Plus, for every product you buy, we plant a tree in Africa with Evertree. Yes, you take care of your skin and you're also reforesting the world. Not bad, huh? Taking care of your skin doesn't have to be at odds with taking care of the planet. Because in a fast-paced world, we prefer to slow down and have conscious and respectful processes. Because we believe in the power of nature, but also in the importance of formulating with knowledge. Start your ritual today.
