How to Use Some By Mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow Serum Safely and Correctly
To maximize the benefits of Some By Mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow Serum South Africa and ensure safe usage, please follow these steps:
-
Patch Test (Essential for South African Skin): Before incorporating into your routine, apply a small amount to a discreet area (like your inner forearm) and wait 24 hours. This is especially important in South Africa due to varying skin sensitivities and environmental factors. If no irritation occurs, proceed with regular use.
-
Cleanse Your Face: Begin with a gentle cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities. Pat your skin dry.
-
Apply Toner (Optional): If you use a toner, apply it before the serum. This helps balance your skin's pH.
-
Dispense and Apply Serum: Use the dropper to dispense a few drops of Some By Mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow Serum South Africa onto your fingertips.
-
Gently Massage: Apply the serum evenly across your face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area. Gently pat and massage it into your skin for optimal absorption.
-
Follow with Moisturizer: After the serum is absorbed, apply your regular moisturizer to lock in hydration and further nourish your skin.
- Sunscreen is Crucial (South Africa's Sun): Vitamin C can increase sun sensitivity. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day, especially in South Africa's strong sun. This is non-negotiable for protecting your skin and maximizing the serum's benefits.
Precautions and Safety Measures for South African Customers:
- Start Slowly: If you are new to vitamin C serums, begin by using it 2-3 times a week, gradually increasing frequency as your skin adjusts.
- Morning or Night: You can use this serum in the morning or evening. If using in the morning, always follow with sunscreen.
- Avoid Mixing with Strong Actives (Initially): If you use other active ingredients like AHAs, BHAs, or retinoids, introduce this serum gradually and monitor your skin's reaction. Consider using them at different times of the day or on alternate days initially.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat to maintain the potency of the vitamin C.
- Discontinue if Irritation Occurs: If you experience persistent redness, irritation, or discomfort, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
Potential Side Effects of Some By Mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow Serum
While Some By Mi Galactomyces Pure Vitamin C Glow Serum South Africa is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects, especially when first introducing vitamin C into their routine:

- Slight Redness: Some initial redness might occur, especially for sensitive skin. If it persists or worsens, reduce frequency of use.
- Dryness or Flakiness: Vitamin C can sometimes cause temporary dryness. Ensure you are using a good moisturizer.
- Breakouts (Purging): In rare cases, some individuals may experience mild purging as the skin detoxifies. This should subside within a few weeks.
What to Do If Side Effects Occur:
- Reduce Frequency: Decrease the number of times you use the serum per week.
- Apply Moisturizer: Ensure you are using a hydrating moisturizer to combat dryness.
- Discontinue Use: If irritation is severe or persistent, stop using the product and consult a dermatologist, particularly if you have pre-existing skin conditions or concerns in the South African climate.

-
Special Care:
- Prevent Oxidation: Vitamin C is sensitive to air and light. Proper storage is crucial to prevent oxidation and maintain its effectiveness.
