How long does your serum last? What do you use - budget not £££

I started using a body shop vitamin e serum recently and really like it. But even just using one or two squirts a day I am going through it rather fast! Confused

How long does yours last?

What do you use?
I'm on a fairly strict SAHM budget so nothing too £££ unfortunately.

Right, so how ARE you supposed to use 'serum' then? How does it differ to moisturiser? Do you use both? What first? What about 'illuminating cream' = where does that come in the grand scheme of things? What's the ideal beauty routine? I get VERY confused!

Lore I've never used serum but I got a makeover last week and they used serum and my face did look fresher but it was £58! Sorry but I wouldn't pay that but I'm sure you use it under moisturiser but someone more helpful will be able to say for sure Smile

loreilee according to the L'Occitane SA I know you're supposed to use serum as a boost or if special properties as a treat. Certainly not every day.

But some here do use it every day.

I was going to start a thread like this today. I use Protect and perfect from Boots but only get about 3-4 weeks out of it. I get lots of compliments on my skin and it's always on a 3 for 2 offer but still. It's just not long enough. Might have to look at decleor.

I use the Lush full of grace. Like it & it smells lovely

I use boots serum, it doesn't last long! I put argan oil on my face at night. And hot cloth cleansing.
