Alles over ampullen - de snelle mooimakers van je huid

Does your skin need more glow or more care? Then ampoules might be the solution. There are countless ways to care for your skin, and we've already highlighted a few products in this blog. If you want to give your skin a real boost, you can add an ampoule to your routine. We'll tell you all about it.

This is an ampoule
An ampoule is a small glass 'bottle' containing a highly concentrated skincare treatment that gives your skin a significant boost. All unnecessary substances are removed, leaving only the active and best ingredients. Each ampoule has a specific purpose, such as reducing fine lines or providing extra hydration. You often buy ampoules in a set, as one ampoule doesn't last long. In fact, it's often intended to use an ampoule all at once. The texture of an ampoule is often very thin, watery, or sometimes a bit gel-like.

Why is an ampoule in a glass bottle?
An ampoule is indeed in a glass bottle that you have to break open. But why is it in this packaging? Your facial care contains various active ingredients that make it work as it should. These substances are sensitive to external influences. Think of a jar of face cream that comes into contact with oxygen, light, and bacteria every time the jar is opened. This does not happen with an ampoule. Because an ampoule is airtight and is used immediately after opening, the quality remains perfect.

How do you use ampoules in your routine?
Ampoules are a bit pricier than other skincare products, precisely because they are super powerful. Of course, you can choose to use them every day, but that can become quite expensive over time. Therefore, it's better to see ampoules as an extra treat when your skin really needs a boost. For example, when your skin has been exposed to a lot of sun or when you have many imperfections. But also for a special day when you want to look extra radiant, you can use an ampoule. It also depends on which ampoule you choose for which purpose.

How do you open an ampoule?
An ampoule is in a glass bottle. Some packages come with a plastic 'tool' that you can place on the neck of the ampoule to break it open. Or a 'cap' is included, which allows you to easily open and close it. But even without this tool, you can easily open an ampoule. Always do this carefully, as it is still glass and you can cut yourself. Hold your ampoule between a towel and break it open. Depending on the ampoule you choose, you can use it all at once or multiple times.
