What are skincare capsules and how to use them|No7

While following a daily skincare routine is an effective way to maintain a healthy-looking complexion, skin occasionally needs an extra dose of nourishing ingredients to look and feel its best. That’s why skincare capsules are a great addition to your skincare routine.

Delivering a single dose of potent ingredients, capsules for skin can be added into your routine to target specific concerns as desired.

Keep reading to learn more about skincare capsules, their benefits and how to use them, as we introduce you to our No7 Advanced Ingredients Facial Skincare Capsules.

Skincare capsules: what are they and why use them?

Skincare capsules are tiny containers that provide a highly potent dose of nourishing ingredients (like Vitamin C, Vitamin E or Hyaluronic Acid) to the skin. Capsules for skin are beneficial for three key reasons:

Skincare personalisation: capsules can be added to your routine when needed, to target specific skin concerns.
Maintaining ingredient potency: they are carefully sealed to keep the damaging effects of light and air out, ensuring the ingredients don’t lose potency.
Portion control: each capsule contains one perfectly dosed usage, delivering the exact amount for best efficacy.

How to use skincare capsules

Complementary to a regular skincare routine, capsules for the face can be applied morning or night.

After cleansing and toning, open the skincare capsule by gently twisting the tab around twice. Squeeze the formula onto your fingertips, then smooth over the face and neck. Follow up with your favorite No7 Serum and Day Cream.
