Troubleshooting common winter serum issues
New breakouts after starting a serum: First check if the formula is aimed at dry or mature skin rather than being very rich and heavy. If clogged pores keep increasing over two to three weeks, stop the serum and let your skin settle before trying something lighter or asking a dermatologist for advice.

Troubleshooting common serum issues
If new breakouts show up after starting a serum, check the rest of your routine as well—heavy creams, sunscreen, or makeup can also clog pores. Pause any new products, focus on a gentle cleanser, your serum, and a non-comedogenic moisturiser and sunscreen, and reintroduce other items slowly.
