If you are a big fan of skincare, then, your chances are very high of knowing the term 'beauty ampoules'. In fact, you must be wondering as to what on earth are they and why are they causing quite a stir in the town.

So, what exactly are beauty ampoules? Beauty ampoules or 'ampoules' as they are commonly known to the masses are basically a high concentration of various ingredients that are meant to treat the skin by offering numerous benefits such as improving fine lines, dull skin, dark spots, anti-ageing effects among many others.

Okay, now, you must be wondering – isn’t that why serums are for? Well, that’s half-true – yes, ampoules act the same way as that of a serum, but they have a few differences. When it comes to ampoules, you can think of them as an advanced version of the serum – which means that the ampoules are made in a way so that they can treat a specific issue with your skin while packing in a powerful punch. In short, you can say that ampoules consists of one or two ingredients that can help you with a specific skin concern, and are much more potent enough than your usual serum.

Intended for short use because of their potent effects, ampoules often comes in a sealed small vial of glass – a packaging concept taken from the medical industry – so as to preserve and deliver only the needed dosage, without the risk of leaks and contamination.

As mentioned before, ampoules are highly concentrated serum meant to nourish, moisturise and even repair the skin. Because of their potent abilities, ampoules are often in a sealed small glass vial. You know that the glass itself is quite fragile, so, you should be cautious enough to know how to handle glass and treating the ampoules with utmost caution.

Back in the days, when the term 'ampoules' is relatively new, and when many hadn’t even known what an ampoule is, in those days, an ampoule had to be opened by snapping its head off, so that the serum can be used.

Even today, there are a few brands of ampoules of which you have to open them by snapping off their heads. If that’s the case, your best bet is to take the aid of either a towel or tissue paper around the head of the ampoule when opening up the glass vial – though method had proven to be quite a safety hazard – and as such, many accidents were heard, like getting small glass shards into the serum inside, losing the ampoule head and getting lacerations on your hands from the jagged glass of the vial.

But thankfully, today, the scenario has changed. Now, the ampoules of almost all brands come with a dropper attached to the lid, which itself is made either from rubber or plastic, so as to prevent leaks and contaminations – and all you need to do is to rotate the lid and insert the dropper into the serum for your required dosage.

Despite the ampoules coming in with an attached dropper, there are a few brands of ampoules who still goes by the traditional method – you will have to snap off the head of the ampoules.

If you ever find yourself in that situation, here’s what you can do – you can buy an ampoule opener/cutter (you will find them at online stores like Amazon) – and take note of a few things.

Also, take note of whether the ampoule opener makes it easy for the head of the ampoule to be disposed of safely. If the ampoule opener ticks all of these boxes, then, you are good to go.
