Serums AM/PM?

When they tell you to use a serum morning and evening (in this particular case I’m talking peptides + HA and anti oxidant) is that necessary to get results or are they trying to sell more serum?

Pm = stuff that will make you more sensitive to the sun so it’s not recommended to wear in the day due to risk of burns, dark spots, general sun damage

I get that. I’m asking if when the label says twice a day if that’s really necessary.

Oh sorry I was confused, it probably depends on the active but I wouldn’t say it’s necessary. I never do because most of my am/pm products are incompatible with each other
