Best acne serum!

I have sensitive, oily,and acne prone skin that is excrutiatingly difficult to treat. Most things that treat acne end up worsening the condition or making my face itchy and irritated. This serum really focuses on soothing,healing, and fighting the cause of acne at the same time. Finally, someone gets it! Thank you for creating this!

Thank you!!

I have struggled with cystic, inflammatory acne combined with dry, sensitive skin for years. This product has not only cleared up my skin better than anything else I've tried, but it has done so without causing dryness or irritation. I am so thankful to have found this product.

Actually Works

I needed something for my cystic acne because cysts are the majority of acne I have on my face. I went to the dermatologist and they gave me medicine to use, but it still did not work. I wanted to try this, the day after I put it on the cyst was reduced significantly.

Great for Rosacea and Cystic acne

I am amazed by the results of this product!! I saw a huge difference in only 3 days! I was able to come off of my antibiotic I was on for Rosacea/ cystic acne. It has calmed down my redness too! I have been telling everyone about this! I have never had anything work this well for me. THANKS MyChelle!

Great for Shave Bumps!

I love this serum! I smooth it on after shaving, and it's the only thing I've tried that really works for shaving irritation. Thank You!

I'm Amazed!

I have only used the sample so far, but even overnight using it my acne calmed down super fast, It even helped with a lot of the redness I had just overall on my skin.

I'm really excited to get more of it!

Good stuff

I'm in my mid 20's, but still get acne and breakouts.
I've used benzoyl peroxide creams in the past, and while they worked a little to reduce acne, they made my face flake badly as well.
This serum is really gentle with good ingredients and works much better than anything else I've tried to clear up my face. It's light and works really well under powder makeup too.

This Product works!

I really love this product and it works for me! It's light, not oily and leaves a clean finish. It seemed to really tackle my acne problem gently and I have not had many breakouts since using it. It's on my staple list.
