Used this 1 - 2x per week for the last three weeks, and my skin feels soft and smooth the next morning! Love adding this to my routine as a weekly exfoliator.

Shrinks & Smooths

I noticed after the first use my skin felt smoother and after a full month my pores were smaller. I do recommend only using it a few days a week, because daily use may irritate your skin.

Unfortunately made me purge/breakout. I tried it on my chin and it did help smooth it out but on my cheek it gave me two huge inflamed pimples which I’m assuming is either purging or just a reaction. Such a bummer because it seems very gentle but just didn’t work for my sensitive skin that isn’t prone to breakouts.

CLEARED MY SKIN!!!

Guys"¦ this stuff WORKS. I was dealing with breakouts on my forehead and cheeks for months and no amount of pimple patches were working. After using this serum for 3 weeks straight, I noticed a HUGE difference. My skin is so clear now and I feel like I'm not as acne-prone as I used to be!

Tried for a month and saw a noticeable difference!

I used this product religiously for a whole month altering NOTHING else in my routine (be proud of me for trying to utilize the control/variable things I learned from high school). In that time, I found that my skin became noticeably less red and overall calmer and more hydrated. It was a great experience and I plan to repurchase!

This is a great gentle, yet effective exfoliating serum. I would say it's amazing for anyone who experiences mild breakouts and might have some sensitivity and redness, although it is great for most any skin types. I love that it doesn't burn or make the skin peel, but that your skin is glowing the next day. Great value for the sophisticated ingridents, just like everything else from Versed. Highly recommend.

Glowy & Cleared Skin

My acne usually flares up on my cheeks and is extremely stubborn. I used this serum plus Barrier Cream every night for 2 weeks, and this is my skin now. I am so happy with the results and this is by far the most effective serum I've used from Versed. I'm obsessed and use it every night now

Great pore-clearing serum

Love this product, it was gentle on the skin and definitely gave me smoother texture and brighter/even tone. I was worried about a reaction but had none. This is a new favorite that will stay in my skin care routine!
