Q: Can you use this in your body?
submitted by Tamra - 10 months ago
A: Our postbiotic acne serum was specifically formulated to gently yet effectively treat acne, blackheads, and clogged pores on the face. However, feel free to use it on your body as well, as it helps slough off dead skin and clear congestion within pores. It also hydrates and reduces the appearance of inflammation to ensure a clear, comfortable complexion without irritation or dryness. It is also always a good idea to do a patch test before applying the product all over just to be safe.

submitted by user1234 - 2 years ago

submitted by Anonymous - 3 years ago

Q: How long does this typically last if you use it once daily?
submitted by thecatfather - 3 years ago

Q: when should you use this in your skin care routine?
submitted by olivia - 4 years ago
A: Hi! We recommend using after cleansing and toning, before moisturizer! If you’re new to BHA, you can use 2-3x per week and work your way up to once daily at most! ❤️

I started using this regularly about 3 months ago and it has been a game changer. My acne has improved a lot and my skin is getting smoother. I wish I started using this sooner! Definitely recommend.

I had to come back and write a review after over 2 years of using this serum, because in the last few months, I realized I wasn't using it to its full potential! After using it to treat active breakouts, I started using it as a preventative before and throughout my cycle when I tend to break out. I now have virtually no breakouts and zero painful, cystic acne (something I've struggled with my entire adult life). I have so much more confidence and peace of mind not having to worry about the breakout and healing process.

As I've gotten older i've tried many versions of a lightweight acne serum and none worked until I found this one. I have been using it for YEARS and have turned a few of my friends onto using it too. It calms irritation, reduces breakouts, and leaves my skin smoother and more balanced. Highly recommend. this is a must-have in my skincare routine!

This product is a lifesaver in my luteal phase when I'm most prone to breaking out! I start using it at the end of my ovulation phase, and I see WAY less breakouts. It's the product I reach for time and time again. Acne prone friends - this is your product!!

this is quite literally magic! I've tried numerous products on my red, bumpy chin that's very dry and texturized. I've been really insecure about it and it flares up a lot especially on my period. I have been using this product for ONE WEEK night and day with the cocokind texture smoothing cream and it's helped SO MUCH you guys!! I cannot recommend this enough but make sure to also moisturize your skin!

The best acne serum

I love this acne serum! I generally have very sensitive skin and always break out when introducing new products to my skin. I also would have to slowly introduce products because I used to dry out so bad with serums but it was necessary because I break out otherwise. I did not have that issue with this product, it's not harsh but still helps keep my skin balanced.

All of my adult life, I have struggled with acne, which has lead to years of feeling insecure in my own skin. I decided to purchase this serum on a "whim", and I am so incredibly happy I did. Immediately after putting this on my skin, I could tell this was going to be a new staple item in my skincare regime. It makes my skin feel refreshed, without feeling heavy, or leaving a burning sensation. My only regret is not buying this sooner!

I was experiencing the heaviest breakouts I've had in years so I decided to change my skincare routine. I use the post-biotic serum (salicylic acid) in the morning and the retinoid at night and have noticed differences in my skin. Worth a try! I am using this 3x/week to give my skin some rest.

It takes a few days to clear up breakouts on my combo sensitive skin, but at least it doesn't dry me out. I use the Cocokind clay mask as a spot treatment, then serum, then moisturizer, and my acne clears up much faster.

This serum is lightweight and doesn't feel too greasy for my oily skin. I still get breakouts but I like that this stays on the skin as opposed to a salicylic acid cleanser.
