A: Hi! Our Postbiotic Acne Serum hasn’t been specifically tested for post-inflammatory erythema (PIE), but it’s designed to help with common acne-related concerns like breakouts, blackheads, and clogged pores - without being harsh on skin. It combines 1.5% salicylic acid to gently exfoliate with microbiome-friendly postbiotics and beta glucan to hydrate, support skin barrier health, and help calm visible redness. Hope this helps!

A: Our postbiotic acne serum was specifically formulated to gently yet effectively treat acne, blackheads, and clogged pores on the face.

Wow. I will buy this forever. My skin and this serum are a match made in heaven. Literally! I have always struggled with hormonal chin acne for as long as I can remember. Within DAYS of using this serum AM & PM, my skin is the clearest it's been since middle school. Not only is my hormonal acne gone, but my nose bumps/congestion have disappeared as well. I have tried so many products, and even tested no products at all, but this is finally the serum for me! I feel so confident in my skin again. Don't hesitate to try this one - especially if you relate to my skin issues. Please never discontinue this perfect serum < 3 Thank you, cocokind!!!

Best acne serum I've ever used

Kirsti P. - 2 months ago

I did not realize how amazing this product was until I tried a different one that was a larger amount at a cheaper price point. The product I'm using now dries my skin out quite a bit and also stings, plus since I started using it, I seem to be breaking out more. So, needless to say, once I run out of what I have, I will be going right back to the postbiotic acne serum. It's not drying at all, which I was so surprised by, and it smells great. Plus it keeps my acne under control. Thanks for such an awesome product!

I added this to my daily routine over two weeks ago and am absolutely amazed by how much less acne I'm developing. The best part is it doesn't strip my skin but is potent enough that I'm noticing any acne that does develop is healing like 3x quicker. Love it and plan on purchasing it again :)
Help for my Menopausal Mature Skin

Decided to get this to try to help my menopausal mature skin! Recently I ve been getting some acne/breakouts flaring up so needed something to help try to relieve that. I've been applying it prior to my moisturizer. I like how its not sticky and it absorbs pretty well into my skin. I have started to see a little difference so I will definitely keep using it!
Ha! Take that hormonal acne!

Texture & Scent: Lightweight, milky texture that absorbs quickly without feeling sticky. Scent is mild and cleanâ€"no artificial fragrance, just a subtle fresh vibe. How it works with other products: Layers beautifully under moisturizer and SPF, and plays well with other actives like the Vitamin C and azelaic acid in the Cocokind Vitamin C Glow Serum. No pilling, no weird interactions. Results: After 3 weeks of consistent use, my hormonal breakouts (chin + jawline) were noticeably reduced. Fewer flare-ups, less redness, and healing time improved. Skin looked calmer and more balanced overall. Irritation or Sensitivity: None! Even with sensitive skin, I experienced no stinging or dryness. Its gentle but effective. Would I repurchase? Yes absolutely. Its become a staple in my acne-management routine. Cocokind proves again that great skincare doesnt have to be expensive.
