Balance Me Congested Skin Serum, Natural Acne Treatment for Face with Kanuka & Moringa, Non-Drying Spot Serum for Oily, Combination & Sensitive Skin (1 x 0.5 fl oz)

This is wonderful!

Whew chile, I love this product. I use it primarily on my forehead and thick brows that require extra attention and some unusual make-up practices. I fill my brows in with eyeshadow powder instead of a pen because it looks softer and more natural, but I needed a primer that was going to reliably hold it in place as I do produce a lot of oil on my forehead throughout the day. Not only is this the best primer for eye shadows I've ever used, but the ingredients keep me from worrying about breaking out. The 'for congested skin' is accurate and does not effect my skin negatively. I've been using this product for over a year and have never broken out from it. (My skincare routine doesn't change very often)Also, my brow hairs have never complied with brow gel's wishes so I have to double down and use hairspray on them and brush them into place with an eyelash comb. Something in this primer acts like "starch" on my brows like you would use when ironing a shirt. It maximizes the hold on my brows and keeps them in place all day compared to just the hair spray alone. I tried gel over it once as a bored experiment and noticed it increased the hold-strength on brow gel, too.This product alone has cut my brow-prep time in half. I received this product as a sample in my Ipsy bag a while back, which I have been subscribed to for a few years now. I like to try a lot of things and not have to spend all the money and full-sized products. This is one of 3 products I've bought after trying from Ipsy. Absolutely taken with it.

This is the best product I have ever used for blemishes, and that includes adapalene. I'm 70 years old, so I've used lots of products over the years, and I can't believe it but I still get pimples now and then. Nothing I've ever used has really prevented them except for this. I used it for several years, and then what seemed to be the sole source disappeared, and I only found it again very recently when I thought to check Amazon. I am so happy to have it again. Still, I very nearly gave it four stars because of the dispenser, which really needs attention: Sometimes I get just the right amount, sometimes barely any at all, and too often I get not only two or three times more than I need but it practically shoots across the room. It is seriously annoying, but the product itself is wonderful.

This is my go to product to stop a break out from happening or to help reduce when one is going on. I wish they made it in a bigger size!

This product WAS a five star for effectiveness and mitigating pimples. But then the packaging changed and the cap is low quality. It doesn’t even fit the product correctly. I went to use it, the cap went flying and I dropped the METAL bottle on my $400 eye glasses. Also the formula has changed so the jury is still out on its overall effectiveness. It’s a shame when a good company tries to cut corners.

I discovered this product from one of those cosmetic subscriptions when I was pregnant. At the beginning of my pregnancy I skin was starting to break out more but I couldn’t use any harsh spot treatments so I started using this product in three days of using it i noticed a difference in my breakouts. I started using it everyday since and haven’t experience any more breakouts. I’m now 4 months postpartum and I still use this treatment every night before bed and still haven’t had a breakout with all these hormone changes. The smell isn’t bad and it isn’t over drying for my skin type (oily t-zone) I use one pump every night all over my face and it works wonders

Look, I've bought this serum 13 times in 2 years. I use it every single day. As a person with combination skin with hormonal cystic tendencies (yep, even in my 30s), this is a GAME CHANGER. I feel like like the Dad from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" with his Windex because I lit'rally use this stuff almost every where! Pimple? Yep. Hang nail scab? For sure. Scratched over mosquito bite? Def! It heals. It smooths. I'm not being dramatic when I saw it's a miracle for MY skin. Now, not everyone is the same. I totally get that. But if you've struggled with cystic acne that turns into scabs, only to heal right before your next period, well...GET THIS. You won't regret it.

I received a sample size a while ago in my Ipsy subscription. I have dealt with bad breakouts and cystic acne for years. This is one of he few products that works almost instantly. As soon as I feel breakouts coming on, I use this and it clears up within a couple days. Some other reviewers complained about the price for such a small bottle. A little goes a reeeeally long way so it will last a long time. If you are looking for something to help clear up your skin, I absolutely recommend this product. Shipping was really quick too so that's a bonus!
