Everything you need to know about CLEARSTEM Skincare Clearity The Blackhead Dissolver Serum

Overview

What it is

This product is a serum formulated for use on various skin types, including acne-prone, dry, mature, sensitive, combination, and normal. It is designed to exfoliate the skin and help in the removal of excess sebum and impurities. The serum contains a blend of acids to support exfoliation and includes Vitamin C derivatives, which are known for their brightening properties. It aims to improve the appearance of skin brightness and clarity.

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Mandelic Acid - exfoliating agent
  • Lactic Acid - exfoliating agent
  • Ascorbic Acid - antioxidant
  • Glycerin - humectant
  • Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract - astringent
  • Sodium PCA - humectant
  • Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract - antioxidant
  • Hesperidin - bioflavonoid

How it works

The exfoliating serum works by combining several acids, such as Mandelic Acid and Lactic Acid, which serve as exfoliants to help remove dead skin cells and clear pores. Ascorbic Acid, a form of Vitamin C, acts as an antioxidant, aiming to brighten the skin and enhance its appearance. Glycerin and Sodium PCA function as humectants, attracting moisture to the skin to maintain hydration. Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract adds an astringent quality, which can help in refining the skin's texture. Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract provides antioxidant benefits. Hesperidin, a bioflavonoid, contributes to the antioxidant profile of the serum. Together, these ingredients work to promote smoother, more even-toned skin.

Did not do anything

I love Clearstem - I use a ton of clearstem products but this did absolutely nothing for my skin. I discontinued my other products I was using to try this and I immediately started to notice more acne. I used it first just at night, then morning and night and I noticed no improvements. If you have very stubborn acne I would not recommend this product.

Gamechanger

I had a ton of closed comedones all along my jaw and neck that didn't clear despite trying doxy, salicylic acid, and topicals. This cleared nearly all them with 2-3 uses. I love it, will always repurchase!!

Ok

I've used this for several weeks and I can tell it's doing something to my skin but I just can't identify what. I probably won't order this again.

Not for sensitive skin

I will say that this helped dissolve my blackheads in my nose. But if you have sensitive skin, I would suggest not using this product. It made me breakout all over my forehead and cheeks after use. Don't get me wrong. I love their cleanser and vitamin scrub, but this product was not for my sensitive skin.
