Product details

A closer look.

Biologique Recherche Complexe Iribiol is a targeted rebalancing serum for oily and blemish-prone Skin Instants experiencing excess sebum, visible pores and recurring imperfections. Its concentrated seven-ingredient formula combines Zinc PCA, Salicylic Acid, Iris Root Extract and Red Poppy Extract. Sebum is not the enemy: it helps protect and lubricate the skin. The concern begins when too much is produced, making pores more visible, increasing shine and making the skin more prone to congestion and imperfections. Rather than simply drying out oily skin, Complexe Iribiol is designed around regulation and balance. With consistent use, skin appears less oily, pores look less noticeable and the complexion feels clearer and more balanced. It is particularly valuable when the concern is not an occasional blemish but a pattern of excess oil, visible pores and recurring imperfections.

Why you’ll love it.

We reach for Complexe Iribiol when clients tell us their skin gets oily again a few hours after cleansing, or that they keep getting little blemishes in the same areas. We think of it for the active blemish and excess-sebum stage; once a blemish has settled and the concern becomes the mark it left behind, our strategy often changes. That is why it can be such an important part of a blemish-prone routine without having to do every job.

How to use
  1. 01

    Apply after cleansing and the Lotion P50 selected for your Skin Instant, and before your moisturizer.

  2. 02

    Apply approximately 1 ml (20 drops) to clean skin over the face, neck and décolleté.

  3. 03

    Massage gently using light upward movements until completely absorbed.

  4. 04

    Pay particular attention to areas where excess sebum and visible pores are most noticeable.

  5. 05

    When layering several serums, apply the lighter formulas first.

  6. 06

    Avoid contact with the eyes. For external use only. Do not use on children under 3 years of age.

Regulation and balance, not drying out.

The targeted serum step for oily, blemish-prone skin, applied after cleansing and Lotion P50 and before your moisturizer. It addresses the active blemish and excess-sebum stage of the routine.

When to use it

It may be part of a daily routine depending on your Skin Instant and the rest of your regimen; Biologique Recherche does not specify that every client must use it twice daily.
Results build with consistent use.

Light, quick to absorb and mattifying.

A lightweight serum massaged in with upward movements until completely absorbed, with a mattifying effect on oily-looking areas.

Works well with

Cleanse, then apply the Lotion P50 selected for your Skin Instant; since both can be active, the P50 version and frequency should be personalized. Apply Complexe Iribiol, layer any other prescribed serums from lightest to richest, then finish with a balancing moisturizer such as Crème Dermopurifiante and sunscreen in the morning. If your skin starts feeling tight or uncomfortable, have your routine reassessed rather than adding more actives.

Your questions, answered.

Does Complexe Iribiol contain salicylic acid?

Yes. Salicylic Acid is one of the seven ingredients in the current formula, combined with Zinc PCA, Iris Florentina Root Extract and Red Poppy Extract.

Does it reduce pores?

It helps visibly reduce the appearance of dilated pores. Pores cannot permanently open or close, but regulating excess sebum and refining surface texture make them look less noticeable.

What is the difference between Complexe Iribiol and Iso-Placenta?

Complexe Iribiol focuses on active blemish-prone, oily skin and excess sebum. Iso-Placenta focuses on post-blemish marks, redness, uneven microrelief and a more even-looking complexion after blemishes.

What is the difference between Complexe Iribiol and Sérum Dermopore?

Both help regulate sebum and improve visible pores. Complexe Iribiol suits skin where blemishes and excess oil are part of the concern; Dermopore focuses more on dilated pores, shine and texture.

Can sensitive skin use Complexe Iribiol?

It depends on your Skin Instant. The formula contains Alcohol Denat. and Salicylic Acid, so highly reactive or compromised skin may need a different approach. Speak with one of our estheticians first.

Can I use it as a spot product?

Biologique Recherche recommends applying approximately 1 ml over the face, neck and décolleté. Your esthetician may suggest concentrating it where excess sebum or imperfections are more noticeable.

Skin Reaction Policy
At Loshen & Crem, we want to ensure you have the best possible experience with Biologique Recherche. Before purchasing any Biologique Recherche product, we highly recommend booking a consultation with one of our estheticians. Consultations are available virtually through Google Meet or in person at our Edmonton boutique. An appointment is required.

In the event of a reaction, Biologique Recherche requires photos of the reaction and the product, the lot number found on the product or the bottom of the box, and proof of a consultation with one of our estheticians before they can review the concern.

If you choose to purchase without a consultation and experience a reaction, we will be unable to provide a refund. Our team is always happy to answer your questions and help you select the products best suited to your skin.

Effective

This serum is effective at doing what it claims to do, but is also very drying! It helps with breakouts, but it does dry out the surrounding area of my skin too, so I have to be careful not to put too much on, or just target the area more specifically. I will probably repurchase

Awesome product

I use it as a spot treatment every evening, works great. Will definitely buy again

Complex Iribiol

I think I have just found the perfect thing to put on my active, oily, yet sensitive skin that is prone to breakouts. I’ve used it for just 1 week and it is truly amazing. I just wish I had discovered it earlier.

Great product!

Really good at keeping my acne at bay, even when I was on vacation in the Caribbean and navigating the heat. Still had a few breakouts returning but this has been my holy grail since I received it.

magic

Finally found the product which actually works !!! It’s like a magic eraser for acne . You can see the difference in just few hours after using this serum ❤️ thank god I decided to give it a try . It doesn’t dry my skin at all which I really like because most of the acne serum dry out your skin . I am in love with this serum even more than my iso placenta 🩷

Good for T zone oiliness

I used on my T zone to control oiliness . Works well

Great for me, not so great for others

This works pretty well, when I have a spot I put it on and it makes it go away after a night, sometimes a night and a day. However on my daughter's skin it kind of helped, but then she was left with scabs that didn't seem to heal well. So we switched and her scabs finally healed -she has acne prone and hormonal skin, it worked for a bit, but consistent use wasn't great for her.

Feels clean!

This serum makes my skin feel clean and less oily! I will definitely repurchase!!

Great for spot treatments!

I've been using the Complexe Iribiol serum for a few weeks, and I must say, it's been a game-changer for my occasional breakouts. The serum feels potent, and I can genuinely see a difference in my skin's clarity.

Most spot treatments burn my skin and are far too harsh… Complexe Iribiol is perfect every time. Powerful and effective to work on breakouts, without damaging my skin.

gentle but effective

This is less drying than traditional spot treatments. It doesn't sting upon application but does reduce the redness and size of the blemish after a couple of uses. I also enjoy the medicinal packaging.

Acne must have!!

The only thing that helps my hormonal acne! A few drops on the areas prone to acne does the trick - and a little goes a long way!

I just purchased my second bottle! I love the antimicrobial properties of this serum. It prevents the formation of hormonal acne for me.

Not sure

Not sure if this serum did anything very visible except for added hydration onto my skin. There wasn't obvious prevention or healing of my hormonal acne which is usually around my chin area. I may retry this later on but for now iso-placenta works better for me.

A

Nice

I’ve finished the entire bottle. I have used it every morning. Can’t say exactly what it did as I don’t have acne prone skin but I did notice the very first morning how radiant my skin looked. I’m looking forward to trying another serum now but do plan on coming back to this one.

Powerful

Fot soots here and there or occasional use for my chin area, 8ml looks like enough size! It is powerful and calms inflammation, and makes a skin recovery and healing a smooth process! Seems to help avoid scarring and dark stains after pimple is gone

Wasn't For Me

I bought this after reading all the great reviews I saw on here but it didn't help with my breakouts at all.
My acne didn't improve and it seems like it just did nothing to my face.

New fav routine

This serum is magic. It soothes my skin, calms it, and ideal for my oily skin. Looking forward to my daily routines with pleasure!

Incredible

It’s pretty wild how well this works. Was in the middle of a painful hormonal breakout before instituting basically an emergency BR routine (to complement my normal drunk elephant skincare) consisting of P50T, this serum, and lotion dermopurificante. It’s hard to say what exactly did the magic trick here but in a matter of THREE DAYS my skin is almost completely clear - all without irritation and dryness. Having used high end skincare my whole adult life - I’ve never seen anything work like this. Worth every penny.

E
Ella

I find this most effective used as a spot treatment rather than all over the face. Helps with deep cystic type blemishes

K

The best acne fighting serum!

This is the best serum I have used for breakouts. I struggle with hormonal acne around my jawline and this is the only serum that has been able to keep my skin clear without drying it out. I always have this in my routine!

Sarah
The Best BR Product In My Opinion

I have acne prone skin and this stuff is incredible! Not too drying for my skin, which I was worried about. I use it as a spot treatment but I also apply it all over my face when I'm travelling/super stressed/on my period and it really helps to calm current breakouts and reduce any future ones.

T
Thi
Amazing Product!

Love using this for hormonal break outs. I tend to break out around my jawline during my period but if I implement this a week before, my skin stays clear and very healthy and the serum doesn't dry out my skin.

L
Lesley
Love it!

Amazing products, fast shipping and great customer service! This my go to site for BR products.

So far so good

Doesn't break my sensitive combination skin out as other BHA. Will repurchase!
