Clarifying Serums

Sort by

31 products

Clarifying serums help regulate oil, keep pores clear and calm breakouts, without stripping the skin. They're designed to bring oily and congested skin back into balance rather than dry it out.

Who they're for

Oily, combination, congested and blemish-prone skin, including adult and hormonal breakouts, enlarged-looking pores and post-breakout marks.

Key ingredients to look for

Salicylic acid (BHA), azelaic acid, niacinamide, benzoyl peroxide, zinc, sulfur and retinoids, plus soothing ingredients that keep the skin comfortable.

How to use

Apply after cleansing to the whole face or to targeted areas, as directed. Introduce one active at a time, follow with a light moisturizer, and wear SPF daily.

Expert insight from Loshen & Crem

Congestion is rarely solved by drying the skin out. Stripping oily skin triggers more oil and more irritation. Our approach in the facial studio is to clarify and calm at the same time, and to keep the skin hydrated while we do it.

Frequently asked questions

Salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide? Salicylic acid dissolves the oil and debris inside pores, which helps blackheads and congestion. Benzoyl peroxide targets breakout-causing bacteria, which helps inflamed blemishes. Many routines use both, at different times of day.

How long before I see results? Give a clarifying serum six to eight weeks of consistent use. Skin renewal takes time.
