Effective Serum for Calming Red, Inflamed Pimples

I tried the 5% Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate Serum as part of the Acne Skincare Set for Dry and Sensitive Skin, and it has proven to be another hit. I was struggling with red, painful pimples, and this serum was recommended to me. Its consistency is more like a tonic—it's quite watery and lightweight.

This serum has significantly helped in calming down those red, inflamed pimples and reducing their appearance. I’ve noticed that I no longer get those red, painful pimples as much. It’s suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Although it’s easy to overlook, this product truly delivers results. If you’re dealing with severe acne and need a gentle, effective product to soothe redness and soreness, this serum is definitely worth trying.

The GOAT

This product has helped reduce my painful and sore pimples. I only have one or two every few months now. A consistent queen!!! This serum has been part of my skincare routine for 2 years. Love it.
