Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel

You guys. Seriously. This is everything I wanted The Ordinary's 10% Niacinamide serum to be -- and that serum is fine, btw. But it has an awful texture, and pills up if you so much as LOOK at it wrong. (Incidentally, the star ingredient in this gel is vitamin B5, which is related to Niacinamide (vitamin B3), and also boasts significant anti-inflammatory properties.)But this. This wonder gel... it now occupies pride of place in the serum step of my skincare regime. It's a thin, very light-feeling gel with great slip, which absorbs quickly and completely. It's not particularly moisturizing, so I wouldn't count on it for that, especially if you have dry skin. However, it plays very well both under and over other products -- NO pilling -- so I would recommend it after your other actives, and before sunscreen or moisturizer. It's lovely around the eyes, too!As for the effects: I have never had a product so quickly and dramatically reduce redness in my face before. And in the couple weeks I've been using it, I have mostly definitely seen my breakouts reduce to, basically, nothing. It is not my only anti-acne product, no; and I doubt it would completely rid anyone with more than mild acne to begin with of their condition. But as a vital supporting cast member, this stuff cannot be beat. It's cheap, it feels great on the skin, it's completely non-irritating, and its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties have, at least for me, been a total game changer.VERDICT: My only complaint is that I hadn't found this stuff earlier. From now on, I will not be without it. 10/10

Im 21 and never suffered with spots at all until recentely. I dont know why. I think ots stress and lack of sleep but nothing would get rid. They were constantly always on my tzone very angry red spots. I was so selfconcious! I saw the reviews for this and thought id give it a go! Have been using for just over a week and omg! The spots i had went away so fast and there is no more coming up at all! Im so glad i found this! To keep the spots away i have purchased in total the clear face antibacterial foam, the clear face gel, the pimple gel, the mattyfying cream (as my skin is oily and shiny) and the clear face toner. The smell of all these products is amazing and i love it!!

I have acne prone and sensitive skin and have been adding this gel after washing my face to slightly hydrate before adding my treatments/moisturisers. Lovely non sticky texture, very refreshing and soothing and easy to layer under products. Didn't make me break out nor react. Definitely a good pick for my needs- but if you are expecting to get a lot of hydration from this on its own, then I don't think this is the right product!

I bought some expensive anti blemish skincare, hoping that the new routine with new products with hype reviews would fix my hormonal acne. I ended up having a severe allergic reaction to these so called 'products for acne prone and sensitive skin'. I learnt my lesson when it comes to expensive skincare, and claims about products being dermatologically tested and hypoallergenic, etc. After doing some research into the science behind skincare, I came across a blog article that mentioned this gel and how it was so good at naturally moisturising your skin, without unnecessary additives such as alcohol and fragrance, as well as being an optimal ph level for your skin. (This is VERY important!)This product, hands down, SAVED my skin. Together with the Hada Labo Goku-Jyun moist lotion, My allergic reaction (which gave me very bad acne for 8 MONTHS) subsided and was soothed. This product helped my skin to get back on track after being completely traumatised. I tried so many other products to try and fix what was done to my skin by the expensive anti blemish products and only after I found this and the Hada Labo lotion did it eventually start to go away. Once I found these products, my reaction went away after 6-8 weeks, considering that I suffered for 8 months prior to this I'd say it's a miracle.I have repurchased this product many times, and always reach for this when my skin is feeling irritated, itchy, upset or hot. I know that my skin is in safe hands when I use this product.I have combination-sensitive skin, that easily breaks out due to products not suiting my skin.Would definitely recommend!5 ***** !

Seems to be working well. Not moisturizing enough though

The ingredients are completely non-comedogenic and this product has really improved the texture and quality of my skin. Absolutely adore this product and the brand and will continue to purchase their products in the future. It goes on very smoothly; has no scent and is extremely soothing. If you are acne prone I would highly recommend getting this! You won't be disappointed.Positives+Completely non-comedogenic, considering I break out by even by looking at anything other than water!Light weight - non greasyDries extremely quicklyNon-HeavyCheapGel textureCons-Not an intensive moisturiser, so not suitable for those with dry skinCould have some added vitamin c or ceramides which would be great.

I only received this product a short while ago, but I'm already crazy impressed! I have chronically oily skin and in the past moisturizers have been a total no-go area for me, every single one I've tried has either left me oily soon after or it's just sat on top of my skin no matter what amount I've used. But not this! The first time I put it on i was blown away, not only did it seem to totally disappear into my skin it also seems to have a drying/mattifying effect, which I assume is the difference between a Gel and a regular cream. I barely get oily at all for quite a long time after application, which is something I've not experienced before. I'm eager to look into more SebaMed products ♥ I have seen from a few other people that they prefer CeraVe, either for texture or moisturizing power, but unfortunately haven't yet tried anything by them.
