Reviews

The only serum you'll ever need!

"This product is my most used product in my routine. Primally Pure always kills it, but this serum is literally everything. 1 pump is the perfect base before my morning sunscreen or evening night cream. The hydration from this serum is next-level. This product is 1000% worth the price tag. My only complaint is that I wish the bottle came in bigger sizes."

Josie W. (5/5)

My skin hasn’t looked this good in years!

"I love the clarifying serum. It makes my face feel so soft. It threw me off the first time I used it because it feels oily going on, and to be honest I wasn’t sure I liked the smell, but after a few minutes it just feels satiny on my skin. I like the smell now, too, I guess I just needed to get used to it. I use it morning and night after the clarifying mist, and follow up with the plumping cream before bed. I love all of my Primally Pure products, my face has never looked so good. It’s definitely reduced fine lines and people have noticed!"

Constance B. (5/5)

Great for sensitive skin

"I have really sensitive skin and avoid anything with any synthetic fragrances. This product is very hydrating and although it does only use natural essential oils, the scent from the oils is pretty strong so if you aren't looking for something with a really strong earthy smell, I would not recommend this product."

Lauren M. (4/5)

Use sparingly

"Love this serum but a little goes a long way. I find it to be irritating if using too much or too often. I typically use it as needed if I am dealing with breakouts and it really makes a difference."

Marieanna K. (5/5)

Great serum

"I really like this serum. It does not cause my skin to flair up at all and I have sensitive skin. I love the way it feels on my face and smells great too. I went through it quickly however as I used day and night so I recommend a larger size. I recommend and will be purchasing again."

Kaveri R. (5/5)

Luminous Serums

"While I prefer the truly clean scent of the Soothing and Hemp Serums, all of these products--including the Clarifying Serum-are top tier. They are wonderfully moisturizing, naturally, with true staying power, even enabling me to awaken each morning with moist and silky eyelids (which normally tend to dry out somewhat overnight). I am beyond grateful to have found this stellar brand, and am savoring the opportunity to add new products to my daily rituals. I am now a devoted customer."

Dr. M. (5/5)

Love this serum! It's lightweight

"Love this serum! It's lightweight but also still leaves me feeling moisturized and glowy with ingredients I can feel good about. And it smells so good!"

Erica S. (5/5)

Love!

"This serum leaves my skin so hydrated and it has helped calm breakouts. It doesn’t smell quite as good as all the other pp products, but it is so effective. It has a very luxurious feel."

Claire N. (5/5)

My fav!!!!!

"Now I know it's a bit expensive. . . but trust me! So worth it! I use this as the second step in my nightly skincare routine & LOVE it! After using my oil cleaner for dry skin, I apply one little squirt (so it lasts longer) & then followed by a balm. I know the smell might be a little funky to some but honestly it's so nostolgic to me for the time I started using it, so I don't mind it! But truly can't go wrong with any of their products!"

Sarah F. (5/5)

Bright citrus scent and soft dewy finish

"Loving the refreshing orange scent of this serum. It leaves a nice soft glow without feeling shiny or greasy."

Q&A

I have acne prone skin and sensitive skin. I mainly get acne on my chin and around mouth. My face tends to be dry and I have very dry eczema patches on my hairline and eyes. Would you recommend this product or the soothing line?
Please reach out to hello@primallypure.com for further assistance. :)
I started using the clarifying line about 2.5 weeks ago. This week I noticed whiteheads started appearing around t zone. Is this possibly part of the purging process?
Switching your entire regimen can be a big adjustment for your skin and it can take time for your skin pH to rebalance with the new oil-based products. To help with the transition you can try cutting down your Cleansing Oil routine to every other night (or even cutting it out for a few weeks) while your skin continues to transition. You would use a Cleansing Bar or another gentle cleanser from another clean brand for other cleanses. We have put together all the information you’ll need to reap the benefits of Cleansing Oil, Oil Cleansing Method (Why It Works and How To Do It). You can also focus on exfoliating the areas that are experiencing the breakouts, either with a mask or a gentle scrub. If you're still not seeing improvement after a few weeks, then it might be time to reevaluate. We'd be happy to help troubleshoot further or even process a return or exchange for anything that isn't working for you. :)
does this product have SPF?? I saw that the vitamin K and fatty acids have zinc, so does it protect from UV?
Thanks for your question! This product does not have SPF but we are looking to have an SPF product in the near future. Please check back!
is this safe to use while pregnant?
Hi Sandra, Taking extra precautions when it comes to nurturing little lives is of the utmost importance to us. We’ve done extensive research in regards essential oil use during pregnancy + while nursing, and feel confident that all of our products (aside from Fancy Face Serum for which we offer a pregnancy-safe version) do not pose a risk for pregnant/nursing women. Check with your healthcare practitioner prior to use if you have questions/concerns. We hope this helps! xo, The Pure Team
Is this also helpful for anti-aging? Trying to decide whether to try this or to reorder Fancy Face Pregnancy Safe. Thanks!
Hi Katie, Both of these serums have anti-aging properties as well as brightening + acne fighting properties. :) XO,
