KraveBeautyNew Great Barrier Relief, Soothing Skin Barrier Repair Serum, Contains Tamanu Oil to Soothe and Calm Redness, For All Skin Types, Vegan & Cruelty Free, 1.52 fl oz

Okay...I can't believe I'm saying this, but it really works for acne. At least for mine. I'm about to turn 41 and have suffered with chin acne for nearly a decade. I've tried way way way too many products, and most things make me break out more. I heard about this and the matcha hemp cleanser years ago and how they're good for sensitive skin and acne. I only just now decided okay well might as well give this a try...and I really should've tried it sooner.In just 2 weeks, I genuinely have seen an improvement in my troubled areas. It has not irritated my skin or caused additional breakouts. My skin feels very soothed. The product is light weight and not greasy.The only teeny tiny downside is that it smells like celery. My face now smells like celery. At first I did question if I could deal with that, because it felt quite strong. But tbh, within a couple days I stopped even noticing it. And the benefits totally outweigh the celery smell.I will 100000% be purchasing this again. Without question.

Love this serum! It’s one of my go-tos in my nighttime routine and has made such a difference in calming and repairing my skin barrier. The texture is soothing, absorbs well, and leaves my skin soft and nourished by morning. A must-have for sensitive or stressed skin!

Really nice serum that has helped heal my skin barrier. The smell is earthy but dissipates and doesn’t bother me. I will definitely keep this product in my daily routine!

This is such a wonderful serum. Its definitely the reason my skin has recovered. Im actually on Accutane right now and its the reason my skin is so hydrated and healthy looking. It definitely looks dewy on the skin I only use it at night and I wake up and my skin looks flawless. Highly recommended

I bought this product after hearing about it for years. I have been using Tamanu oil for years and I recognized the smell immediately. Yes, for many people it smells funny but I’m use to it since I’ve been using Tamanu oil for so long now. Anytime I was extra inflamed, had a really bad pimple, or something like that I would massage tamanu oil in that location and it would be better the next day. I always believe it was an under hyped product and thought I wish there was a serum for that so imagine how excited I was to find out this had my all time favorite oil. It does help with skin irritation and inflammation.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:I’ve been a huge Krave fan for years. I’ve bought well over a dozen of these serums alone over the years. Now, I hadn’t repurchased this in about 3/4 years for no reason at all other than I guess I just forgot to or something came up. Never because I found something I liked more. This was my all time favorite serum, if that’s what you’d call it. It made my skin so soft and soothed and hydrated, especially in the throes of adjusting to tretinoin when everything besides water stung my skin. I was so happy when this showed up as a rec for me on here and I had to get it.They’ve changed everything about this. The bottle no longer feels luxurious and high quality, it used to be glass with a very nice cap. Now it feels like the cheapest, flimsiest plastic ever. Also, the formula has changed. It’s a lot thinner than it used to be, and the fragrance is different as well. I don’t know, it’s not the same. It’s a shame when something like this happens. They had a great thing goin for sure. I’ll have to get back to you on how it makes my skin react long term, not my initial impression isn’t great.UPDATES: NEW REVIEWDO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!i knew this item felt light when i first purchased it, but i assumed it was because they changed from glass to cheap plastic bottles. this is not the case. the outer plastic bottle is just for show! none of the actual product is in the bottle! it’s in a tiny little balloon that is INSIDE the bottle you can’t see unless you unscrew it! you aren’t getting the amount the that you would if they actually filled that outside bottle. it’s a scam. i loved this brand for years and have repurchased their items over a dozen times. they’re still charging the same they did when they had FILLED, GLASS bottles!

Just a preface. I absolutely love this product. I think it works bomb and is helpful on the skin, especially if you deal with red patches or combination skin. My only beef with this company is for the price the amount of product needs to match because the packaging is really a cover-up for the fact that it’s a tiny amount of product. When i unwrapped the plastic and unscrewed the top to pull on it, it’s a literally a tiny rubber bulb of product. Don’t overcharge me and lie like that.

Not my first time buying it and frankly I'm usually torn between Stratia Gold and this product! But when I accidentally caused a rash with some new unknown cream and damaged my skin barrier, it was only this product that my skin could tolerate and it did heal me pretty fast! I'm not particularly big on the scent that comes with it but I can tolerate it for the sake of my healthy complexion.
