The Ordinary Balancing and Clarifying Serum helps to promote the appearance of visibly clearer skin. Suitable for oily or blemish-prone skin types, the formula offers up to seven benefits.
Infused with sarcosine and L-Carnitine, the clarifying serum works to minimise the look of shine caused by excess sebum production. Patented molecule, polylysine reduces oil visibility while adenosine helps visibly lessen enlarged pores and textural irregularities. Locking in hydration, ecotin and lactococus ferment lysate nourish the skin’s natural moisture barrier for a visibly balanced finish.

Still spots, not worth the price
It feels nice on the skin, dries quickly, and not tacky. My skin looks better, has less blemishes and redness, and looks more glowy. But it hasn’t helped with my breakouts. Hasn’t made them worse though. But after nearly a month hasn’t changed them enough to be worth the price. I look better but not enough for the price of the tiny bottle. Love that it is glass and therefore recyclable though! I used it as part of the routine The Ordinary recommended.
