Twice as strong as our original Oxygen Rich Gel, our Super Charged version is excellent for fighting acne. This product is our replacement for Benzoyl Peroxide. Here at Garden of Wisdom, we are genuinely opposed to Benzoyl Peroxide. Our research shows that benzoyl peroxide, although it helps kill bacteria and fight acne, ages the skin tremendously over time. Eventually, Benzoyl Peroxide stops working long-term altogether. We have learned that Benzoyl Peroxide is unstable, causing free radicals, while stabilized oxygen has the ability to fight the free radicals our skin is subjected to.
We do not believe all oxygen products are created equal. For those fighting acne, we feel they are lacking healthy oxygen to fight the bacteria. Typically, if not always, acneic skin is acidic, so adding healthy oxygen (alkaline) will fight this condition without causing aging.
This product does NOT bleach the skin.
Sodium Chloride (Salt) is added to Water to increase electrical conductivity, facilitate the manufacturing process that separates the oxygen molecules from the H2O, and stabilizes the oxygen in the water. (this is a proprietary process from our supplier to achieve this) The end result is a highly stabilized oxygen that is far different than the original ingredients and very, very low in sodium and chloride.
Method of Application
This Super Charged Oxygen Rich 15% Gel can and should be applied twice per day after cleansing and before continuing your routine. This allows the oxygen to feed the skin and control the acne bacteria. Proceed once your skin has dried.
Apply a few drops of this serum on your clean finger tips, and smooth it across clean skin. Use during the water soluble phase of your skin routine (after you cleanse, tone, and exfoliate, but before you apply any oils or creams).
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

This gel is truly wonderful for getting rid of blemishes super quickly. It can be a tad drying if over-used, but it has not caused redness or irritation. It works so much better than any of the numerous prescription and over-the-counter acne creams and gels I have tried over the years. I will gladly trade a touch of dryness for a day or two versus an eruption of pimples. When I just use a tiny bit, it stops the pimple in its tracks and has also faded post-acne marks very well. I am also grateful that it is a safer and more effective alternative to benzoyl peroxide and will not bleach my pillowcases or towels like benzoyl peroxide has in the past. I also trust it is safe for my skin in the long-term. This company is amazing, especially if you have sensitive and finnicky skin like me.
Kim,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful and detailed feedback! We’re delighted to hear that our gel has been such a game changer for your blemish care routine. It’s wonderful to know that it not only works quickly but also does so without causing redness or irritation! This is a great testament to our commitment to gentle, effective formulations.
We appreciate your perspective on the slight dryness trade off, and it’s comforting to hear that just a tiny amount is enough to stop a pimple in its tracks and even help fade post-acne marks. Your trust in our product as a safer, long-term alternative to
benzoyl peroxide () and one that doesn’t damage pillowcases or towels is pretty cool.
We’re especially touched by your kind words about our company and our dedication to supporting sensitive and finicky skin types. It’s customers like you who inspire us to keep creating solutions that are effective, gentle, and trustworthy.
Thank you for trusting us with your skincare, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need further guidance or support.

The only thing that’s worked in my 5 year struggle with Acne
I’ve been struggling with severe comedonal and hormonal acne for nearly 5 years and this is the first product I’ve tried that’s actually healed my skin! I’ve tried major brands like clearstem and primally pure and yet they come nowhere close to what this serum can do. I will be purchasing for the rest of my life! Thank you Garden of Wisdom, I am forever grateful!
Wow! This absolutely made our day! We’re beyond happy to hear that the Oxygen Rich Gel has been a game-changer in your skincare journey! Hearing that it’s helped where so many other products haven’t is exactly why we do what we do. Thank YOU for trusting us with your skin.
We’re so grateful to have you as part of the GOW family!

Oxygen Rich Super Charged 15% Gel
There is nothing like this product to quickly get rid of a blemish. I’ve used this for years, along with my (now) grown kids. We all love it! I also use it post lip wax and no more little pimples.
We very much appreciate you taking the time to review this product! Thank you!
As a senior I didn't know what to expect. However, in the last two weeks I have noticed that my deep wrinkles look smoother and fuller. i realize it's important to persevere if one wants to make a change. So I'll continue using it morning and night. Thank you for a quality product!
This is the best cream for “mature” skin. I have tried many highly recommended expensive products but this is the only one that actually works, together with a couple of other GOW products as recommended by Jen, to give my skin that “youthful glow” as commented on by my friends. I especially appreciate the natural ingredients with no strange chemicals!
However, as good as this cream is, it is eclipsed by the amazing customer service and suggestions from Jen who tolerated my multiple questions and responded so quickly that I felt as if I was their only customer!
Thank you Jen and GOW for all your help and wonderful products.

Magical for my whole body!
I love using this on my body. It's magical on knees and elbows. Definitely reviving for dry/rough skin and magical for the rest of my body. Hope this gets made into a body lotion.

So far I like the PPSO and the way the oil quickly absorbs into the skin
So far I like the PPSO and the way the oil quickly absorbs into the skin. The only issue is that I keep forgetting that I have it in the refrigerator.

Banishes redness
Bought this for my husband to treat redness on his face. It's hard to get him to use products. Started with a sample. I worked, so he asked me to order more. He must really like it. Thanks Garden of Wisdom!

Great for clogged pores
This product works well on my sensitive skin. It has helped clear clogged pores on my nose as well as reduce small bumps that frequently appear on my cheeks. I'll keep this one on hand at all times.

Best lotion ever!
This lotion is the best I’ve ever found! Sinks in beautifully, providing moisture to dry, cracked hands and itchy, flaky legs. After many years of searching for the perfect lotion, I’ve found the one! The aroma is subtly beautiful (sea of blue)- love everything about this product :). Thank you Garden of Wisdom!,

This Is THE Lotion
All the things skin is supposed to do, (like holding in hydration and moisture, shedding naturally, and remaining intact to provide a barrier against the elements) my skin doesn't. What it does do, is react to everything (including my own sweat) as an enemy, and block and inflame random pores as revenge upon me for trying to moisturize so the itching doesn't drive me to madness.
This lotion has been genuinely miraculous. At best, others help one problem but cause another. This one interrupts the cycle, and has actually made my skin healthier. To echo another review, please never stop making this.
Well…first off, I need to confess I did not pay attention and I have been using this on my face. Just a drop but it’s been really great! In the winter my skin is so dry and needs an oil and this is what I had so…I used it. No complaints, it did the job and my skin is really clear and hydrated. I will have to get the face version and use this for my body but I do really like it!
Colleen 😊
I love your 'confession'. It's honest, raw, and appreciated.
We are happy to know this helped to clear, condition, and retain hydration in your skin.
We look forward tohearing what you think about the facial oil.
Thank you,
Markey
I’ve never used oil based cleanser before; I was hesitant to try it because I have combination skin
I’ve never used oil based cleanser before; I was hesitant to try it because I have combination skin. My T zone does feel a bit oily when I’m done using this product but before long that diminishes. So for winter weather, this product has been fine - will have to see how it goes once the hot, humid weather returns
Hi there! We're glad to hear that you gave our Blemish Prone Cleansing Oil a chance, even though you were hesitant at first. We understand that combination skin can be tricky to manage, especially with oil-based products. We're happy to hear that the oiliness has diminished after using the product and that it has been fine for you during the winter weather.
We recommend continuing to use it and monitoring its performance during the hot and humid weather.
Thank you for trying our product.
Welcome to the GoW Family ☺️
I’ve tried so many eye creams and serums over the years and nothing has come close to Beautiful Eyes Serum w/Regu-age! The skin around my eyes is extremely sensitive and I’ve had reactions to most products—ranging from burning and irritation to clogged pores and increased milia. This serum has caused zero side effects and is very soothing to my sensitive skin. That alone would have been enough to keep me coming back for more… but the results have been ASTOUNDING!!!
Beautiful Eyes has truly taken years off of my appearance! My eyes look larger than they have in years because the product does such an incredible job tightening the skin on my eyelids! I’ve also seen a DRASTIC reduction in the lines underneath my eyes and my crows feet are nearly non-existent when I’m not smiling. I’m blown away!!
Every time I get complimented on my youthful appearance, I always recommend Garden of Wisdom and this magical serum. Thank you, Markey, for crafting the cleanest, most effective products on the market! I’ll be a customer for life!!!

⋆.˚✮ ✮˚.⋆ for taking the time to share this. Hearing that you’re noticing your skin look smoother and fuller with continued use means a great deal to us.
Skincare changes take patience, and your note about perseverance really resonates. As someone who is almost 70 myself, I understand how important it is to give the skin time and consistency, and to choose products that feel supportive rather than aggressive.
Thank you for your trust and for being part of Garden of Wisdom.
