Garden of Wisdom'sSulfur Clearing Serum is a powerful yet gentle solution designed to target breakouts, regulate oil production, and support overall skin clarity. Perfect for all skin types, this serum works as both a spot treatment and a preventative solution for acne-prone skin. Its liposome base enhances penetration, ensuring the active ingredients are effectively absorbed while keeping the skin hydrated. This advanced formula combines potent botanical extracts and minerals to combat acne while soothing and healing the skin. Rosemary Verbenone Hydrosol acts as a gentle sebum regulator, boosting circulation and delivering antioxidant benefits, while aloe vera gel calms irritation, promotes healing, and provides mild antibacterial properties. Oregano leaf extract further enhances the antibacterial and antiseptic effects, helping to fight acne-causing bacteria. For hydration and skin barrier protection, glycerin locks in moisture, while zinc oxide provides a soothing and protective layer. Sulfur powder actively dries blemishes, reduces excess oil, and prevents clogged pores, making it a key ingredient for clear skin. DIM powder (Diindole Methane) from cruciferous vegetables supports hormonal balance and detoxification, addressing acne from within. Aspen bark extract delivers antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits, while white licorice root extract (Glycyrrhiza Glabra) helps to brighten skin, lighten hyperpigmentation, and inhibit tyrosinase, reducing unwanted dark spots. Silica powder is a natural thickener that absorbs excess oil for a balanced, shine-free complexion. With its unique blend of clarifying, healing, and skin-nourishing ingredients, the Sulfur Clearing Serum is an essential step in achieving clearer, healthier skin. Whether used daily or as needed, it helps prevent breakouts while maintaining hydration and skin comfort.
Method of Application Apply serum to skin after cleansing/toning and before other products in your routine. This is a water-based serum, so it would go underneath any oils or creams. For best results use 2x per day.
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 product has become my holy grail. My skincare routine is made easy with this product, applied daily and at night. It doesn't dry out my skin and keeps my makeup on all day. I started using it to help heal my cystic acne, and after using it continuously for a year, my acne scars and skin tone are balanced and clear. I occasionally get pimples, but they don't last half as long when I use this product. Thank you for making a natural, clean product that works and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
What an awesome review!! Thank you so much for sharing how you are able to use it under makeup too! We really appreciate you!

Miracle Product!
I’ve been using GOW’s Sulfur Clearing Serum for a few months now and I absolutely love it! It’s effective, but not harsh or drying on my sensitive skin. I’ll never go without it again!
Thank you, Amy! You really write such nice reviews and we all appreciate your honesty as well. ;-)

Amazing product
Can't live without this one, been using for years. I mix 1-2 drops with a GoW HA serum to keep it from being too drying and it keeps clogged pores at bay. Also works wonders for bigger breakouts. I can always tell if I've skipped it for several days because my skin texture will get less smooth. Love this - please never stop making it!!
So happy you are still loving this product! :) Thank you for the updated review!

Incredible
I've been using this for years. Clears tiny bumps, big pimples, the works. It can be a little drying, so I mostly use it sparingly, but I really can't live without it. Thanks for another winner GOW!!
Love this! Works for my skin & allergic reactions! 😊
Yayyyyy, thank you for sharing this!
Not having any allergic reactions to a product is such a blessing.
Let us know how things go after a couple of months.
I find this product to be very beneficial for my aging skin as well.

I finally got around to using this. I decided that it did not meld well with the collective butters and oils I used. I ended up adding rose and mimosa wax to cover it up!
Rae Lynn,
We are sorry this happened. • ᴖ •
The name is deceiving. Although it is genuinely from the carnation flower, it doesn't
smell like a carnation. It has lovely properties, though.
We do hope the final formula has worked for you.
Your team from GoW.
I got this to harden a lotion bar recipe. It did the trick. I may have used a bit too much, though! I think I will back off to 1 oz next time.
Hi Rae Lynn
Good for you! I can't even share the length of time it took to create skin care products, or how hard those waxes were to work with. They still are at times.
Please keep in touch if you have any questions.
We are always here to help.

I finally got around to using this. It smells good.

This cream is so healing to my skin. I have a sensitivity to citrus products and get a terrible rash and my face will itch. This is the only product that calms my skin.I apply this and within a few hours the rash has diminished and the itchiness is gone. The Calendula Blossom Cream has saved my skin.

Magic in a bottle!
This product has become a required staple in my skincare routine. I use it everyday on my very sensitive skin that is prone to redness and dryness. Not only is it extremely calming and soothing, but it also makes my skin look more plump and moisturized. I never want to be without this product; it has shot to the top of my "best skincare products of all time" list, next to the gentle cleansing gel. I highly recommend trying this if you have sensitive or aging skin that needs a boost of rejuvenation.

Great to have on hand if you use a lot of actives!
Sometimes, you just need a great soothing moisturizer, and this one is my new favorite! I recently graduated from using retinol to tretinoin and whoaaaaa boy. All my other creams had actives that were only making the tret burn worse. This was perfect for helping soothe my skin, and now I use it to buffer the tret!

Calming and refreshing
Calming and refreshing. I love spritzing this hydrosol after my cleansing routine or midday. My skin loves both this and the rose hydrosol. The scents are also very lovely.

I adore a good lavender scented product! A natural botanical even more! I use this spritzer as a bottom layer to smooth and evenly distribute some of my other outstanding GOW products. It’s a great starter and makes me smile in the mornings.
