In my 70yrs still having breakouts, trying EVERYTHING!!! Prescription and over the counter. This is the 1st product I’ve ever used, that really works!! Will definitely reorder and recommend!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with this! Since I just turned 70 myself I know how frustrating our skin can behave. I am (we are) truly excited for your skin and your heart. ;-) Your outcome will hopefully help many others with their frustrating skin issues.
Wishing you all the best on your skin's journey to health.

Such a lovely oil!
It glides on so smoothly, feels like a substantial oil without leaving me greasy, and I love that it has a mild color so I can put it on directly. I live in the Southwest so it’s so fun to use the oil from a plant that I see around me all the time! Thank you Garden of Wisdom for being the oasis in the desert and delivering such wonderful products!
Hi Sarah
Thank you for your kind words and support!
I always have a goofy but huge grin when anyone speaks about prickly pear oil. I can't even explain, for me, how proud I am of my skin when someone stops to tell me I am glowing. When does this happen? After I apply my Prickly Pear Seed Oil! It pretty much amazes me.
Wishing you all the happiness your skin can bring to you.

if i could give this serum more than five stars, i would.
i developed rosacea out of nowhere after never really having skin issues before. suddenly my skin was red, bumpy, dry, dehydrated and unbelievably reactive. i tried so many products that were marketed as natural, sensitive-skin friendly or rosacea-safe, and NOTHING worked. every new product seemed to give me a brand-new version of a reaction.
then i had a consultation with jennifer. garden of wisdom offers consultations for new customers, and i cannot recommend doing one enough. jennifer was incredible. she helped me put together a very simple routine using this serum, their soap free cleanser, aloe as a toner and evening primrose oil. she also talked to me about supporting my skin internally, which i really appreciated. it felt like she was looking at the bigger picture instead of just trying to sell me another topical product.
more than that, she was kind, supportive and genuinely gave me hope during a time when i was feeling incredibly discouraged about my skin.
and boy did she deliver.
i used the cleanser and oat enriched facial serum and woke up the NEXT MORNING with skin that felt smooth, calm and unreactive. i genuinely could not believe it.
and it wasn't a fluke. over time, everything improved - the redness, the little bumps and texture, the dryness, the hydration, the flushing, the way my skin responded to heat, and even how quickly it recovered when something did make it reactive. my skin didn't just look better. it started to feel healthier, stronger and more resilient.
the serum itself feels like a pretty normal serum on the skin. i will warn you that it has an interesting smell, but you get over that very quickly once you realize how magical the stuff inside the bottle is. most importantly, it has never - literally NEVER - irritated my skin. no burning, stinging, redness, bumps or mystery reaction of the week.
i've now been using it for almost three months, and the difference in my skin is enormous. instead of constantly reacting to something new, my skin just kept getting healthier.
the craziest part is that at this point, i pretty much forget that i even have rosacea. when i think back to how reactive, uncomfortable and unpredictable my skin felt just a few months ago, i can't believe i'm saying that.
after months of feeling like my own face had suddenly become something i couldn't understand or control, garden of wisdom gave me my skin back.
i never want to be without this serum. ever.
Oh, Karissa, this brought tears to my eyes. Knowing how discouraged and uncomfortable you felt, and then hearing that your skin now feels calm, strong and like your own again, means more to us than I can possibly say.
Jennifer (JenJen as I enjoy calling her) cares about every person she speaks with, and I cannot wait to make sure she sees every beautiful word you wrote about her.
We have always believed that sensitive, reactive skin needs patience, simplicity and thoughtful support, not a dozen new products thrown at it. Hearing how well this little routine has worked for you is absolutely thrilling.
And yes, we must acknowledge the Oat Enriched Serum’s rather “interesting” natural aroma! She may not be the prettiest-smelling girl in the garden, but thankfully, she knows how to do her job. 😂
Thank you for trusting us when your skin had made it difficult to trust anything. Thank you for giving the products time, and especially for sharing your experience so openly. Reviews like this help others who may be feeling just as overwhelmed and hopeless as you once did.
“The product that gave me my skin back” may be the most meaningful thing anyone could ever say about something we created. We are so incredibly happy for you, Karissa, and so grateful that you found us.
With all our gratitude,
Markey, Jen and YoUr Garden of Wisdom family 🌻
i developed rosacea seemingly out of nowhere after having basically no skin issues my entire life. suddenly i had redness, bumps and texture, dryness, a completely compromised skin barrier, and it felt like EVERYTHING i put on my face caused some new version of a reaction. i had already used natural/holistic skincare for years, and even products marketed as "sensitive" or "rosacea-safe" were not working for me.
then i found garden of wisdom.
this cleanser is definitely a different experience from a traditional face wash (read the directions!) but i got used to that almost immediately. and honestly, i would wash my face standing on my head at this point if that's what it took to keep my skin this happy.
my skin has never once reacted to it. it feels completely calm, clean and refreshed afterward, but NEVER stripped or tight, which was especially impressive considering what a disaster my skin barrier was when i started using it.
i began using this cleanser at the same time as the oat enriched facial serum, so i can't honestly tell you which product deserves more credit. what i can say is that my skin changed almost literally overnight. i woke up with smoother, calmer, more hydrated skin, and over the weeks that followed my redness, texture, hydration and overall skin health continued to improve. i kept waiting for the other shoe to drop because it genuinely felt too good to be true. it never did.
i've now been using this for almost three months, and the change is kind of unbelievable. at this point, i pretty much forget that i even have rosacea. considering how much my skin was affecting my day-to-day life when this first started, that feels enormous.
i truly believe that replacing everything that may have been irritating or inciting my skin with something this gentle played a huge role in allowing my skin to calm down and become so much more resilient.
if you wear makeup, i would pair it with garden of wisdom's micellar water, which i also love.
finding a cleanser that thoroughly cleans reactive, rosacea-prone skin without making it even remotely angry should not feel this miraculous, but after everything i tried before this, it absolutely does.

Oh my goodness, what a wonderful review to open up! We are absolutely delighted that the Vita ReSurface left your skin looking so radiant and clear after your very first use. Finding an effective retinol that does not leave your skin feeling punished can be quite a journey, especially when your barrier is already feeling vulnerable. Using your moisturizer as a buffer was a very thoughtful approach.
Knowing that our straightforward ingredient list helped you feel confident enough to try it means so much to us. We are also thrilled that Clear, Brighten & Prevent has earned a place in your routine. And yes, your plea has been officially heard: please never discontinue it! 😂
Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review, especially when you rarely leave them. We truly appreciate you and are so happy you found Garden of Wisdom. 🌻
