This facial serum has completely healed and cured my skin! Around 2018 I began to develop perioral dermatitis/fungal acne/Malassezia folliculitis. Out of the blue, the oils/moisturizers/sunscreens/facial cleansers I had been using and loving no longer worked. It seemed that everything I was using fed or aggravated my skin. I tried product after product looking for something fungal safe but nothing worked. So I went for years with dry, dull, tight, flaky, red and uncomfortable skin, especially in the winter. One day, doing another internet search for a moisturizer on Reddit I saw that someone mentioned Garden of Wisdom, praising their clean products and small sample sizes. I went there immediately and set up an appointment for a skin analysis. A few products were recommended to me and I've been using them now for 9 months. The product that made the biggest change in the shortest time was the Oat Enriched Serum. First of all, I have to say, this product is amazing at healing and nourishing the skin, BUT it does not feel like a normal serum or moisturizer and you might initially feel like it isn't moisturizing or doing the job. You might even feel like it is just sitting on the top of your skin. But give it a week or so and you will find that it heals and nourishes deeply. I am telling you, within a week or two, all my redness, dullness, irritation, bumps, tiny whiteheads, flakiness were GONE! My skin glows! In fact I went back to school to become an aesthetician at age 51 and all the young girls were always telling me how beautiful and soft and glowy my skin is! This after years of struggling. I have three daughters who now use this product and they too were initially put off because it doesn't feel like your typical moisturizer or serum, but with a bit of time they have come to love it too. It's crazy how many toxic ingredients are in so much of the skincare we use. Turns out a lot of those ingredients were in the so-called safe products I was using to try to heal all my skin issues. The combination of cutting those ingredients out and finding a clean serum to nourish my skin has made a world of difference! I LOVE GofW and am so grateful to them for making affordable, clean products! Buy this product, give it a few weeks, I think you'll love it too!

This serum has helped sooth my red skin from overusing harsher products such as retinol. I use it with Ceramide Hydrating Complex Serum and I'm loving the effects.

Oat Enriched Facial Serum is a staple product for me as it soothes and heals ANY type of inflammation that arises.

After much research and deliberation, I decided to try using it on my lichen sclerosus. I was astonished to discover that on first application, it was immediately effective at reducing itching, swelling and redness. Over the course of a few weeks I found that I was no longer plagued by those symptoms, and the scabbing that occurs had healed and completely disappeared. If you have lichen sclerosus, then you know that this condition is notorious for being unresponsive to treatment. I saw a dermatologist, an endocrinologist and my PCP. Clobetasol was prescribed which I never used as I consider steroids to be no bueno. I've tried an elimination diet, intermittent fasting, keto, supplements, pre- and probiotics, anti-stress everything and a vast array of topicals. Aloe vera, manuka honey, hydrosols, anti-inflammatory essential oils and carrier oils, and on and on to no avail. I can't tell you how thrilled I am to have finally found something that works, and I hope that my review will encourage others who have lichen sclerosus to give this a try.

I have recently also incorporated Calm and Hydrate Mist as my first treatment step, and then I add a drop or two of Calming Moisture Serum to a pea-sized amount of Oat Enriched Facial Serum and apply that over the mist. I do this twice a day.

I can't thank you enough, GoW!

I have recommended this serum countless times in all my PD and Rosacea group forums (and no I don't get any perks for doing so). Its just that good and soothing. Im using it now to treat some lingering PD and it soothes all day long~

First time ordering thru GoW and I'm so happy that I did. I got the .25oz and you get a lot of uses out of that little bottle. I first used after a chemical peel and my skin felt so soothed. I also use whenever my skin gets irritated and a little goes a long way. This also helped with my son's sunburn. Will be re-ordering a larger size so I can have on hand.
