Shop The Ordinary’s Balancing & Clarifying Serum for clearer skin. This serum reduces the appearance of pores and controls excess oil, making it ideal for blemish-prone skin. With seven key benefits, it’s suitable for all skin types, especially oily and combination skin.
Balancing & Clarifying Serum provides visibly clearer skin, by helping to reduce the look of pores, excess oil, and uneven skin texture. The formulation offers a simple way to treat multiple concerns, offering a total of seven key benefits for blemish-prone and congested skin. While especially suited to oily and combination skin, it is tested and suitable for all skin types.
Balancing & Clarifying Serum minimizes excess shine, and helps reduce the look of enlarged pores, which can be common concerns for oily skin types. It also provides all-day hydration and strengthens the skin barrier to help balance skin’s oil and water content, to avoid drying or stripping the skin.
In addition, Balancing & Clarifying Serum helps to improve uneven skin texture for smoother-looking skin, while promoting skin radiance to make skin look clearer and brighter.
As part of our range of Multi-Active Solutions, Balancing & Clarifying combines seven key technologies to achieve these benefits:
Sarcosine and L-Carnitine: Naturally occurring molecules that reduce the appearance of oiliness and shine.
Polylysine:
A patented molecule that also reduces the appearance of oiliness and shine. It has a unique three-dimensional branched structure that is composed of 48 naturally-derived lysine amino acids.
Adenosine:
Helps reduce the appearance of pores and textured skin.
N-Acetylglucosamine (NAG):
An amino sugar that offers similar exfoliation properties to direct acids. Through this exfoliation, it helps target signs of congestion, while also targeting the look of uneven skin tone.
Ectoin:
Protects the skin barrier against water loss and helps maintain skin hydration. The ingredient ectoin is an amino acid derivative produced via fermentation from ectoine – a naturally occurring molecule found in a wide range of bacteria that live in extreme conditions.
Lactococcus Ferment Lysate:
Works to help support the skin barrier. It is a mixture of fragmented molecules derived from the breakdown of the bacteria lactococcus lactis.
