Silk Naturals

I really love this serum! My skin's as reluctant as I was to give up being a teenager but I've noticed such a difference after just 3 days, I've not been wearing much makeup, so I ca't really comment on whether it made any difference to that, but my face has just been slightly dewy rather than the usual gross oiliness, and my pores must be half the size. I also used the oatmeal serum overnight a few days ago and wow! My skin was so soft and even toned! I'm just using it on the not so oily bottom bits of my cheeks now, just in case it makes me break out (almost anything will!!), but it made a lovely treat.

It's taken over a week of twice-daily use but I think I'm finally enjoying less oily skin! HOORAH! I haven't had to blot all day so far and that's amazing for me. On average, I usually blot once after the first 3 hours in the day, and once every two hours from then onwards. Also, no breakouts! *does the can can*

This is a miracle for anyone as copiously oily as I am. Thank you SO much Karen...

I'm holding my breath right now to see if the effects will last with continuous use for at least a month before I start screaming about this miracle product to the four winds!

Please, please sell this, Karen! But I vote for the option of a bottle that's larger than the sample size for me as I have to use it all over. And I noticed results when I was less sparing with the serum.

Oh yes I don't smell anything fishy (thank goodness, that always makes me gag). But it does have a scent not unlike Olive Oil to me.

Karen, will you be posting more Oil Control Serum in the Gumball section?

I have very oily skin. I've been using the oil control serum for a week now and i've noticed slightly less oily skin for a few hours, but by the end of the day my skin is still extremely oily. I'll keep using it since it helps, but I haven't noticed a big difference .

The last few days my skin seems to seem more oily about half an hour after washing, but then I blot, do my makeup and its fine for the rest of the day. Really hydrated and not really oily at all! I've been using the BHA and pore rifining toners, could it be anything to do with them?

Will this serum come back for good? It really works on my oil T-Zone without drying it out and a little goes a long way.

However it would be nice if they are bottled in 2 sizes. Maybe 30ml and 60ml? I rather purchase it frequently than to have something sit on the shelf for ages before making another order. Thanks for offering such a wonderful product!

One more vote for this one. I've only been using it twice in the mornings, but I can tell a bit of difference already. I don't have to blot for longer than usual. Today, I walked to work and it was already 75 outside, and even though I was a tiny bit sweaty, no extra oil on my face Kudos!

Oh no... after 2 weeks of use, I'm suspecting this serum of causing clogged pores. I haven't changed anything else in my routine!

But I will take a break for my skin to get back to normal and give it another go. I really want this to work out as it was starting to make such a difference!

A theory- and it's a theory...when my nose used to get oily it would really pool at the surface, and the pores didn't get really cloggy looking- just oily. Maybe as your skin has stopped producing so much oil that it isn't forcing its way to the surface as easily (like bad water pressure), and it's just kind of sitting in there???? It could just be that it's clogging, but when something clogs me I can tell in a day or 2- it's instant blackheads.

There's a couple of things you can try...a little BHA or an aspirin mask, or adding a little oil to your routine so that your pores stop producing as much oil or the Pore Refining Toner. PRT would probably be my first choice.
