Calming Force Clear Skin Serum

LOVE this serum! keeps my KP at bay and helps to calm cystic breakouts. doesn't make my skin oily and plays nicely with my moisturizer. will refill this one!

My skin can’t tolerate a lot of products sadly, but I have had really good luck with this serum. I started with the trial size and now I’m using the full size. It is very hydrating and soothing. It’s helps calm skin irritation and redness and has really helped me to manage my mild acne and the inflammation that comes along with it. I love the consistency and how easily it spreads on top of a face mist. I use a rosewater face mist from Cocokind that pairs really well with it. I use the Precious Oils Active Infusion (also LOVE) on top, and my skin always looks and feels so nice afterwards. I am super grateful for such a wonderful product from a company I feel great supporting.

Calming Force is one of my favorites! I use this more often during the days of the month when my skin is extra sensitive, and I can tell an improvement since I started using it. I love how it calms my redness. It’s amazing!

Calming Force Clear Skin Serum refill

I have sensitive skin and it DID NOT like this product. I always introduce new products very slowly (about a 3 week process) and within a week of introduction, my skin started breaking out. The product felt heavy and a bit greasy. I so wish I would have had a different experience because I love what the company stands for, but this just did not work for me. I’ve now got a nearly full bottle of product I can’t use.

I gave been using the Activist skincare products for over a year. I originally bought them to reduce the plastics I put into the environment, but have also found they are amazing for my skin. I have suffered what I thought was hormonal acne for 30 years. With the oil based cleanser and moisturizer, my skin completely cleared up in 2 months and has stayed that way. Plus I use less product than my previous regime, so I actually spend less money. Big win for the environment and me!

Allison helped me with my order and was very kind, thank you!

I ordered a trial set and really liked this serum to help my occasional breakouts and redness. It feels so clean and my skin feels soft after as well. I really recommend this company for their products and environmental policy!

Thank you for developing this product. My sensitive skin has always been a struggle. Now in my mid-40’s - 4 years from 50 - I needed something that would preserve what is left of my youth. I use Activist Botanical Cleansing Oil, Active Hydration Vitamin C+ Antioxidant Serum, Calming Force Clear Skin Serum, and Precious Oils Active Infusion. The travel kit is convenient and last a long time. It takes just a little of each. I highly recommend.

I buy and use almost every product Activist Skincare provides. That said, I've used this Calming Force Serum for over a year now and my skin has only gotten better. Any irritation or blemishes are gone within hours to a day. If you haven't tried their products, you're missing out!

Calming Force Clear Skin Serum

I love it. My esthetician loves it. It's just great!

I love everything about these…quality, scent, improvement in my skin condition, reduction in plastic waste!

I initially made the switch to Activist for their sustainability measures - I love that they sell refill packs for their refillable bottles - but honestly everyone tells me my skin is glowing. I get more compliments on my skin now than I have my entire life, huge win! I feel great supporting the brand and being conscious about my purchasing power, and having products that work so well (and they all feel and smell super luxurious too) makes it that much better.

I have developed a lot of dark spots as I’ve aged, and this serum has been a lifesaver. I’ve used for a little over a month now, and my dark spots have actually began to fade and my complexion is clear. And, of course, the packaging and eco-friendly refills are an extra bonus on top of the incredibly effective formulation. Love Activist, and love this serum!

Works well for my acne without being super drying. Nice and light on my skin and goes well under other products.

I added this into my Activist skincare routine at night. It really calms redness, and I wake up with my skin feeling hydrated and smooth!

Makes such a difference in my skin! I have hormonal acne and can get clogged pores and this definitely helps reduce outbreaks and speeds healing

will buy this on repeat! love how this works with my skin, really helps with texture and calming things down. also love that it's refillable!

I've been looking all over for healthy skincare without all the crap preservatives, dyes, parabens, etc. After trying a few brands, this is the only one that actually works. It cleans without drying, it moisturizes without leaving me feeling greasy. I love every product that Activist has.

I won the sample kit previously in a giveaway and loved it and have since bought the sea to skin cleansing gel and calming force serum! They’re amazing and I’ve seen improvements in my skin already.

I wrote a review last year about how pricey this skincare is. While I do think it is a bit pricey, I think it is more than worth the money. I don't think you need to do the monthly subscription either - the bottles last more than one month! This has done wonders for my skin & I couldn't be happier with my routine now.

It's as simple as that! I'm always searching for effective and clean skin remedies and this is IT.

I have used a similar product from other companies and often found that my skin would react really poorly. I apply this product twice daily and it seems like I went through a “purge” without suffering from long term reactions.

Along with dietary changes, this has really helped clear up my hormonal acne after getting off birth control. Works well in my daily routine.

I used the trial kit, most skin care products I have tried have not done anything for me but after using this trial kit I could not WAIT until I could get my hands on more. The packaging it came in is amazing and felt so personal. The sea to skin cleansing gel is my absolute favorite, smells amazing and leaves my skin feeling amazing. All of that while helping the earth with sustainable & reusable products? Would and have recommended!

I started with a trail kit and ended up continuing use of the cleansing balm, calming force and precious oils. All I can say is wow! I am in my mid 30’s, have dry, sensitive skin and these products leave my skin feeling clean and moisturized. I was prone to getting an occasional pimple and I haven’t had any for the three months I have been using Activist products.

I’ve completely switched my whole skincare routine to only Activist Skincare products because they clear my sensitive skin without leaving it dry or irritated!

I am a big fan of this serum. I love it's mix of skin-clearing ingredients, (still dealing with #maskne) and it's antioxidants, as well as how it's sensitive-skin safe. As someone with rosacea and sensitivity, I'm a fan of this product in my minimal skincare arsenal!

Not only did this serum (Calming Force) work for me, which I tried as a sample, but the customer service is top tier. I have sensitive acne prone skin and my mask acne has been a horror story. I've tried a few different products for it but this one worked the best AND my acne dark spot are noticeably fading, which an Osea essence didn't help with. Almost all the packaging, say for a sticker, is completely recyclable in my city. Both times I received a package from Activist there was a hand written note and honestly I'm all for that company consumer connection.

I’ve been using my full-sized Activist products for about a month now (after using the sample kit for a few weeks), and I’m in love with the entire routine. I alternate between the two serums, using the Calming Force at night to keep my breakouts in check. It does a wonderful job, and my skin has been very consistent since beginning the Activist routine, with very few breakouts (about the same as with my previous routine) that go away even faster than before.
