โ“ Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. This serum is considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It is free from retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, and chemical sunscreens - all ingredients typically avoided during pregnancy. Centella Asiatica is generally recognized as safe for topical use during pregnancy and is actually often used to help prevent stretch marks. However, as with any skincare product, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before use.

No, this serum is NOT fungal acne safe. It contains several ingredients that may feed malassezia yeast, including palmitoyl peptides (which have fatty acid bases), Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate, and Polyglyceryl-10 Stearate. If you struggle with fungal acne, consider alternatives like SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule which has a simpler, fungal acne-safe formula.

Yes! This serum is compatible with most active ingredients. In fact, it's excellent for buffering irritation from retinol and tretinoin treatments. Apply after your actives to soothe and hydrate. For vitamin C, you can layer this serum on top. With AHA/BHA, this serum helps calm any potential irritation. PURITO recommends patch testing when using with high-strength actives. Many users specifically purchase this serum to pair with their retinol routine.

This serum is formulated specifically for sensitive and irritated skin, but works well for all skin types. It's excellent for: sensitive/reactive skin, combination skin, oily skin (lightweight formula won't add shine), and normal skin. It's good but may need supplementation for very dry skin (layer a heavier moisturizer on top). Acne-prone skin can benefit, but NOT if you have fungal acne.

You'll notice immediate soothing effects - clinical tests showed a 22% reduction in irritation within 10 seconds of application. For hydration and comfort improvements, expect results within the first week. Visible improvements in skin texture, reduced redness, and more even skin tone typically appear within 2-4 weeks of consistent use. Long-term barrier strengthening and overall skin health improvement develops over 2+ months of regular use.

Apply this serum after cleansing and toning, before moisturizer and sunscreen. The order is: Cleanser โ†’ Toner โ†’ (Actives like Vitamin C or Retinol) โ†’ This Serum โ†’ Moisturizer โ†’ Sunscreen (AM). Apply 2-3 pumps to face and neck, gently patting until absorbed. Can be used both morning and evening. For best results, PURITO recommends pairing with their Wonder Releaf Centella Toner and Cream.

No, this serum is non-comedogenic with a very low comedogenic rating of 1/5. It's oil-free, lightweight, and formulated without pore-clogging ingredients. Many users with acne-prone skin report it doesn't cause breakouts or clog pores. The water-gel texture absorbs quickly without leaving residue. However, everyone's skin is different, so patch testing is always recommended.

The Period After Opening (PAO) is 12 months. Once opened, use within one year for optimal efficacy. The airless pump packaging helps preserve the product by minimizing air exposure and contamination. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The 60ml bottle typically lasts 2-3 months with twice-daily use (2-3 pumps per application).

Its impressive 34,860 ppm Centella concentration with standardized derivatives and CICASOME technology delivers clinically-proven soothing effects within seconds. The thoughtful formulation includes niacinamide, peptides, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid - all working together to calm, hydrate, and strengthen the skin barrier.
