It did work!
Early this month I received @origins Clear Improvement: Pore Clearing Moisturizer with Bamboo Charcoal, complimentary from Origins and Influenster. I wanted to use this product for at least 3 weeks to know if it would display results before posting about it. This moisturizer is unlike any, I've use...

I received this as part of Influenster's campaign. I would like to preemptively apologize for my review. Jar packaging isn't optimal for the stability of some of the extracts, but it's not the biggest issue because it does contain the preservative phenoxyethanol. Preservatives can be irritating to s...

I have bought a couple moisturizers from origins over the years and this clear improvement moisturizer is by far the best I have used and it's been 5 days. 5 DAYS and I am already seeing so much improvement in my skin. love love love Cannot recommend this brand enough
Great moisturizer for acne prone skin
I've been using this moisturizer for years and I love it. My skin is combination but it's prone to breakouts so I need a moisturizer thats lightweight and wont cause breakouts. This is the best stuff!!

Hoping to find a moisturizer to replace a longtime favorite oil-free cream that Origins decided to discontinue, this Clear Improvement Pore Clearing Moisturizer sounded promising. Since I had already tried and liked a sample of Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask, I ordered this and was looking forward to its arrival. Much to my disappointment and dismay, this moisturizer is awful. It immediately had a stinging and burning sensation which left my cheeks a deep shade of pink. On top of this negative reaction, the scent smells awful.
won't buy again, pls bring Willowtree back!

I was recommended to this one because my favorite matte moisturize with willowtree essence got discontinued. This one does have some shine control but is not as good as the willowtree one. Furthermore the texture of this moisturizer is weird, like applying some heavy painting on my face.
My holy grail
This, for me, is the best dual action moisturizer I have ever used and. Worth the money and you get a great amount of product. Im super oily and this actually helped me become way less oily and not need to wear foundation. It cleared my skin up, properly moisturized me so I could use daily (can use with makeup) and helps fight my acne with the proper acids and ingredients. Love love love this product
