Hii, could i use this with the cocokind barrier support serum?!
- Asked by Dinosaur
- Official Answer By cocokind - Brand EngageHi! Yes, you can use both serums together although it isn’t necessary. We recommend purchasing the serum that best matches your biggest skin concern - acne or barrier support. If you would like to use both serums at the same time, we recommend applying the acne serum first because it’s lighter than the ceramide serum.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
can i use this with a benzoyl proxide face wash ? can i use this with your cocokind chlorophyll discoloration serum , if so which would be first between the two serums ?
- Asked by jg
- Official Answer By cocokind - Brand EngageHi! For our products that contain active ingredients like the postbiotic acne serum, we always recommend starting off slow and spacing out actives throughout the week! You can even try alternating between the products at first - for example: using the serum at night and the cleanser during the day, or using them on alternating days. Please note using multiple active ingredients at the same time has the potential for irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. Please be sure to let your skin become familiar with a new product before introducing another product with active ingredients. We encourage you to listen to your skin. If you start experiencing irritation, reduce your usage. We also always recommend patch testing our products on a small area of skin to see if our ingredients work for you! You can use our acne serum and chlorophyll serum in the same routine. You can apply them in whatever order you prefer. Our serums are suitable for daily use in the AM and/or PM, or you can use one serum in the AM and the other PM.Was this answer helpful to you

My favorite acne product
I have mainly hormonal acne (I'm 19) so I cannot speak on deep cystic acne. However on my major break outs this clears it within three days. I love the ingrediants. I have really sensitive skin and stuff like elf breaks me out. I'm on my second bottle and have been using this for about three months....

Sad to report, this is my least fav cocokind product
I am a huge cocokind fan, and I struggle immensely with acne from my CAH, so when this dropped I was excited to give it a try!! I patch tested and had zero reaction, and the first time applying, I had no reaction. My skin didn't feel much different after the first application actually. My second tim...

My go to for my stubborn acne
Verified Buyer

This product has been the only stuff to help decrease my acne! This is definitely an essential in my skin care routine. I recommend to give it a try if you have stubborn acne like me.
It's subtle
Like most cocokind products I've tried, it's gentle and subtle. You have to use the product for a while to see results; you won't see results overnight. I think it's helped my skin slowly. I do like how gentle it is and that it didn't worsen any skin issues.

Amazing for Acne & Ingrown Hairs
Verified Buyer
Reviewed at
This is literally my holy grail for serums and has been for years now! I have battled acne ever since I was young, and this is the only product that consistently works at keeping my skin clear. I also use it as a body serum after shaving in areas where I don't want bumps and ingrown hairs, and nothing has ever worked better!! Cocokind please never stop making this product ! :)
Not for me
For me, this product did quite the opposite of what its suppsed to do. I broke out by the next day and it got progressively worse until a few days after I ceased using the product. Tried to stick it out but this product just isn't for my me. For context, I have normal/dry skin. It does seems to work for others especially for those with combo/oily skin. I would just caution anyone to try it when you don't have big plans incase you do have a bad reaction.
