Krave Great Barrier Relief

Hi all!
Has anyone tried the Krave Beauty Great Barrier Relief serum? I have sensitive, combination, dehydrated, acne-prone skin. Seems like the serum would be good for soothing purposes.

Re: Krave Great Barrier Relief

I know your inquiry is a few months old, but I've been trying Krave's Great Barrier Relief for the past couple weeks and thought I'd drop a note for anyone searching conversations about it.

 

I have a similar skin profile to yours and I've enjoyed using this serum. The consistency is really between a serum and a lightweight moisturizer--nearer the latter. It's unlike any other products I'm using and I've got several dozen on my shelves: from toners to essences, to serums and oils, and everything besides.

 

I look forward to putting it on just before my heavy moisturizer. So far my skin has tolerated it really well. I need all the help I can get with rebuilding my skin barrier (years of neglect) and infusing as much hydration as possible into my routine without clogging pores.

I really love the smell. The tamanu oil is very unique. The best I can describe it is like a bouquet of really fragrant, fresh mushrooms and an earthy, somewhat soil-like, woodsy aroma. It's so gorgeous to me without being overpowering. The smell fades away in short order but I love the sensory application process... very decadent.

You don't need much. A small pump or two feels right on the face and neck. It soaks in rather quickly and leaves my skin feeling refreshed.

 

I've also been using the Matcha Hemp Hydrating Cleanser by Krave and I am in love with that product as well. It's one of the most pleasant, effective, soothing cleansers I've ever used. I think I favor it slightly over Great Barrier Relief in terms of impact to my personal routine.

 

I look forward to trying the rest of the Krave lineup.
