PURITO Centella Unscented Serum for Sensitive Skin – Lightweight Calming & Skin Barrier Repair, 34,860 ppm Soothing Serum, Vegan & Cruelty-Free, Korean Skincare, 2 fl.oz / 60ml

Pros: Lightweight, fast-absorbing texture Unscented and gentle for sensitive skin Helps calm redness and irritation Provides balanced hydration without heaviness Preps skin well before makeup Cons: May feel too light for very dry skin on its own Overall: The lightweight texture absorbs quickly and helps smooth the skin. Because it’s unscented, it doesn’t irritate my skin, and with regular use I’ve noticed less redness and overall better skin comfort. It layers well under moisturizer and sunscreen and never pills.

I’ve been using the PURITO Centella Unscented Serum for a few weeks, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite “skin reset” products. Whenever my face feels irritated, dry, or a little overworked from stronger treatments, this serum steps in and calms everything down. The texture is lightweight and slightly gel-like. It spreads easily, absorbs quickly, and leaves a soft, hydrated feel without any greasiness or heavy residue. I especially appreciate that it’s completely fragrance-free, which is ideal for sensitive or reactive skin. The formula is packed with Centella Asiatica extract, niacinamide, ceramide NP, and panthenol—ingredients that really help with redness, barrier repair, and maintaining healthy hydration. After consistent use, I noticed my skin tone looked more even and my complexion just felt more resilient overall. It layers beautifully with other products—no pilling under moisturizer or sunscreen—and works both morning and night. On days when I overdo it with exfoliants or retinoids, this is the product that helps calm things down fast. If I had to give one small note, it’s that very dry skin types might want to pair this with a thicker moisturizer because the hydration it gives is more lightweight. But for combination, oily, or sensitive skin, this serum is a winner. Overall, it’s a simple, soothing serum that delivers on what it promises: calm, hydrated, and happy skin.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This has been an outstanding and effective addition to my overhauled skincare protocol. My face started getting really red at some point last year. I don’t know when it started happening but my cheeks seemed to be getting more red with each passing month since at least November of 2024. I didn’t know if I had rosacea, lupus, or just compromised skin barrier. I figured the easiest place to start was focusing on barrier repair, which, despite years of what I’d call “amateur dermatology,” I had never done anything specifically to address skin barrier. I started with The Ordinary’s Azaleic acid, soothing barrier repair serum, Thayer’s witch hazel toner, Detmalogica’s repair cream, and Sunday Riley’s vitamin C serum. I also switched to a cleansing balm and The Ordinary’s glycolic cleanser. I didn’t notice much of a difference with the redness but my skin texture was much smoother and softer. I was going to try Dr. Jart’s cica repair but the reviews were spotty and the formulas might have changed. I read about Purito in a skincare subreddit and decided to try it. Once I switched from TO’s barrier repair serum, the Purito product started producing noticeable results in two weeks. I’ve been using it for about a month and the redness has reduced by about 75%. Lately I mix it with hyaluronic acid as my first product layer twice a day. Once the redness started fading, I transitioned to other products - mandelic acid peels from Makeup Artist’s Choice, TO’s 9% mandelic acid serum and their GF 15%. I discontinued the Dermalogica moisturizer because it’s so expensive, although it was worth it for short-term use just for moisture and skin texture. I switched over to TO’s hydration factors moisturizer and plan to try their vitamin c serum with vitamin f after I finish the Sunday Riley c serum - both have the ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate as the form of vitamin c which is not a common find but works well and is very gentle. I’ve repurchased the Purito serum to continue working on the redness and also picked up one of their centella moisturizers and their bb cream. I’m really surprised by how much of a difference this one serum made. Also, I haven’t had any trouble with pilling despite the many layers of product I am using every day. Again, this product is affordable, high quality, and highly effective for handing skin barrier and reducing redness.

Lightweight, soothing serum that absorbs quickly and helps calm redness and irritation. It feels gentle on the skin and adds a nice boost of hydration without being sticky. Great for sensitive or acne-prone skin, though results are more subtle than dramatic.

Super calming and refreshing serum! I got it in order to help calm some of my post-inflammation erythema, and while I haven't used it long enough to see those results specifically, the immediate benefits are also great: calm, hydrated skin. Highly recommend!

Great serum, barrier repair, feels great, has great ingredients but also simple. Hydrates the skin well for oily skin, also fragrance free. I’m on my 4Th bottle. Only thing is I wish this was fungle acne safe so I can use it everyday.

I wanted to like this, and used it for about 2 months. I found this recommendation from Natalie O’Neill on TikTok. She uses this as a barrier serum. This destroyed my face, it clogged my pores and caused cystic acne for me. I think it’s a decent product but doesn’t necessarily work for all sensitive skin types.

I am 68 so I have wrinkles, dry patches, rosacea, and other issues. My skin is very sensitive. This is a really nice, lightweight serum that has helped with the appearance of my lines and wrinkles and the dryness, and it does not irritate my rosacea. I really love it. I bought the unscented.

Von Centella habe ich vorher noch nie gehört. Centella asiatica ist auch aus der Traditionellen Chinesischen Medizin und der ayurvedischen Lehre bekannt und auch als Beauty-Wirkstoff unverzichtbar! Der Ursprung des Heilkrautes, auch als Tiger Gras bekannt, liegt in der Annahme, dass Tiger sich ihre Wunden an den Pflanzen rieben, damit diese besser heilen. Die hautberuhigende, wundheilende Wirkung ist dafür verantwortlich, die – vom Mythos zur Wissenschaft – mittlerweile wissenschaftlich belegt ist. Quelle:hse.de Das Serum läst sich ganz toll verteilen und zieht schnell in die Haut ein. Der Geruch ist sehr angenehm. Überhaupt nicht aufdringlich. Es beruhigt die Haut und lindert Rötungen. Ich fühle mich nach der Anwendung gut gepflegt. Das Serum ist sehr ergiebig, womit man auch den Preis rechtfertigen kann. Alles in allem macht das Serum einen sehr hochwertigen Eindruck. Ich bin auf die weiteren Ergebnisse gespannt. Ich spreche auf jeden Fall eine klare Kaufempfehlung aus.

Mon serum fav, depuis 5 ans Je l’utilise 2 fois par jour, matin et soir Il n’irrite pas et protège ma barriére cutané

Leggera ed idratante, assorbe subito. Adatta anche a pelle ipersensibile come la mia

The texture and ingredients are very similar to the toner in the same line，it's thicker than watery. It does reduce skin redness.

the best serum!! so hydrating and calms my skin well, great for acne prone skin and calming redness!!
