Is it normal for the serum to sting / burn?Updated 3 months ago

If your skin is inflamed, you might experience a stinging sensation from the sea salt and tea tree essential oil. 

This is normal. 

Fortunately, the aloe and other soothing ingredients will usually calm any discomfort within a minute or two. The stinging will become less common as your skin recovers with each use. 

If your skin is extra sensitive and the stinging feels unbearable, you can dilute the serum by 50% with purified water. The serum is our strongest formula, so there are many folks in the Dermazen community who have seen great results with a diluted serum.
