Calm & Clear Serum: It Does It All
Calm and Clear Serum on a misty morning in the forest
When we first began formulating our skincare line, there was one product we knew had to become the heart of it all: a serum that could restore balance, calm sensitivity, and truly transform skin over time. That dream became the Calm & Clear Serum, our #1 bestseller—and the serum that continues to shine as the hero of our collection.
Beloved by so many of you, Calm & Clear Serum has earned its place as a two-time winner of Best Serum at the Beauty Shortlist Awards, and Finalist at the Clean Beauty Awards, standing out for its ability to deliver visible results without ever compromising gentleness.

Why It’s Our Hero
Unlike heavy, oil-dominant serums that sit on the surface, our Calm and Clear Serum begins with an aloe-based formula. This means it absorbs quickly and deeply, carrying with it a wealth of vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds that replenish skin at a cellular level. It’s suitable for every complexion—from the most sensitive skin to those prone to blemishes—making it a universal ally in your daily ritual.
With consistent use, Calm and Clear helps to:
Balance skin tone and texture for a smoother, more radiant complexion.
Soothe redness and irritation—a relief for sensitive or inflamed skin.
Helps prevent breakouts and reduces their duration—leaving skin clear and smooth.
Reduce the appearance of scars and hyperpigmentation, revealing brighter, clearer skin.
Support vibrancy and resilience, giving skin the healthy glow it deserves.

The Plants That Power It
As with all Gatherwise creations, the Calm & Clear Serum is built on the strength of whole plants, hand-harvested at their peak for maximum potency. Some of the key allies in this formula include:
🌿 Tulsi (Holy Basil) – Revered for its calming and anti-inflammatory properties.
🌿 Willow – Encourages cell renewal, leaving skin firm, radiant, and blemish-free.
🌿 Fennel – Soothes irritation and minimizes redness.
🌿 Chamomile & Selfheal – Gentle herbs that quiet reactive skin and support repair.
🌿 Sea Buckthorn & Rosehip – Rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids to brighten and strengthen.
Together, these botanicals create a synergy of nourishment and protection that adapts to what your skin needs most.
