Troubleshooting common serum issues
New clogged pores or breakouts: simplify your routine, reduce heavy layers like oils and thick creams, and consider using your richer products only on the driest areas; if breakouts continue, get professional advice before adding exfoliating acids or more actives.

Troubleshooting common serum problems
New breakouts after starting a serum: Stop any obviously pore‑clogging products such as heavy oils or thick makeup. If the new bumps keep appearing for more than a few weeks or show up in areas where you do not usually break out, scale back the new serum or stop it and check in with a dermatologist, especially if the acne is painful.
