Product Overview
Normalizing Lipid & Sebum Care is MBR's serum for skin that runs oily or congested. Applied to prepared skin before cream, it helps bring shine back into balance and leaves the surface looking clearer and more matte through the day.
The official formula highlights Panthenol, Inositol and MultiEx BSASM. Together these components support the product's role in the routine while keeping skin calm and comfortably moisturised rather than stripped.
Recommended For
Recommended for oily and combination skin, for a shiny T-zone, and for blemish-prone skin that still needs moisture. It also suits skin that has become oily and tight at the same time after using harsh cleansers.
Texture and Experience
A thin, water-light serum with a herbal base note and no added fragrance. It absorbs instantly and leaves a fresh, matte finish with nothing left on the surface.
Key Ingredients
- Panthenol (Dexpanthenol): Calms, softens the look of lines and supports the skin's moisture retention.
- Inositol: Moisturises intensely and helps skin look and feel more elastic.
- MultiEx BSASM: A multi-herbal extract of seven roots and leaves, valued for its calming, soothing and antioxidant qualities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it make my skin dry?
It is designed not to. The formula balances oil while glycerin, hyaluronic acid and panthenol keep the skin comfortable. Follow with a light moisturiser rather than skipping cream.
Can I use it only on my T-zone?
Yes. Combination skin often does best with the serum on the forehead, nose and chin and a richer treatment elsewhere.
Which moisturiser should I use over it?
Something light. The Gentle Moisturizing Gel is the natural companion for oily and combination skin.
Is it suitable for blemish-prone skin?
Yes, it is formulated for skin that looks congested and shiny, and the herbal extracts keep it calm. It is cosmetic care rather than a medicated product.
Morning, evening or both?
Both, after cleansing and toning. Many people find the morning application makes the biggest difference to shine.
