As someone with PCOS and insanely sensitive skin, when the occasional breakout arrives, it arrives hormonal, angry and ready to stay (shout out to my decade old acne scars). So when our founder Angela asked me to try a new serum that she had worked up, which could clear up pimples AND acne scars, I couldn’t have said yes faster.

Something you should know about me is that I am extremely passionate about nontoxic skincare. I am very particular about every product I use, both for my sensitive skin and for my health. The ingredients in Savor Beauty’s products are truly the cleanest on the market, and are precisely what drew me to the company in the first place. (I am still in awe of how innovative, clean, and effective their products are!)

About Blue Tansy 2% Bakuchiol Serum

This new mystery serum which I was about to try was Savor Beauty's Blue Tansy 2% Bakuchiol Serum.


The Blue Tansy Serum is available in two targeted formulas. The first formula, HEAL, is made for oily/sensitive skin and the second formula, REGENERATE, is made for normal/dry skin. Both of these formulas contain the same superpower duo of 2% Bakuchiol (a natural retinol alternative) and Blue Tansy Extract (a calming, redness reducing plant extract), however, they are each tailored slightly for a customizable fit depending on your skin type.


REGENERATE helps reduce fine lines, and brighten pesky dark spots. HEAL was created with the purpose of melting away stubborn pimples and preventing new ones from appearing.


Since my skin is sensitive and my goal was to help my hormonal breakouts, my Blue Tansy Serum of choice is HEAL.

Blue Tansy Serum Night 1

Since a retinol product with essential oils would normally send me running for the hills due to my sensitive skin, my initial excitement turned into nervousness as I stood in my bathroom about to try the Blue Tansy Serum for the first time. All I could think in my head was "I know it's a natural retinol alternative, but it's still going to hurt and turn me beat red".

Pre- Blue Tansy Serum
Taken on Night 1, right before my first application of the Blue Tansy Serum. My skin is dry, dull, and breaking out.

I added one pump of the serum into my palm, put some on my finger and slowly brought it to my face. I gently dabbed it on the breakout that was brewing on my jawline, and paused, waiting for the stinging to start... But it never did.


I slowly gained more courage, and began applying the dry oil onto the rest of my face. There was no stinging, no redness, and no burning whatsoever. I had two initial impressions -


How the serum felt: Silky and luxurious, gliding over my sensitive skin with no fuss.

How the serum smelled: Floral, sweet, and a bit tart/almost fruity.


I was shocked at how my skin was reacting, or how it wasn't reacting. I waited for the Blue Tansy Serum to sink in a bit and dry (about 5 minutes). After the serum was done melting into my skin, I happily applied my Truffle Face Cream and headed to bed.

Less Than 48 Hours Later...

The morning after my 2nd use, I walked into my bathroom, turned on my lights and was immediately shocked. It hadn't even been a full 48 hours (~36) since I first tried the Blue Tansy Serum, and the difference was extremely noticeable.

Blue Tansy Serum Day 2
Morning after my second application of Blue Tansy Serum.

My skin was visibly brighter, more hydrated, and my hormonal breakout (which would have normally take 1-2 weeks to go away) was almost completely out of sight. Plus some of my pesky scars that had been there for a decade, were much less visible than they were just 2 days earlier.


I have never had a product work so well and effectively for my skin, let alone so quickly! All I could think was "wow, if my skin looks like this now, what will it look like in another week or two?" I couldn't wait to share the results with Angela and the rest of the team, it was clear we had something extremely special on our hands.

"Within one day of using Savor Beauty's Blue Tansy Serum, I was completely blown away. I saw results overnight..."

2 Weeks of Using Blue Tansy Serum

By week 2 of using the Blue Tansy Serum (3 nights a week), my skin was more nourished than it has ever been. It was glowy and clearly healthier than it was just a short 2 weeks earlier. I am so excited that this new staple has finally launched, and I am thrilled for all of my fellow PCOS/hormonal acne havers who will finally have something reliable to heal their skin, with ingredients that won't further disrupt their endocrine system.


I'm thrilled to spread the word about this amazing product, and trust me, if I am going to share embarrassing close up pictures of my pimples, it's for good reason. I can't say enough good things about it, the Blue Tansy Serum is my new holy grail.


If you're looking for a nontoxic spot treatment, or all over facial oil that can quickly and effectively assist in healing your skin, Savor Beauty's Blue Tansy Serum is your match.

Curious about what makes this Blue Tansy Serum so much more effective than others?

The reason this formula is so effective is thanks to it's mixture of Blue Tansy AND Bakuchiol.


Bokuchiol, is a powerful natural retinol that you may recognize by name, however most products on the market only contain 0.5% of Bakuchiol, making them less effective. Savor Beauty's Blue Tansy Serum contains 2% Bakuchiol. The larger percentage of this high quality, natural retinol is why you'll see results so quickly.


Add in the Blue Tansy, and the serum becomes truly magical. Blue Tansy soothes and moisturizes the skin, calming redness and inflammation. This ensures that the natural retinol is safe and gentle for sensitive skin (like mine)! Plus, Blue Tansy smells amazing.
