"Just got Bedrock Balm and Porefector a week or so ago and love them. I put the Balm on my forehead for bumps (I think irritation from hair products) and on red spots on chin.
I use Porefector on nose, side of nose and center of chin for large pores. I just put a thin layer of both products and leave it on overnight. Am I supposed to be massaging it in?
Also, I don’t have horrible skin but my skin looks so perfectly uniform in color when I wake that I don’t want to stop using every day. Is there any harm in using it every day, and over such a wide area of my face that I do? I’m thinking not but I want to be sure. Thanks to you for creating this amazing product and to Jaime French for introducing me to you!" - Amy
We replied to Amy and let her know that Bedrock skin barrier skincare is natural, non-toxic, cruelty-free and great to use every day and over large areas of the skin. Of course, if she has any concerns, she should bring our ingredient list to her doctor.
For best results, we recommend you apply Bedrock Balm or Porefector into the skin directly.

Q: What does Porefector do?
A: Pore care. Customers use Porefector for calming acne, clarifying clogged pores, absorbing oils, mattifying shine, evening skin tone and drying out blemishes. It's the ultimate multitasking spot cream for a glowing complexion.
Q: Will it dry out my skin?
A: Nope! Porefector helps rebalance skin so it feels hydrated, not stripped.
Q: How can zinc oxide help my acne?
A: Zinc oxide isn’t just a sunscreen ingredient. Studies show it has antimicrobial power against acne-causing bacteria, helps calm inflammation, and even reduces excess oil. Researchers have found zinc oxide can target C. acnes (the bacteria behind breakouts) while soothing redness and supporting skin repair. In plain English? It keeps skin clearer, calmer, and balanced—without harsh chemicals.
