Overall Impression/Review:
This serum is highly concentrated and made with 15% niacinamide. I’m surprised that it contains a high percentage of niacinamide and to be honest I’m afraid to use it because my skin is so sensitive nowadays. It also contains N-Acetylglucosamine (NAG) which maintains hydration and works in synergy with niacinamide to more effectively fade hyperpigmentation. Zinc PCA that reduces excess sebum and balances oily skin. Allantoin which promotes collagen synthesis to facilitate regeneration.
I include this product in my day time skin care routine after taking a bath. It has a lightweight texture and easily absorbed by the skin. It has natural dewy finish and did not cause dryness.
unfortunately, it didn't work out for me, I had 3 pimples in my forehead and 2 pimples near my cheeks and nose. I believe this could work on people with oily skin than dry skin. Another cons is PAO, which is 2 months so I think it is best to store it in the refrigerator.
