It was a nice product for me, better than TO niacinamide 10% + zinc 1%. I find it hydrating, and does not give me breakout or redness. I recommend using it before applying tretinoin for maximum effectiveness and moisturizing power.
It was however a small bottle, meaning I have to replace it once in a while. Product sometimes leak because of the cap so I have to close it tight every application.

I had been using this niacinamide by the inkey list the first day It arrived for me and I really do enjoy this one but I believe that this has helped my skin so much from where it was before I had used this product. Also, this has amazing ingredients such as squalene, glycerin and hyaluronic acid all helping in hydrating the skin, the hyaluronic acid draws in moisture from the surroundings and gets absorbed into the skin. Squalene helping with the hydration aswell as glycerin. This has a nice texture on the skin and helps with oil production and redness within the skin. In this version of the niacinamide by the inkey list it has 10% niacinamide and 1% hyaluronic acid compared to the ordinary which is the same amount of niacinamide but 1% zinc instead. For me i prefer the inkey list one over the ordinary one, as it has that extra boost of hydration to it, and has better overall ingredients than the ordinary one in my opinion.
There wasn't really anything I could criticise about this product....... just was an amazing product

tried The Ordinary's Niacinamide (over hyped product) but it broke me out. I was surprised by the non effectiveness of the product. Parallely I came across The Inkey list and thought to give it a try. Fortunately đ it showed it's wonder on my skin (you may spot the number of bottles of Niacinamideđ)
(May be beacuse inkeylist contains hyaluronic acid which is soothing)
On a serious note, it is really a wonderful product for oily and acne prone skin. It minimises visibility of pores and regulates sebum production. It helps to reduce acnes and works well on active acnes. Furthermore it minimises the chance of occurrence of new acnes as it controls oil production so once you stop using it you will definitely gonna miss this product because acnes may pop out once your skin produces oil. Also, it helps to improve complexion and makes skin more glowy.
Kudos to The Inkey List's Niacinamide đ
As such none, but the size is too small (though okay as compare to price) but they should launch supersize.. and the white chemical sticks to bottle making bottle messy.

Love it! It has helped me to control the oily areas of my face. I normally use it before my acne treatment and the hydrating and soothing ingredients in this serum reduced the irritation a lot.
I have read that higher concentration of niacinamide than 5% are unnecessary. Also 10% can be irritating to some people so be careful.

The niacinamide is very affordable and really inexpensive!
The niacinamide concentration on this product is too high for me :(. It always breaks me out after I use it and at first I thought I was just purgung but I learnt that itâs actually irritation and not purging so itâs really sad that I had to stop using this since I heard so many benefits from niacinamide!

Review timeeeđ
Product name- The inkeylist niacinamide
Texture :
⢠viscous but feels light on skin (dry skin type)
â˘absorbs fast
Main ingredient:
â˘niacinamide 10%
â˘Hyaluronic acid 1%
Claims/targets:
â˘redness
â˘excess oil production
â˘enlarged pores
My opinions: I find this serum very lightweight and can easily be layered with other serums. After using this consistently for 3 months almost i have noticed my skin texture to improve and i would get no breakout or congested pores. It really helped to clear out my pores n control redness. With the addition of 1% Ha gave me extra hydration. Its really hydrating n i love hydrating serums n makes my skin feel toned up n provides a healthy glowđ. It has no adverse effect n its very gentle on my skin . I used this in both of my am n pm routine.
Recommend for - all skin type
Will i buy it again? Yes im almost on the end of the bottle
Self purchased***
Nth was bad about it...but i prefer a dropper which is easy for me to use but i have got adjusted with this opener toođ

I have been using the ordinary niacinamide and when the inkey list I wanted to try it and compare them.
It is very lightweight and my skin absorbs it quickly. After using it for a month I can see that the appearance of my pores has minimized but I did not see any difference in my scars.
This serum did make my skin smooth.
I don't like their packaging. I would have preferred a dropper for easy useage.

Easy to get a pea size amount of the bottle due to consistence of the formula. I tend leave it for five minutes to absorb as it does leave the skin feeling slightly tacky after putting on. Works best if patted onto skin rather than rub i found. Another perk for me is its Super affordable too!
Too strong for my skin to use twice a day! Caused a breakouts on my forehead when using twice a day, due to its niacinamide %! My skin is seeing the beneifts of this product much more just using it in the AM rather than both AM & PM like the bottle advises!!!

Love love niacinamide as an ingredient! I can't live without it - it helps with oil control, strengthening the skin barrier and brightens the overall complexion!
Love that this has squalane to help moisturise and soften the skin. It also has other antioxidants such as radish root ferment filtrate.
Nothing - only the slightly inconvenient packaging

Wow! The inkey list never fails to impress! This gorgeous niacinamide serum is at a good 10% concentration along with other hydrating and nourishing ingredients (glycerin, squalane, hyaluronic acid and more). Really exciting ingredient list for such an affordable price. I will forever love inkey! My sister (more normal/dry skin) really enjoyed this product too. Definitely recommend!
For my oily skin, I was looking for something to control my oil levels rather than nourish or reduce redness etc and I found that the ordinary niacinamide serum did a much better job at that. I know that some people have a bad reaction to this product but that is just what I found works better for me in the am so I don't look like a grease factory. However when my skin is sensitised or dehydrated, I love reaching for this one! I gave this a 5 star review because even though it wasn't what I was looking for in the am, doesn't make it a bad product. If you are looking to start a niacinamide serum, I recommend starting with this one xx
