Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

product review positives

I love Niacinamide so much that when I saw this I didn’t think twice. Love thr brightening and pore reducing/care of this ingredient. It’s so affordable and very available especially online.

product review negatives

📢 If you've never used Niacinamide before, this is 10% and quite high for beginners, it can irritate and break you out. It contains zinc so it might irritate some people too.

°° Texture and Application °° It's a clear, water based serum that's very slightly viscous. Feels light on the skin and spreads nicely. It often leaves my skin feeling a bit sticky and sometime it pills, so I try to avoid that by gently patting...

product review negatives

×CONS× • It will often pill or foam. • I didn't notice any brightening effect and it didn't do much for my pores.
