The Ordinary
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
This effective high-strength formula can be applied to your entire face morning and evening before heavier creams.
A serum made for any tiring and ongoing battle with acne and its myriad of side effects, completely oil-, alcohol- and silicone-free.
What’s in it?
↳ Niacinamide (10%): otherwise known as vitamin B3, this ingredient reduces blemishes and works at balancing your skin’s natural levels of sebum. B3 is also known for helping your skin with its texture, defences against external factors (such as pollutants and other skin irritants), and retaining your skin’s moisture.
↳ Zinc (1%): an anti-inflammatory, Zinc is known for its healing properties when it comes to burns, scars and marks. It combats against free radicals (unpaired electrons that are looking for a way to pair themselves up and consequently damage cells, DNA and proteins). As an added bonus, Zinc encourages collagen production, which reduces wrinkles and the signs of ageing.
What does it do?
This serum does its best work with redness, scarring and hyperpigmentation. It can be used in both the mornings and the evenings, and helps with maintaining correct oil levels on the sensitive skin of your face. Additionally, this serum can help with reducing the occurrence of breakouts themselves.
If topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid and/or Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) is part of your skin care routine, avoid using it at the same time as this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). Otherwise, Niacinamide can affect integrity of the Vitamin C.
