Say goodbye to unnecessary get visible results!
Formula Analysis: Key Assets
Three major active ingredients stand out in this serum:- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) : This key ingredient regulates sebum production, reduces redness, and improves the skin barrier. It also promotes a radiant complexion and reduces the appearance of pores.
- Zinc PCA Zinc has anti-inflammatory and sebum-regulating properties. It limits the proliferation of bacteria involved in acne and soothes skin irritations.
- Tamarind Seed Gum : This plant extract helps to moisturize and soften the skin, counteracting the drying potential of other active ingredients.
Tips and Application Ritual
I recommend applying this serum in the morning and/or evening, on clean, dry skin, before your moisturizer. It is compatible with most moisturizing and soothing skincare products, but I do not recommend using it immediately after applying products with a high concentration of exfoliating acids (AHAs/BHAs) or pure vitamin C, in order to avoid potential irritation.My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion
This serum stands out for its excellent efficacy/tolerance ratio, its light, non-greasy texture, and its fragrance-free formula. A slight tingling sensation may occur on sensitive skin. In conclusion, it is an excellent choice for blemish-prone skin, to be incorporated into a tailored, gradual skincare routine.Informations complémentaires

This serum works well for my oily skin.
However, I expected to see real results on my imperfections.
The price is very reasonable.

All the time in my routine
Very good value for money, always in my routine for its effects.
However, I have the impression that it can «fluff up» when in contact with other products, and I wonder if 5% niacinamide might not be enough.

A real nugget for every acne breakout. Quickly corrects imperfections, tightens pores and evens out skin tone. Very economical, as only a few products are needed.

Good niacinamide serum
Good value for money. I'd prefer a less gel-like texture, which would be a little less fluffy depending on the active ingredients used on top (G&G retinal 0.10% in particular), but as this is a night-time routine, it's fine.

Written review of the BeautyDecoded application -
very well
When I first started using it, I hated it, so I stopped for about 1 year, maybe a little longer. Then, as I now have a relatively fixed routine and always use the same products, I reintroduced it. And I'm glad I did! So, yes, it's not a miracle product for me, but combined with my copper peptide, it's just great! The copper peptide is number 1 for me, but with the niacinamide I've got the perfect combo! And even more so if I use retinol (1%) the night before. My skin thanks me!
Written review of the BeautyDecoded application -
very well
I find this serum very good. I've been using it for years, putting it aside from time to time to try other niacinamide products and then always coming back to it. The niacinamide dosage is quite high, so I understand that it's not for everyone. For me, it's a must-have.

my skin loves it
I have normal to oily skin, prone to imperfections. The Ordinary's niacinamide serum has become a beauty essential. Its price is very affordable and its effectiveness is amazing. My skin is brighter, my pores are tighter, imperfections are less visible and, above all, better moisturized. I always repurchase this product before the previous bottle runs out. It's a real "coup de coeur" and I recommend it to anyone looking for an effective and economical skincare product. At first, I noticed some redness when I first applied it, but this only lasted a minute and quickly disappeared. Today, my skin tolerates it perfectly. It sometimes foams slightly, but not systematically. I apply it morning and evening, or sometimes only in the morning if I use an acid in the evening. it's not a miracle product, but it's very important in my routine.

I've been using it for a few months now and I've noticed a very big difference in the way my pimples disappear. Personally, I avoid putting it on my nose in the morning because the serum opens up the pores and ejects the sebum.

It has significantly improved my combination, mature and atopic skin. I use it on the T-zone and the imperfections have greatly diminished, the skin is smoother. .

Moderately convinced by this serum. I don't know exactly how to incorporate it into my routine. Not mattifying enough, no anti-blackhead scrubbing effect, no moisturizing agent. Just Niacinamide and zinc. I'd have to add other products. I'm halfway through the product, but I'm thinking of finishing it off on the décolleté and turning to a more «complete» product. 2nd time I've tested a product from this brand, 2nd time I've been disappointed.
