description

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is indicated to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes and congestion. A high 10% concentration of this vitamin alongside zinc salt of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid has been shown to significantly reinforce skin barrier function, improve skin smoothness, and increase skin radiance over time. Contraindications: If topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid and/or Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) is used as part of skincare, it should be applied at alternate times with this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). Otherwise, Niacinamide can affect integrity of the Vitamin C.

ingredients

Aqua (Water), Niacinamide, Pentylene Glycol, Zinc Pca, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Tamarindus Indica Seed Gum, Xanthan Gum, Isoceteth-20, Ethoxydiglycol, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin.

    I do not struggle with acne, but looked into niacinamide because of its “benefits” on large pores, fine lines, and controlling oil. My low lippie rating is based solely on those areas because I...

    I’ve been using this for over 2 months now, and it works quite well for me. It only helps to reduce sebum a little bit but it really does help with fading left over hyperpigmentation (which is my...

    I'll start with the pros. It works well with the ascorbyl glucoside to remove *recent* acne scars or PIH. It reduces redness too. It doesn't really work by itself for me, it caused some cystic...

    This is my second tube of this stuff. I like it. I use it to prevent/ reduce acne. In my mind zinc is for acne prevention and it appear to do that well. It's pretty affordable as well.

    Used this for a while and it caused whiteheads on my chin and seemed to make my skin worse. I loved the immediate gooey-dewy look that it gave my skin, but that would dry out pretty quickly. Also,...

    A very intresting product. When I started using it, I found a bit of shining on the skin, it was because of the product's stickiness. I actually kinda liked it. But upon regular application, it...

    Very value for money. Although it is cheaper than Paula’s choice, it complements it as another skin rescue potion.
