The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

It works, I love it, can't say any negative things! It just works!

This has helped with bumps that I tend to get around the chin and jaw area. I've previously used Paula's Choice's 2 % BHA (both gel and liquid), and while that worked brilliantly in the beginning, the effect wore off a little over time. Nowadays I go back and forth between this and PC's BHA liquid.

I've also seen a slight improvement in the size of my pores. I …Read more

I'm loving this product. Great simple but effective. I'm about to start my 2nd jar of this. I'm finding it's helped in not only keeping breakouts down but also helps improve texture and clarity. Will definitely be repurchasing for a third time.

I use this in the morning, I mix this with moisturizer, and I apply it before my sunscreen, since I’ve started this routine, face hyperpigmentation is going less everyday, it has improved the texture of my skin, will continue using this.

This amazing little product transformed my congested and cystic acne-ridden skin (especially my jawline). It took about 3 weeks to see good results, using it every night. A very simple, gentle and effective formulation - highly recommended.

This did nothing for me. I think it has more to do with my skin not responding to the actives, not the quality of the product.

This serum is great for targeting excess sebum and redness but don't expect too much especially if you're dealing with persistent acne. Your pores will definitely look smaller and it helped a lot with some small bumps I had on my forehead though and prevented breakouts for me.
