Niacinamide 10% Face Serum

Niacinamide 10% Face Serum is the topical form of Vitamin B3, one of the most clinically studied multi-function actives in skincare. At 10%, it works through four pathways at once - it regulates sebum production to reduce oiliness, strengthens the skin barrier by supporting natural ceramide synthesis, blocks melanosome transfer to fade post-acne dark marks (PIH), and calms the inflammation that drives redness. It is well-tolerated by all skin types and pairs safely with virtually every other active.

This serum combines Niacinamide with Zinc PCA for sebum control, Hyaluronic Acid for lightweight hydration, and D-Panthenol for soothing barrier repair. Use it in your morning routine to layer with Vitamin C 10% Face Serum, or at night before the Vitamin B5 10% Moisturizer for a balanced finish. Explore the full face serum range for ingredient-specific options.

Controls Oil and Shine: Regulates sebum production to reduce a greasy T-zone and the appearance of enlarged pores.

Fades Post-Acne Marks: Blocks melanosome transfer to gradually lighten dark spots left behind by old breakouts.

Strengthens the Barrier: Supports natural ceramide synthesis to calm redness and improve overall skin resilience.

This serum suits all skin types, and is especially valuable for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. It is the right pick if you have visible pores, an oily T-zone, dark marks left from old acne, dull or uneven tone, or simply want a universal serum that layers safely with most other actives.

It targets enlarged pores, excess oiliness, post-acne hyperpigmentation (PIH), uneven skin tone, and mild redness. Because Niacinamide works on both sebum regulation and barrier support, it helps balance oily skin while still reinforcing the barrier of drier skin, making it one of the most versatile actives in a long-term routine.

If you are highly sensitive or new to active skincare, start once daily for the first week and build up to twice daily. Patch test first if you have a rare niacin sensitivity, and avoid use over open wounds or severely inflamed breakouts. Suitable from age 16 and up, and generally considered safe during pregnancy or lactation (consult your doctor if unsure). It is free from fragrance, parabens, SLS, and alcohol.

STEP 1

Cleanse the face. Use the Salicylic Acid 2% Gel Cleanser for oily or acne-prone skin, or the Gentle Skin Cleanser for other skin types.

STEP 2

If your skin feels dehydrated, apply the Hyaluronic Acid 2% Face Serum first on slightly damp skin.

STEP 3

Apply 2 to 3 drops of Niacinamide 10% Face Serum to your fingertips and gently press across the face and neck.

STEP 4

Allow 30 seconds for the serum to absorb fully before the next product.

STEP 5

Follow with the Vitamin B5 10% Moisturizer (oily and combination skin) or the Ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer (dry or sensitive skin) to seal in hydration.

STEP 6

In the morning, finish with the SPF 50 Sunscreen. SPF is non-negotiable when using any active serum.

When to Use: Morning and evening, every day.

Tip: Niacinamide is the most layering-friendly active in skincare and pairs safely with Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, Salicylic Acid, and Retinol in the same routine.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) 10%: Regulates sebum, strengthens the barrier through ceramide synthesis, blocks melanosome transfer to fade post-acne marks, and reduces redness.

Zinc PCA: Controls excess oil production and soothes inflammation around active breakouts.

Hyaluronic Acid: Draws water into the skin for lightweight hydration without weighing the formula down.

D-Panthenol (Vitamin B5): Calms irritation and accelerates skin barrier repair.
