Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is a powerhouse ingredient that minimizes the appearance of pores, regulates oil production, fades dark spots and hyperpigmentation, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and strengthens the skin barrier. At 12% concentration, Naturium's formula delivers maximum benefits without irritation.
Yes! Niacinamide is one of the most versatile skincare ingredients. You can safely layer it with vitamin C in the morning and retinol at night. In fact, niacinamide can help reduce irritation from stronger actives like retinoids.
While 12% is a high concentration, niacinamide is generally well-tolerated even by sensitive skin. Start by using it once daily and gradually increase to twice daily as your skin builds tolerance. The formula includes soothing ingredients like hyaluronic acid to minimize any potential irritation.
Most users notice improved skin texture and reduced oiliness within 2-4 weeks. Dark spots and hyperpigmentation typically show visible improvement after 6-8 weeks of consistent use. For best results, use twice daily and pair with sunscreen during the day.
You can use Naturium Niacinamide Serum both morning and evening! Apply 1-2 pea-sized drops after cleansing and before moisturizer. In your morning routine, always follow with SPF.
Yes! The combination of niacinamide and zinc PCA helps regulate sebum production, reduce inflammation, and prevent clogged pores - all of which contribute to clearer skin. Many users report fewer breakouts within 3-4 weeks of consistent use.
Naturium contains a higher concentration of niacinamide (12% vs 10%) and 2% zinc PCA (vs 1%). The texture is also more lightweight and absorbs faster. While The Ordinary is slightly cheaper ($6), many users prefer Naturium's formula for less pilling and better absorption.
Absolutely! This is a unisex product perfect for anyone dealing with enlarged pores, oily skin, or dark spots. The lightweight formula works great for men who prefer simple, effective skincare without heavy textures.
