Benefits Reduces Blemishes: Helps minimize the appearance of acne, breakouts, and blemishes. Minimizes Pores: Can reduce the look of enlarged pores for a smoother skin texture. Controls Oil: Regulates excess oil production, making it ideal for those with oily skin. Evens Skin Tone: Promotes a more even and balanced complexion. Antioxidant Protection: Provides antioxidant benefits to protect the skin from environmental damage. Enhances Skin Barrier: Supports the skin’s natural barrier function. How to use Cleansing: Start with a clean face. Gently cleanse your skin to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities. Toning (Optional): If you use a toner in your skincare routine, apply it before the Niacinamide. The Ordinary Niacinamide Application: Apply a few drops (usually 2-3 drops are sufficient) of The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% to your face. You can use it both in the morning and evening. Gently Pat In: Spread the serum across your face and neck and then gently pat it into your skin. Avoid rubbing or pulling on your skin. Wait: Allow the Niacinamide to absorb into your skin. This usually takes a few seconds to a minute. Moisturizer: Apply your regular moisturizer to lock in the serum and provide added hydration. If you have a specific order for other skincare products, apply them after your moisturizer. Sunscreen (Morning Routine): If you’re using the Niacinamide in your morning routine, always follow up with a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect your skin from UV damage. Niacinamide itself doesn’t provide sun protection, so sunscreen is crucial. Consistency: For best results, use Niacinamide regularly. It can take some time for the full effects to become noticeable, so be patient.
