Happy shopping - 6 days ago, Verified purchaser
This is favorite niacinamide product! I only use it at night as the serum is a bit thick for day use. It helps minimize my acne (when I get them) and also brighten dark spots including acne scars! The price point is too good to pass. I hope they don’t ever increase the price. I always stock up on this product!
Feels nice, but makes no difference

Bought this with the hopes of reducing pore size and texture, since this formula is supposed to decrease sebum production. After 2 months of consistent daily use, I’ve noticed zero difference. The product feels nice to apply, but for me, it’s not worth continuing to use.
Yep, it's as good as it says it is

This product exfoliates my face so well. I haven't seen any visible results yet, but I can definitely say that I feel the moisture and grip when this is applied during my skincare routine.
I would buy this product over and over

I've bought this product many times and will always make sure I have plenty of it! I use it once every two weeks. I use Clinique 7 Day Scrub Cream about every other day. I have found the acid really gives me the upper hand to keep my exfoliation routine where I want it. I want to exfoliate every day morning and night, but that's not the way to go! Anyway...........I love lovelove it and recommend it to anyone that would like a super smooth face to apply Make up in the morning and other products for night. Good Luck!!!
I love this would buy again

This gift item was recommended by my soon to be 12 year old grand daughter. Therefore, I'm guessing, "The Ordinary" containing Niaciamide 10% + Zinc 1% is a hit amongst her friends.
A great Serum

A little goes a long way. I would recommend a pea size amount directly onto the forehead and distribute from there. Beware of under the nose and around the eyes. It can dry the skin out fairly easy under the nose and irritate the eyes. I would start out by using this 3 times a week to incorporate it into your routine then after 2 weeks I would say you could use it everyday. If you start experiencing extreme dryness, peeling, irritation I would discontinue use. As far as break outs, it is normal for skincare to help purge what's under the skin. If it's an excessive amount of acne, discontinue.

I ordered this product because other reviews said it helps with oil control, however every time I use it my face pours oil. My skin is not very oily to begin with, just a little shine throughout the day but this makes it severely worse from the moment I put it on. I'm not sure how it will help other skin issues because I've only been using it for a week so far but I am not very happy with the amount of oil my skin is producing so I may discontinue this product.
Great Product!

I just turned 50 and I've been using this a while and then ran out. My moisturizer claims to have niacinamide, so I did replace my bottle right away. I also was in the middle of testing a new sunscreen. Anyway, I began getting clogged/ enlarged pores. I thought it was the sunscreen. But, I had just turned 50 and wanted my free ulta gift, so i went into the store and also decided to restart my Ordinary Niacinamide. 2 days into restarting the niacinamide, my skin got smoother, my pores looked smaller, my wrinkle areas are faded. Particularly the wrinkles between the eyes and on the forehead, where my pores were getting bad. The niacinamide helped reduce the pores, which smoothed the look of the wrinkles. You do need to be careful. 1 drop mixed in with my moisturizer is all I need. To much will cause dryness. (but not using it also caused a different kind of dryness) And there maybe a purge period (but it was not major for me and I have SUPER SENSITIVE skin). Just remember a little goes a long way. Don't just slap it on your skin alone
Forever in my arsenal

This stuff is so incredible! I have large pores/blackheads, mild and small breakouts (particularly when aunt flow is in town) and kind of uneven skin tone, i can look a little red time to time. This stuff has been shrinking my pores, disolving my blackheads, and helping my skin look even and clear! I use this with the good molecules daily brightening serum and the ordinary glycolic toner, with the occasional AHA/BHA peel by the ordinary. I do believe my skin is experiencing a bit of a purge, but nothing unbearable and breakouts are cleared incredibly quickly along with dark spots. I highly recommend. And be sure to moisturize really well!! (Ive been doing this particular routine for a month now and am finally seeing results)

I have always battled oily skin and would go through at least two oil absorbing sheets every day. I did my research, took some self tests to figure out my exact skin type and what ingredients work best to target problem areas, and was lead to this product. I've been using it for a few months now, but it honestly didn't take more than a week to see results. I haven't had to use an oil absorbing sheet since I've started using this, in combination with the Natural Moisturizing Factors + Hyaluronic Acid Daily Moisturizer. My skin feels hydrated but not at all oily throughout the day, I highly recommend this for oily prone skin.
10/10 would recommend

I recently purchased the product about a month ago and have seen my scars go away quickly. I have dryer skin and the serum absorbs fairly quickly. I only use it 1x a day in the morning after washing my face. My texture and skin color has evened out drastically. I continue with my moisturizer and makeup routine. Ive noticed that my makeup sits better on my face since the serum is tacky. If i do have an open pimple, it will burn but nothing that a pimple patch cant fix. I will be purchasing again!
Absolutely love it.
