Gave results within 3 days AMAZING

Ive tried the 10% niacinamide serum it was too harsh for me so i returned it and tried this one. I am amazed, i have oily combination. Its worth trying and if it doesnt work for you. You can use it on your body. I bought 2 more back ups of this the moment i tried it 😍

Great product

I have only been using this for a week and have already noticed improvement in my skin. My skin feels smooth and hydrated. I also notice less redness which is great. Very happy with this purchase.

Not a fan ...

I prefer a creamier texture. This was too “runny” for me. I stopped using it so I can’t speak to its effectiveness.

Just wow…

I just bought this and used it the same night and it blew my mind away with how my face looked in the morning. I bought this specifically for my face with plans to use my moisturizer that also contains Niacinamide which is why I like that it is only 5%. I'm not sure how this would work on the body, but on the face it's amazing. It's light enough to use with thicker creams, but also thick enough to make the skin feel hydrated. I love that this is only $14 for over 3 oz. of product and at least for me, immediately effective. 10/10 would recommend! Side note… this may "sting" a little if you aren't used to Niacinamide, but it does subside within 30 seconds or less. This is a lower potentcy, so it is great for sensitive skin types!

Try This if Zinc Breaks You Out

While I wish the formulation for the Niacinamide was 10% like the Niacinamide 10% and Zinc 1%, I still really like this product. I used to use the N 10% + Zinc 1% for years. As I've gotten older, Zinc seems to break me out more. So I switched to this product. The Niacinamide I still wish was higher, but my sebum is staying in check and pores aren't becoming as clogged as before.

Best Niacinamide product!

I never write reviews but I felt I had to with this one. This makes my face GLOW. I tried the niacinamide + zinc drooper bottle in the past. The zinc broke me out in horrible cystic acne, so I was thrilled to see The Ordinary made a niacinamide formula without the zinc. My face has never looked this clear and bright whle using this product. I absolute prefer the pump bottle over the dropper bottle too. (I wish they were all in pump bottles) And I LOVE how much comes in this bottle. It lasts a while. Please don't ever stop making this!!

Easy to incorporate

My skin loves niacinamide, so this is a no brainer for me to include. No irritation, and it adds just a little moisture. My skin is normal to dry acne prone and I've been using for four months on my face and body without complaints.

Gives K-beauty formulation - Better than Vitamin C

Wow, I am so glad I randomly bought this. It did everything and more than Vitamin C. I have sensitive, acne-prone, combination skin. I have tried all different types of vitamin c (active/non-active, US/Korean/Japanese) and this has truly changed my life in a span of a week. It has brightened and evened out my skin tone. I double cleanse, use the multi-peptide+HA, and top it off with this. I really want TO to come out with a hydrating milky toner with niacinamide 5%

Love love love

I got this product after using a niacimide serum that was way to strong and caused me to break out so bad. But this little lady is AMAZING it has made such a difference in how my skin looks and has cleared up my acne so much in use with ofher products couldnt recommend more.

Great with other Niacinamide

I have been using the 10% one for a while but I also have a cream that I really enjoy that also has niacinamide. I realized it was breaking me out due to using too much so I bought the 5%. This with my other skincare has helped fade my hyperpigmentation and even out my skin tone. I have boxcar acne scars and this is even help them begin to fade or at least not look dull!

Rebuying!

I have been using this for a few weeks now almost everyday & I do see progress! It almost smells like sweet donut. The application is milky smooth and doesn't leave a sticky residue. I'm almost out and will go ahead and order another one!

Love it!

I incorporate this product in my skin care routine almost every morning due to scaring & dark spots. It was one of my FAVORITE products from this line (I use a lot of products from the ordinary).

The best niacinamide emulsion

The best niacinamide emulsion that I have! Lightweight and hydrating! I have the oil combination skin. This doesn't make me feel greasy and heavy. It absorbs very fast. More bang for your buck! Highly recommend!
