✨ Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% stands out as a top-selling serum crafted by the skincare wizards at The Ordinary. Tailored to alleviate congested skin and diminish the visibility and intensity of blemishes, this serum is indispensable for those with oily and acne-prone skin.
💧 This powerhouse treatment, enriched with vitamins and minerals, works wonders in refining the texture of uneven skin. Additionally, it enhances the efficacy of other skincare treatments for a clearer, less congested complexion.

🔬 How it Works: Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and Zinc, naturally occurring substances in the body, team up in this serum to decongest skin and regulate sebum levels. Their potent combination fights blemishes by reducing bacterial presence, controlling oil production, and minimizing pore appearance.
Niacinamide boosts skin's moisture retention while fortifying its natural defense system, whereas Zinc aids in repairing skin damaged by acne and congestion.
💡 Suitability: Best suited for oily and acne-prone skin types, this healing serum reduces the severity and frequency of breakouts while maintaining oil balance.
🤔 Difference from Retinol or Salicylic Acid: Unlike retinol and salicylic acid, which can be harsh and cause irritation, Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% offers gentler yet effective decongestion without similar side effects. It doesn't peel the skin like retinol or salicylic acid but rather prevents future breakouts and decongests the skin.
💊 Good for Acne: This serum is highly effective in treating acne, diminishing the frequency and severity of breakouts by eliminating blemish-causing bacteria, balancing sebum production, and minimizing pore size.
🔆 Good for Scarring and Pigmentation: Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% aids in reducing the appearance and severity of scarring and pigmentation, especially when combined with vitamin C and retinol in a skincare routine.
🌹 Not Recommended for Rosacea: As rosacea typically affects dry and dehydrated skin, this serum isn't advised as a treatment. However, if oily or congested skin is prone to rosacea, it can help balance sebum levels.
🚫 Non-Comedogenic: Designed to clear congested skin, The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% is non-comedogenic, oil-free, vegan, and cruelty-free.
⏳ Not for Wrinkles: This serum isn't specifically formulated to address aging skin or wrinkles.
