Product Details

The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% is a water-soluble Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) serum formulation that targets the signs of congestion and blemishes. With the added Zinc, this important combination has been shown to significantly reinforce skin barrier function, improve skin smoothness, and increase skin radiance over time.

This effective high-strength formula can be applied to your entire face morning and evening before heavier creams.

Contraindications: If topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid and/or Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) is used as part of skincare, it should be applied at alternate times with this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). Otherwise, Niacinamide can affect integrity of the Vitamin C.

Notes: While Niacinamide and Zinc PCA reduce the look of blemishes and brighten skin tone, neither is a treatment for acne. For persistent acne-related conditions, we recommend speaking to your health care provider regarding treatment options. This formulation may be used alongside acne treatments if desired for added visible skin benefits.

Targets: Regulates Sebum, Minimizes Pores
Format: Water-Based
Regimen Step: Before Oils/Creams
Conflicts: Vitamin C (LAA/ELAA/Derivatives)
When to use: AM and PM
What is it?
A serum made for any tiring and ongoing battle with acne and its myriad of side effects, completely oil-, alcohol- and silicone-free.

What’s in it?
↳ Niacinamide (10%): otherwise known as vitamin B3, this ingredient reduces blemishes and works at balancing your skin’s natural levels of sebum. B3 is also known for helping your skin with its texture, defences against external factors (such as pollutants and other skin irritants), and retaining your skin’s moisture.
↳ Zinc (1%): an anti-inflammatory, Zinc is known for its healing properties when it comes to burns, scars and marks. It combats against free radicals (unpaired electrons that are looking for a way to pair themselves up and consequently damage cells, DNA and proteins). As an added bonus, Zinc encourages collagen production, which reduces wrinkles and the signs of ageing.

What does it do?
This serum does its best work with redness, scarring and hyperpigmentation. It can be used in both the mornings and the evenings, and helps with maintaining correct oil levels on the sensitive skin of your face. Additionally, this serum can help with reducing the occurrence of breakouts themselves.



If topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid and/or Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) is part of your skin care routine, avoid using it at the same time as this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). Otherwise, Niacinamide can affect integrity of the Vitamin C.

A Keeper for me..
This product is and has been my daily go to for a few years now... I love the consistency, it absorbs really well, and it works... If I dont use it for a couple of days I really notice a difference in my skin, and along with Buffet, these two are amazing together.

This is my go to for my teenage daughter. She uses it religiously during and after her menstrual cycle to keep her hormonal acne under control. It's amazing at treating and preventing acne (hormonal) and pimples

Very impressed, adding to my regular routine!
A while ago, I decided to get a fringe. I have quite oily skin, so this means I've been breaking out like craaaazy. The worst part is that my skin hasn't been getting time to heal before new breakouts come through. So I decided to try this - and I swear it made a difference overnight. Redness was immediately reduced and it's definitely making a difference. - Jaz (BB staff)

This is my first time buying this product, and I will 100% be buying it again! In the first week of using this, I’ve noticed that my pores haven’t been as congested and appear smaller. The redness in my acne has also significantly improved! I’m so happy and very impressed x

Soft skin.
Soft subtle results. I bought this to help bright sun spots and brighten skin overall. Definitely more vibrant, and perhaps a little change on my sun spots I feel I haven't been using this long enough to tell.

I started with the small size bottle, realized how helpful it is for my skin so I've up graded to the bigger size bottle. It's help fade my spots not instant but over time. I will always purchase this product. It's cheap, and does what it says. A little really goes along way too.
