MECHANISM OF ACTION:

This dynamic duo combats blemishes by curbing bacterial growth, controlling oil production, and minimizing pore size.
Niacinamide facilitates moisture retention and fortifies the skin’s natural defense mechanisms. Meanwhile, Zinc aids in the repair of skin damaged by acne and congestion. The concentrated presence of Niacinamide and Zinc in this serum ensures swift resolution of complexion issues and calms breakouts effectively.

Best suited for individuals with oily and acne-prone skin, The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% offers a healing solution that reduces both the severity and frequency of breakouts while restoring oil balance.
COMPARISON WITH RETINOL AND SALICYLIC ACID TREATMENTS:
Unlike retinol and salicylic acid treatments, which can induce irritation and sensitivity, The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% offers a gentler approach to clearing congested skin.
