The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% serum comes in a 75‑ml bottle and retails for about ₹1,200 on the brand’s site. Its 10‑percent niacinamide concentration is the sweet spot for most skin types, while the 1‑percent zinc offers a gentle anti‑inflammatory touch.
Apply a pea‑sized drop after cleansing, before your moisturizer. The gel texture spreads in seconds, leaving a barely‑there finish that feels like a second skin.
You’ll notice the serum working on dull patches and enlarged pores within a few weeks. It’s especially handy if you’re juggling an oily or combination complexion, because it balances sebum without stripping the barrier.
A downside? Niacinamide can cause a mild tingling in very sensitive skin, so patch‑test first. And if you’re already using retinol, introduce the serum gradually to avoid irritation.
Pair it with a hydrating serum like The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5, and finish with a high‑SPF moisturizer. That combo keeps the glow alive all day.
Ready to give your skin a star‑like lift? Grab the bottle from the brand’s website or a local beauty retailer, and start layering it into your nightly routine—your complexion will thank you.
