The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% serum is your go‑to after a hectic day. Its lightweight gel glides like a feather, leaving no greasy film – just a subtle, calming mist on your skin.
Niacinamide, a vitamin B3 derivative, whispers to inflamed pores, tightening them and softening redness. The serum’s 10% concentration is strong enough to work, yet gentle enough to feel like a gentle caress.
Drop 2–3 drops onto damp skin, pat gently, then follow with a lightweight moisturizer like Neutrogena Hydro Boost. The serum absorbs quickly, giving you a smooth base for your nighttime routine.
Nighttime is when your skin repairs itself; the serum’s anti‑inflammatory powers are most potent after a day of stress. Giving it a night’s rest lets the niacinamide work while you sleep, prepping you for a fresh morning glow.
If you have very dry skin, layer a richer cream on top because the serum alone may sting. A hydrating balm or a richer moisturizer will lock in the benefits without drying out your skin.
Grab a 30ml bottle for ₹1,200 on Nykaa, add a 10% niacinamide serum to your nightly routine, and watch your skin transform from a post‑work haze to a calm, balanced complexion.
