The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum is a 30ml water-based serum for oily, combination and blemish-prone skin. It combines 10% niacinamide (vitamin B3) with 1% zinc PCA and is made to help balance shine and keep skin looking clearer and smoother.
Who Is This Serum For?
It suits oily, combination and congested skin that gets shiny or shows visible pores. In the UAE, heat, humidity and sweat can make oily skin look shinier through the day, so a lightweight serum under your moisturiser is an easy way to add a targeted step to your routine.
