Niacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.
It is known to treat acne by reducing inflammation. It also helps fade dark-spots and strengthen the skin by promoting the growth of the ceramide barrier.
Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.
The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

You might see Ethylhexylglycerin often paired with other preservatives such as phenoxyethanol. Ethylhexylglycerin has been found to increase the effectiveness of these other preservatives.

Very good for dehydrated skin, it takes a few minutes to fully absorb it but in general its good, it feels a little sticky tho
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Toning Toner 15 ingredients
so far my favorite toner and someone with FA and combination skin
+ acne
it doesnt trigger sebum production and it hydrates me perfectly very summer friendly and it calms down my skin
I am really sensitive to fragrance and it doesnt have any, only product that worked for me. I used tons of different toners but this is holy grail. I purchased this 3 times. This even has the gaint sized one with 400ml. Gives me glass skin.
