Ingredients Explained

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!
Learn more about WaterDipropylene Glycol is a synthetically created stabilizer and solvent. It is a part of the glycol class in the alcohol family.

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.

Here's what our community thinks
Numbuzin No.3 Super Glowing Essence Toner 69 ingredients
broke me out so bad
thought my skin was just adapting so i continued to use it for 3 more days. it awakened pores that were semi-gone alrdy and it developed puss and it was so sore and itchy entire night. gradually went away after i stopped using
very uncomfortable
saw a lot of ads for this brand so i wanted to try it. caused a lot of irritation and made my skin more dry. has a lot of unnecessary fermented ingredients that i must’ve been allergic to as well as common allergens. do not recommend for sensitive skin.
