Niacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.

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.

Waste of money,CLEARLY didnt work for me
I wanted to start a vitamin c and after reading a lot of reviews saying this is a good choice for beginners, i decided to purchase it. I started using it once every three to four days just to see if it would cause any sensitivities. At first there were no problems but no results either (even after a month) i made sure to keep the bottle away from the sun but it still oxidized way too fast. Eventually i had dermatitis on my face and i blamed it on this serum (even though i have my suspicions that it could be another product - the la roche possay cicaplast) i was using both at that time so i decided to throw both.
