Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
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 WaterNiacinamide 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.

lovely serum
it took a while to work but it helped fade my acne scars and my skin felt a lot smoother
Perfect for my oily combination skin type. Helps eliminate whiteheads and get rid of acne. I just make sure to use a hydrating moisturiser after and in the day SPF

This product works with hyperpigmentation 100%. I remember using it with other products for hyperpigmentation and works fast with fading of dark scars. I noticed the difference when I ran out of this product and just using my usual brightening serums. Wish winners would restock this. Worth $12! It cost more if you purchase from yestyle/stylevana
I have seriously underestimated the Tia'm brand. I knew them for their infamous vitab3 source serum, so when I seen this mist on reduction at TKmaxx and thought i might aswell as i am running low on my niacinamide serum.
It makes my skin feel hydrated and perfectly preps my skin to absorb the rest of my skincare routine better.
It's 3% niacinamide, contains tranexamic acid. on the bottle it Show more
