Viral Korean Serums Tier Lists | Ranked and Reviewed
"Niacinamide is a very popular ingredient nowadays, it makes redness a lot better and controls oil, good if you're oily or acne prone. Some people say they're not satisfied because the niacinamide percentage is low, but careful, more isn't always better, higher niacinamide concentrations can cause breakouts and inflammation, so start with a low percentage and work up. This one is just so so, ninety percent of the cosmetics I grab have niacinamide in them anyway, so it's not a C, but for anyone who wants it, this is a B."
