Description
A serum to combat blemishes, congestions, and sebum over-production.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is indicated to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes and congestion. A high 10% concentration of this vitamin is supported in the formula by zinc salt of pyrrolidone carboxylic acid to balance visible aspects of sebum activity.
Niacinamide – Excellent for improving general skin health, niacinamide boosts skin immunity and improves moisture retention by strengthening the epidermal barrier.
Zinc – Supports skin structure by healing damaged skin and encouraging the production of collagen and elastin.
Contraindications: If topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid and/or Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) is used as part of skincare, it should be applied at alternate times with this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). Otherwise, Niacinamide can affect the integrity of the Vitamin C.
