The Ordinary Niacinamide Powder
100% Niacinamide Powder from The Ordinary offers the most direct topical exposure of Niacinamide to target visible shine, enlarged pores and irregular skin texture. This powder format offers a DIY experience that allows one to personalize their usage based on their preference. In comparison to the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% solution, this powder format offers the user versatility in combining the benefits of Niacinamide with the benefits of other non-conflicting technologies (such as Peptide serums) to address multiple skin concerns at once.
The Ordinary’s 100% Niacinamide Powder is perfect for those who’re already obsessed with the bestselling serum, but want to be able to tailor their usage to better address their skin’s own, unique needs.
An excellent all-rounder, niacinamide – also known as vitamin B3 – has a spectrum of benefits, from minimising visibility of pores to improving uneven skin tone, fortifying barrier function, diminishing dullness and softening fine lines and wrinkles as well as reducing the redness that follows a blemish (phew!). With so many strings to its bow, there’s a reason it’s making a name for itself amongst clued-up skin care connoisseurs – and now, in this ‘mixable’ format, you’re able to marry its benefits with other (non-conflicting) formulations to address several needs in one step. Readily water soluble, this can be added to your favourite water-based creams and serums, providing that the pH is between 5.0 and 7.0 (so nothing too acidic or too alkaline) – for example, it’s perfect when used to boost The Ordinary’s {Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5}, {Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA}, {“Buffet” + Copper Peptides 1%} or {Matrixyl 10% + HA}… to name a few.
To use the formula, mix a quarter scoop of the spoon provided with a water-based treatment in the palm of your hand and apply to the face in the morning and/or evening. Avoid contact with eyes, if contact occurs rinse thoroughly with water. Wash hands after handling. Do not mix with formulations with a pH of 5 or lower.
