Re-balance oily or combination skin types with this innovative skincare saviour. The Ordinary’s 100% Niacinamide Powder features a fine powder texture, offering a water-soluble form of Vitamin B3. This multi-faceted active ingredient is renowned for multiple skin benefits. It contributes to balancing visible sebum activity and supporting the production of components that play a central role in the structural and functional integrity of the skin. The powder can be combined with your current skincare routine to target enlarged pores, visible shine and textural irregularities. The powder format enables the most direct application of Niacinamide to the skin, promoting optimal efficacy.

The powder is designed to be mixed with water-based skincare products, quickly dissolving to create an undetectable, smooth texture. The formula offers more direct exposure to Niacinamide than that of the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum, offering a DIY experience for custom, personalised usage. Combine with non-conflicting skincare products to address multiple skin concerns at once.

Caution: We do not recommend combining Niacinamide with topical Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid, Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid and Vitamin C derivatives) in the same regimen. If Vitamin C is used as part of your skincare regimen, we advise to apply them at alternate times with this formula (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and this formula in the AM). In addition, we do not recommend dissolving Niacinamide Powder in Direct Acids. Please refer to the brand’s Mixing Guide for guidance in selecting suitable dissolving bases.

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. If irritation occurs, rinse off, cease use, and consult a physician. Use only as directed on unbroken skin. Patch testing prior to use is advised. Refer to this website for a patch test guide, regimen guide, and product compatibility. Keep out of reach of children.
