Cheap, straightforward and lasts ages. The Niacinamide + Zinc serum helped with how oily my forehead gets during the day, although it wasn’t an overnight difference. One warning: if I use too much it pills under my moisturiser, so literally 2–3 drops is enough. For the price I really can’t complain.
It’s requires skincare knowledge to layer products correctly without causing piling or irritation.
What I appreciate most is that I can build a routine without spending a fortune. I did have to read up on what I was buying because there are so many options, but once I figured out what worked for me, I was very happy with the results. Simple packaging, sensible prices, and no unnecessary fuss.
The price is what initially got me interested, but the results are what kept me buying. I started with the niacinamide serum and gradually learned which ingredients actually made sense for my skin. There are SO many options, though, so doing a little research first is definitely worth it.
I started using their glycolic acid a few weeks ago and I can really see results! Great formulation
Choosing the right serum took longer than actually placing my order. Once I figured out what I needed, the product was simple to use and didn’t feel overly complicated.
I started using The Ordinary’s Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% serum to help with excess oil and visible pores. It took about a month of consistent use, but my complexion looked more even and my skin stayed balanced throughout the day. Adding the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA moisturizer helped prevent dryness, creating a simple routine that delivered better results than I expected for the price.
There are so many products that choosing one was confusing. Thankfully, the website made it easier to compare ingredients, and I ended up finding something that suited my skin without overspending.
Great value for the price. The niacinamide serum noticeably reduced excess oil after a few weeks of consistent use.
