    True star for niacinamide product 🌟

    Incredibly lovely and with many good properties! ❤️ My skin can sometimes react to niacinamide, but not to this one! ☺️ The product has a gel consistency and is more like a day cream than a serum in thickness. Fragrance-free. You can use it both on its own or together with another cream. I, who have dry skin, use it with a cream, but if you have oily skin, this will probably be good and well on its own. After some time of use, my skin feels hydrated, has regained glow, the skin tone is more even, and my redness has decreased significantly. I also think it feels stronger, firmer, and healthier overall. ✨ It is a bit more expensive, but since my skin loves this, it is definitely worth the price for me. I recommend it if you are looking for a star niacinamide product for your skincare routine. 🌟 Especially if you have sensitive skin. #lykoreview

      Heihei 👋 The serum from Anua works specifically on pigmentation, uneven skin tone/texture - while this product from face formula is in gel form - not as thin as, for example, Anua's serum. The product works more to provide moisture, reduce redness, and minimize the visibility of pores. Both contain niacinamide, but in slightly different doses and consistencies. Using them together is not dangerous in itself, but it means you get quite a bit of niacinamide in one routine. Here it is important to remember that adding more products that contain the same ingredients does not necessarily lead to faster or greater effects, as it can often become "too much" product on the skin 🙌 A lot of niacinamide at once: Niacinamide is generally well tolerated, but with multiple products containing it, some may experience irritation or a "niacinamide reaction" (redness, tingling). If that happens, use one product at a time first before you combine them. You can definitely try using the Anua serum during the day and use this product as a finishing moisturizer. If you need a bit more moisture now in winter, you can also use this product as a serum and apply a finishing moisturizer at the end 💓 📌 If your skin is sensitive or easily irritated, you can also use Face Formula only as a moisturizer (possibly after a mild serum) and use Anua serum every other day to acclimate your skin to the dose and texture. ❗ Always use sunscreen during the day, especially when working with ingredients like tranexamic acid and high levels of active substances. Wishing you a nice day ahead 🤗

    Combination skin

    Hi, I typically have a T-zone with a very oily forehead and no chin, but very dry cheeks. I use Niactil 4% all over my face and oil control serum underneath on my forehead and chin. I find that Niactil doesn't provide enough moisture now in the winter. Would the face formula be a better alternative for more moisture and combination skin?

      Hey E! 🌞👋 It sounds like you have a typical combination skin that needs a little extra care in the winter cold! Niactil 4% is great, but if you feel like it’s not providing enough moisture right now, it might definitely be wise to consider this.
