It's in so many skincare and food products, some skincare products that also call themselves cruelty free but how can they be if they are deforesting the amazon jungle to get their ingredients? the skincare community needs to have a serious conversation about it, we need to take action against brands that use it.

I’m very fair toned with dry, non sensitive skin. When I had acne for 12+ years, I also had a skin picking disorder (dermotillomania). When I hit my college years I used hydrocolloid stickers to prevent picking but after years of picking, I was left with bright pink scars. I’ve been using Cerave night moisturizer with niacin and I’m scar free. After ruthlessly scratching my skin off for over a decade. Stuff is magical and if Cerave discontinues it, I will riot

I really like the Niacinimide from the Inkey List. I like the formula & that I don't have to mess with eye dropper dispensers that may or may not work. This formula doesn't aggravate my rosacea & allows me to use my Rx rosacea cream less often. My skin is sensitive, mature & leans dry. No issues layering moisturizer or makeup over this niacinimide serum (no pilling)

If you are looking for a good niacinamide serum try Tiam’s Vita B3. The texture is unlike most niacinamide serums, it’s watery and workable. No pilling. Not only is it 10% niacinamide, It has 2% Arbutin and does a great job at brightening. This is the first niacinamide that I’ve used and actually love and enjoying using. As a dry skinned person, it doesn’t dry out my skin which is a relief. It needs to be more popular❣️

Maybe you addressed this in a later video, but I just learned *today* that the Inkey List Niacinamide serum is not vegan, and their product page has more details about that in the Q&A. I also learned that just like the EltaMD sunscreen that the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel *also* has niacinamide in it already too! Was thinking about trying the Inkey List instead of the Ordinary one, so I was comparing ingredients when I realized the Inkey one isn't vegan. Thanks for this helpful video review of some options, and for all your great videos!

I have very dry skin and assumed the hard crusty flakes that started appearing on my face were a result from using the Cetaphil Foaming Cleanser.

My personal favourite is actually the Glossier Super Pure niacinamide serum (I've also tried The Ordinary, The Inkey List, Naturium, and Good Molecules for reference). It's 5% niacinamide (the perfect percentage IMO, clinically proven to be effective and not irritating at all) and has zinc PCA. The serum is lightweight and hydrating, doesn't cake up, and layers well with other products. It's also fragrance free and has a super simple and solid ingredients list (it does have honeysuckle extract as an anti-oxidant if herbal extracts cause issues for you, but the serum itself has zero scent/no fragrance or essential oils). I appreciate that there's no hyaluronic acid since it's so hard to find products without it, and some people are bothered by it. Also no phenoxyethanol which is like a godsend for me since it irritates the hell out of my skin.

I discovered The Ordinary 3 years ago and niacinamide was the first thing I tried out of desperation with an acne flair up that took residence and wasn't responding to anything I had. Obviously it did other things in the long term, but right out the bat it calmed my very angry skin, and the following months I noticed it produced less oil without stripping it at all. Now it's a staple in my routine, using it less or more as I need it.

This was a great comparison. I just purchased Ordinary. Was trying to decide between Paula's Choice and Ordinary. But because I have adult acne, decided on Ordinary. So thanks for confirming that I made the right choice. 😊

I love The Ordinary's niacinimide and use it daily. I also use the Purito water cream as a moisturizer in the summer because it's so light. They've both work very well for me.

my favorite is puritos centella buffet serum, it has 2% niacinamide, 49% cenetella, ceramides, peptides and isolated forms of Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid and Madecassic Acid!

Thank you Cassandra 🥰, can you please look into skin firming serums and moisturizers, like really nice healthy beautiful firming of the skin, not like the creams that make your skin hard as cardboard and you’re in pain to move your facial features.

I tried the ordinary’s one and I thought I was purging but after 3 weeks I realized it was breaking me out oops. I have since moved on to the inkey list one and it’s so far so good!

I have very oily skin and The Inkey List niacinamide doesn't pill on my skin and it absorbs amazingly! By far my favorite niacinamide. The Ordinary niacinamide serum was fine too, but the first time I bought it, it did pill on my skin if I didn't rub it in slowly and had a grainy texture too. But the second time I bought it, it was so smooth to put on and no pilling. I don't know if they changed the formula or what, but it was much nicer the second time. And I purchased from the website both times.

Agreed with The Ordinary. I have oily skin and every time I wake up in the morning, my face is oily af, specially the nose area. After using the ordinary for a while, my skin is waay less oily in the morning, sometimes it's not oily at all. So yeas, I reccomend and the price is on point

Hi Cassandra, awesome video, thank you! Could you say if it's ok to use lactic acid and niacinamide together? If so, which should be applied first?

Currently using the Inky List- I just saw the Ordinary one at the store and put a bit on my hand -- and didn't like the feel as much as the Inky- so I stuck with Inky for now. I do use the Ordinary for other products over Inky - but for nicinamide and vit. C - Inky beat Ordinary in my book. Just want to say thank you too- I only started trying these things after finding your videos - at age 39. Within just 2-3 months my parents who are in their late 70s even noticed a difference in my skin. It's smoother texture/look, less redness, and overall fresher look. I think my skin almost looks better now at 39 than it did at 30. I honestly thought most skincare products were scams- I have been disprooven and I love that you include the science.

I use and love the Niacinamide Toner from Good Molecules. That is so cosmetically elegant and should have been in this video but I understand this is a Niacinamide serum review and not a toner review but Good Molecules Niacinamide Toner is so unique and wonderful and just had to pop this in the comments.

Does it help with oil control? I’ve been thinking of getting it, but didn’t know if I should go for a serum instead. Click on this video, and I see ur comment😂 maybe this is a sign

The nuturium and revolution niacinamide are my two favorite ones. They don’t irritate my skin or burn or sting when i put them on unlike all of these other ones.

My favorite is The Ordinary one! Ran out so I’m using The Glow Recipe one & then back to The Ordinary! Definitely my favorite, inexpensive serum line!
