Naturium Niacinamide Face Serum 12% Plus Zinc 2% Jumbo, Anti-Aging, Pore Minimizer & Dark Spot Corrector with Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin E, Vegan & Cruelty-Free, 2 oz

Excellent alternative to some of the more expensive niacinimide products. I bought this primarily to reduce pore size and improve overall texture/complexion and I feel like it delivers on those particular benefits. The results are subtle but definitely noticeable to me after use for about 6 weeks. I don't struggle with acne but do get occasional blemishes so I appreciated the added zinc. The gel texture feels nice, not sticky or greasy, and is nicely hydrating. I also really enjoyed the pump bottle--so convenient to use quickly in your morning or nighttime routine. I would definitely repurchase this as it is a solid option at a price point that is sustainable.

I absolutely love this niacinamide and zinc serum! I’m in my 40’s and after using it consistently, my skin feels a lot smoother and clearer. It has completely balanced my complexion my pores look smaller, my skin tone is more even, and I have a healthy glow that I never had before. The texture is lightweight and absorbs quickly without feeling sticky or heavy. I’ve noticed fewer breakouts and less oiliness throughout the day, which has made such a difference in how confident I feel without makeup. Every time I use it, my skin looks brighter and more beautiful. It’s become a must-have in my routine, and I can truly say it transformed my skin for the better. Highly recommend to anyone looking for clear, radiant, flawless looking skin!

PROS (of which there are many): - IT WORKS!! Oily skin gal here. This product has been AMAZING at managing my sebum/oil production and balancing out my skin tone after only about 3 months of use. 12% is a very sizeable % of niacinamide, and it definitely shows in how effective this product is. I can't wait to see what 12 months of regular use does! - AESTHETICS. The packaging decisions are overall very good! It's simple, elegant, beautiful, and so professional. The bottle also feels very high-quality. - THE BOX. I love love love researching different ingredients and the theory/science behind skincare, so I was really jazzed to see how you could take the outer box apart and learn more about the effects and benefits of niacinamide and zinc for your skin. SO smart, and the interactiveness was really neat. - FUNCTION. I LOVE the pump. It's so easy to use, and just one pump deposits the perfect amount needed for my whole face, plus another half pump for my neck. I'm so tired of all the droppers, so a pump is a refreshing change. - FORMULA. It's a slightly thicker serum that I find easier to apply than super liquidy serums. It doesn't go everywhere. It sinks into the skin well. It also feels so smooth and luxurious on the skin without getting really sticky, so it's extremely enjoyable to use. And fragrance free! CONS (only a few, and very minor) - LARGE PACKAGING. It's a pretty tall bottle in comparison to some other dropper-packaged serums I have (see pics below for size comparisons), so that might be something to keep in mind if you're traveling or just want to save space. It's not super massive, and I truly don't mind the taller size. But there might be someone out there who does. It's also on the heavier side of serum bottles. - OPAQUE PACKAGING. Although I think the opaque and simple packaging of this serum is absolutely GORGEOUS, I wish I could see much serum I have left in the bottle. And since the bottle is a bit heavier than other serum bottles, I can't tell how much is left based on weight. A little bummed out about that. - NO INGREDIENTS ON BOTTLE. The ingredients WERE listed on the box itself, thankfully. However, none on the bottle itself. Serums usually don't include their ingredients on the bottles themselves, I guess because there's not enough space. However, since this bottle is quite a bit bigger than most serums, I do think there was enough room to stick on an ingredient list on there somewhere, even on the side of the cap if need be. I didn't want to keep the box because it takes up space, so I now have to go online if I want to look at the ingredients. A little bummed about that, but still not a big deal. Overall, I am SO SO SO HAPPY I purchased this. I'm really excited to try out more products from Susan Yara's brand. Her knowledge and passion for skincare is through the ROOF, so I was so so excited when I heard she launched Naturium. This is my first experience with Naturium, and so far, I am so pleased!

It definitely helps! I have SUPER oily skin and some large pores. I notice that my skin is a bit less oily and pores look better. But I do wish it was less sticky. I dunno, my skin feels a tiny bit sticky afterward even when only using a little bit.

Niacinamide is gentle yet effective, helping improve skin texture and balance. It reduces redness, minimizes the look of pores, and leaves the skin looking smooth and healthy. A great everyday skincare ingredient.

I have been using this for about a month now and I am so happy I found it (and this brand in general). I am 37 and ever since having my second child in 2019, I've noticed I get regular hormonal breakouts before I menstruate (something I never experienced, even during puberty). I am also getting older, and have noticed some changes in my skin texture, larger pores, mild rosacea. I was using retinol at the recommendation of my esthetician, but just felt it wasn't helping the way I'd have liked. This gel serum has made a massive difference. I get far, far fewer hormonal breakouts, and when I do they clear up much faster. My skin feels much more balanced. I have also noticed my pores have shrunk and my rosacea is much less noticeable. My skin also has stayed better moisturized as I believe the hyaluronic acid in this makes a big difference with helping my skin absorb my moisturizer. I cleanse with a gentle cleanser, tone, then use this serum, then my moisturizer in the mornings. In the evenings I layer the niacimide gel moisturizer on top of this, then my regular moisturizer. My skin gets very dried out in the winter so the extra layer helps. This sits well underneath my bare minerals powder foundation and sunscreen. I have combination skin and it does not make it more greasy or anything. This will be staying in my skincare rotation probably indefinitely. I am so glad I found it, and this brand in general. I have the body lotion and body butter as well, and they are amazing too.

my skin reacted very nicely, however it leaves a flaky film after a couple of hours. It took me several days to figure out which product was making my skin flaky looking. This kind of defeats the purpose of the serum. It is a gorgeous finish on the skin for the first few hours. Pores are minimized, skin has a glow. But, then it starts flaking and gives the illusion of very very dry skin. Not pretty.

The Naturium Niacinamide Face Serum 12% Plus Zinc 2% Jumbo has quickly become a cornerstone of my skincare routine! This serum is like a magic potion for anyone looking to enhance their skin’s glow while tackling stubborn pores and signs of aging. First off, the size of the jumbo bottle is fantastic—great value for the price, and it lasts a good while even with daily use. The formula itself is incredible. The 12% niacinamide provides a noticeable improvement in my skin's texture and tone, while the 2% zinc helps with oil control and minimizing pores. I’ve noticed my skin looking brighter and more even, with fewer visible pores and a smoother texture. It absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue, making it easy to layer with other products. Plus, it hasn’t caused any irritation, which is a huge win for my sensitive skin. The serum has a subtle, pleasant scent and feels lightweight yet effective. It’s become an essential part of my daily routine, and I’m thrilled with the results. If you’re looking for a powerful serum that delivers visible improvements in skin brightness and pore size, the Naturium Niacinamide Face Serum is definitely worth a try!
