Does The Ordinary work??

[sadiacarim]

Hi guys! I received my order in the mail today and I picked up the caffeine serum, saylic (sp?) and hylouronic acid serums... haven’t tried them yet but I thought I’d ask if anyone’s had any great experiences with this brand? Thanks!!

I've been using the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% serum and I've noticed a significant difference in my skin. My acne scars are actually fading faster than when I was using a vitamin C serum. It is also helping my acne for sure, since some days I get too tired to do my entire routine and I'll just cleanse and put that on. Hopefully your products work for you! I just bought their toner, vitamin c suspension, and their moisturizer. I can't wait to test them out!

What does the niacinamide do to fade acne scars? Do you know how it works?

@hotlips87 I highly recommend reading the post on Paula’s Choice regarding niacinamide. For acne scars, vitamin C or retinol has worked better for me. I loved using The Ordinary’s Niacinamide serum for a year or so until I started breaking out randomly. I might go back to it soon because I miss it 😞

I will check out Paula's Choice, thanks for the info!
