The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% +Zinc 1% Review

Hola beauties! After falling in love with The Ordinary's AHA BHA peeling Solution (Check the review HERE ), I was eager to try more products from the brand. So, I bought two serums: Niacinamide and buffet. Spoiler : The Ordinary products never disappoint and I have absolutely fallen in love with it. Product Description/Claims:  Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is indicated to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes and congestion. Minimizes pores, and regulates sebum.
