Dr.G Niacinamide 10% BHA × Zinc Booster Serum is a concentrated booster serum designed for skin that suffers from excess sebum, visible pores, blemishes, acne marks, and uneven texture. Its formula combines 10% niacinamide, BHA acids, and zinc PCA to help regulate the appearance of sebum, purify pores, improve skin clarity, and reduce the appearance of impurities and excess shine without leaving a heavy greasy feel.

The formula supports complete care for acne-prone skin by gently exfoliating the skin surface and removing buildup inside pores, while niacinamide and arbutin work to enhance radiance and improve the appearance of acne marks and uneven tone. The serum also contains panthenol, hyaluronate, beta-glucan, madecassoside, ceramide NP, and antioxidants to help maintain skin hydration and support its protective barrier. It features a lightweight, fast-absorbing texture, and is dermatologically tested and non-comedogenic.

Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• The Beauty Time team recommends using the serum after cleansing the skin and applying toner, waiting until the skin is completely dry, and starting two to three times weekly, then gradually increasing the number of uses according to the skin’s response.
• Use only a small amount; increasing the amount will not speed up pore purification and may increase the possibility of dryness or redness.
• Apply the serum on clean, dry skin to reduce the chance of sensitivity caused by acids absorbing quickly on damp skin.
• For combination skin, it can be applied to the forehead, nose, and chin area or areas that suffer from sebum and pores instead of spreading it over dry areas.
• The Beauty Time team recommends following the serum with a lightweight moisturizer containing barrier-supporting ingredients to maintain skin comfort and balance.
• It is preferable not to use it in the same routine with additional AHA or BHA acids, strong exfoliants, retinol, or benzoyl peroxide during the skin adjustment phase.
• Separate days can be assigned for the serum and retinol or other exfoliants to avoid over-exfoliation and irritation of the skin barrier.
• When using it for the first time, perform a patch test on a small area and wait to ensure it suits the skin.
• If noticeable dryness or peeling appears, reduce the frequency of use and focus on hydration and supporting the skin barrier until the skin calms down.
• Do not squeeze blemishes or blackheads while using the serum; this may increase redness and lead to dark marks.
• Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher in the morning to help protect the skin and prevent the appearance of acne marks and pigmentation from becoming worse.
• To get the best benefit, the Beauty Time team emphasizes the importance of gradual and regular use while avoiding combining several strong active ingredients in one routine.
