Product description
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% — High-Strength Vitamin & Mineral Blemish Formula
A universal serum for blemish-prone skin that smooths, brightens and supports. The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (30ml) is the original high-strength vitamin and mineral formula loved worldwide for tackling congestion, visible shine and textural irregularities.
Formulated with 10% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) — a concentration shown to penetrate skin more effectively than lower strengths — it helps reduce the look of blemishes, brighten dull skin tone, smooth uneven texture and reinforce the skin barrier. Over time, skin looks smoother, more radiant and more even.
It's paired with 1% Zinc PCA, a mineral complex known to balance visible sebum activity — helping skin look less shiny and congested, without stripping it dry. In clinical testing (35 subjects, twice daily), the formula hydrated skin by reinforcing the barrier in as little as 7 days, with smoother skin achieved after 8 weeks.
This water-based serum layers easily under moisturiser — just 2-3 drops for the whole face and neck. It's alcohol-free, oil-free, silicone-free, vegan, gluten-free and cruelty-free, with a skin-friendly pH of 5.00-6.50. Suited to all skin types, including blemish-prone and sensitive skin.
Note: While Niacinamide and Zinc PCA reduce the look of blemishes and brighten skin tone, neither is a treatment for acne. Patch testing before use is advised.

How to Use
Application Protocol (AM & PM)
- 1Apply a few drops (2–3 drops is enough) to the entire face and neck in the morning and evening.
- 2Use after cleansing and water-based toners, before heavier creams, oils and suspensions.
- 3Allow the serum to fully absorb before moving on to the next step, to prevent pilling.
- 4Follow with moisturiser, and sunscreen in the morning.
- 5Use on unbroken skin only, and patch test before first use.
- 6If irritation occurs, rinse off, stop use, and consult a physician.
To protect your skin barrier and prevent active oxidation:
- • Do NOT use in the same routine as Direct Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid / Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid) — use Vitamin C at an alternate time (e.g. Vitamin C PM, this serum AM).
- • Do NOT use in the same routine as Indirect Vitamin C derivatives, as per The Ordinary's guidance.
- • Use only 2–3 drops — over-applying increases stickiness and pilling under moisturiser or sunscreen.
- • Can be used alongside acne treatments for added visible benefits, if your skin tolerates it.
- • If flushing or warmth occurs (possible at 10% for some users), reduce to once daily or mix a few drops into your moisturiser.
- • Keep out of reach of children; for external use on unbroken skin only.
- • Patch testing prior to use is advised — especially for sensitive skin.
