How to use

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Niacinamide 10% with retinol?
Yes. Apply niacinamide first, let it absorb, then retinol — or use niacinamide in the morning and retinol at night.

Why does my skin pill or flake after applying?
Use fewer drops and let it fully absorb before the next step. Pilling is a texture issue, not irritation.

Niacinamide 10% vs Anua Peach 70% Niacinamide?
The Ordinary is a stronger, simpler formula for oil and pores; Anua is gentler with extra hydrating extracts for sensitive skin.
