Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this lotion's own ingredient list it is named seventh.
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. It is named thirteenth on this lotion's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. It is named nineteenth on this lotion's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Punica Granatum Fruit Extractplant extract
Pomegranate fruit extract, carrying ellagic acid and punicalagins. It is used as a plant antioxidant. The panel names it sixteenth on this lotion's list, beside Niacinamide.
Squalaneemollient
Squalane is the stable, saturated version of squalene, a lipid human skin already makes. It is a light emollient that absorbs quickly, does not oxidise, and is one of the few oils widely considered safe for blemish-prone skin. It is named fourth on this lotion's list, alongside Niacinamide.
How to use
- Apply it after toner or serum, morning and night. Warm a coin-sized amount between the palms and press it into the face and neck rather than dragging it across dry skin, and follow with a heavier cream on top only if your skin wants more.
Where does this lotion go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a lotion goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Niacinamide and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market lotion or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Niacinamide and all. We match this lotion to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this lotion contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance and Parfum. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this lotion is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Adenosine, Tocopherol and Punica Granatum Fruit Extract. The order they are printed in on this lotion's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Squalane.

How it works
The Perfect 9 Intensive Lotion is a 160ml lotion, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named seventh on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Adenosine, Tocopherol and Punica Granatum Fruit Extract, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the lotion format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the lotion innisfree sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.
Worth knowing
- Very dry skin may still want a heavier cream layered on top of this lotion rather than using it alone.
- Patch test on the inner arm first if you are new to the brand or line.

People with dry, flaky skin are more likely to see a benefit from using vitamin E because it enhances moisturization.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
