How it works
This 50ml serum handles the serum step: it delivers a targeted dose of its lead ingredients to the areas that need it most. niacinamide is the second ingredient on this product's own manufacturer list of 33, a vitamin B3 derivative widely used in Korean formulas for tone and texture, which is why the formula reads as more than a generic serum rather than a name-only claim. Used AM and PM, after essence and before moisturizer, it sits in that position of a Korean-style routine, not as a stand-alone product.
