Treating hormonal acne
I use this religiously each morning.It does take a min to dry so I put it on while i do another part of my morning routine. It helps unclog pores.Doesn't leave a sticky feeling
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
So I alternate this with a retinol each night.Does keep my breakouts to a minimum. I mainly use it on my chin/jawline and I definitely see a difference
The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Anhydrous Solution
This is what I alternate between with the salicylic acid serum. I don't feel any tingling or stinging which is great.I will say to watch putting it to close to your lips.I realized my lips were getting chapped and dry.
The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2%
This servers as my morning moisturizer and SPF.Keeps my routine simple.
