This serum really diminished the appearance of my pores. I noticed it after 2 weeks and it mattifies my skin but appears like glass. I love it ! But do prep your skin well with moisturiser or else it would feel too dry. Overall, i just love this.

does its job, bit goopy and sticky

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I tried this after Glossier's Super Pure as the Glossier version, although amazing, is half the size and almost x4 the price. I'd say it works almost as well as the Glossier one, there's just something really goopy about the texture that leaves my skin feeling a bit sticky afterwards. I think it's the xanthan gum – no idea why that would be in the ingredients. It does a great job to keep any little spots at bay, it really does reduce redness and overall it's the perfect substitute for the Glossier one. I think it's a bit more diluted, which is why I do about 5 drops morning and night, but since it's so inexpensive I really don't mind going through the bottle once a month.

Skin saviour

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have suffered from acne for many years (combination/oily skin) and was beginning to lose home of clearing my skin before I went to uni. I purchased this product as a last hope, as it was inexpensive and had great reviews. I can say, though this did give a slight purge period, to begin with (draws the gunk out from underneath the skin), the end results are so worth it! This product has completely removed the many tiny lumps I had on my forehead and the pimples that would cover my face. I use this product both morning and night and shall continue to do so, such a great product and for £5 you can't go wrong. The purging period (when it draws the gunk out from under your skin) lasted about a month on me - like I said my skin was BAD. But, I'm so glad I stuck with the product, don't lose hope with the Niacinamide too early.

bad bad news

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

1 in 10 reviews are bad and unfortunately, the same happened to me - broke me out completely! I had small pimples on my checks, where I usually NEVER get any pimples at all! Such a shame, I wanted to love this but I can´t even continue using it. Waste of Money for me.

Wow

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love this. I'm 30 and have suffered from breakouts since I was 18/19. Nothing has ever fixed my skin like this. For the first time in over a decade, I feel confident enough to go out without makeup - and it's cost a fraction of the price of most products I've used in the past.

Really impressed

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I'm 32 and in the last 4/5 months I'm suffering from late acne on my cheeks. I must say this is a very good serum, a little sticky but still comfortable, it has dried my skin a little which is just fine because it was a bit oily. The acne scars seem reduced and my skin is reacting so well. I definitely recommend this lightweight serum, like all other Ordinary Products I've tried so far (Glicolyc Acid Toner, The Buffet, The Caffeine EGCG, Retinoid 0.5% in squalane, Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F) So worth the hype!

Very good

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I'm enjoying this. My skin seems to be clearer and smoother. Long term use will tell if it benefits pigmentation. Overall I'd say for me its been worth the hype and will stay part of my routine.

Great surprise!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I had no idea how much I needed this. I got it because I was curious about the niacinamides moisture retention boosting qualities, but it totally surprised me by quickly clearing my skin of all those annoying little pimples caused by the summer heat. Since using this in the evenings I've noticed myself cutting down on pretty much everything else I've used to keep my acne at bay - retinol, acids and prescription creams are now on my bottom shelf and used only once a week, my skin is too happy and balanced to mess with. I use this serum most evenings after removing my makeup, over a face mist/toner, and seal the deal with The Ordinary Squalane oil or Dr Hauschkas rose cream. In the mornings I use a lighter serum with antioxidants and a high quality sun screen.

Changed my skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I really do believe that we each have unique skin and the way how it responds to products, but wow, has this thing changed my complexion totally. I used to get congested skin, little under skin bumps, that just did not go away unless professional took them out, but now I don't even feel the need to go to my cosmetologist. Also, pimples were an often guest, but now I feel that I have finally found a product that ACTUALLY WORKS. And it's so cheap. After all these years of using different products, I have finally found my holy grail. I put it on the skin after washing and toning it, and then apply moisturiser afterwards. Just ordered couple of more, since they tend to run out on this website quite fast. Thanks The Ordinary!!
