Key ingredients (why it works)
- Niacinamide: A multi-tasking vitamin B3 that tightens pores, balances oiliness, and fades uneven patches for a smoother, more even complexion.

Ideal for
Ideal for those who want to minimise the look of pores and even out their complexion for a smoother, more polished finish.
For the best results
- Week 1: Skin may start to feel softer, smoother, and more comfortable from the first few uses.
- Week 4: With regular use, you may begin to notice a difference in skin texture and tone — skin can appear fresher and more even.
- Week 8: Over time, with consistent daily use, skin may appear more rested, with improvements in firmness and overall radiance that can vary from person to person.
How to use
Cleanse your face thoroughly and pat dry. Apply a few drops of serum to your fingertips and warm slightly. Press and smooth over the face and neck — avoid the eye area. Allow to absorb fully before applying your moisturiser. Use morning and evening as part of your regular routine.
