Wow! I can notice a difference! I had another serum with a lower % niacinamide in it, and didn’t notice any difference in pore size - so I didn’t think this would work either. But it does! I bought this after a recommendation and thought I was imagining an improvement already after 1 week (using morning + evening), but after 2 weeks I really see an effect. I have always had oily skin and large pores on my forehead, on my nose, and on my cheeks near my nose). Due to medication, it has gotten even worse, so I have felt quite desperate before I found this. Over the years, I have developed pigment spots and now I am quite sure that I have melasma (I have had a large dark and stubborn spot on my forehead for 2 years), but they have become lighter since I started using niacinamide. This serum is stronger than my previous one and it shouldn’t need to be stronger to have an effect both for pore size and brightening - I can confirm that it actually works! I highly recommend this serum, but if you have never tried niacinamide before, you should gradually ease into it, don’t just slap it on morning and evening like I did. Alternatively, you should start with a milder product before you switch to this one. Previously, I used Puritos "Wonder Releaf Centella Serum Unscented" which contains a lower percentage of niacinamide and was very gentle and kind to my dry skin. But I didn’t think it helped with pore size even though I used it for many months, I think I was on my 3rd package when I got this. On the evenings I use BHA acid (2%) I let it sink in completely - at least 20 minutes, before I apply the serum. Otherwise, the BHA acid and niacinamide cancel each other out, and I want to get maximum effect from both (otherwise it’s unnecessary to use the products). After the serum, so far it has been enough with Puritos "Hydro Wave Deep Sea Cream", but I’ll see how dry I get in the fall and winter. Then I’ll probably switch to something creamier for the night.
