How to Use The Ordinary Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid Together
The Ordinary’s Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid are two popular skincare ingredients that can significantly improve skin health when used correctly. Niacinamide is known for reducing blemishes, brightening the skin, and improving the appearance of pores, while Hyaluronic Acid hydrates and plumps the skin by attracting moisture. When combined, these two ingredients can help create a balanced, glowing complexion. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use them together:
Step 1: Cleanse Your Skin
Start with a clean face. Use a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type to remove dirt, oil, and impurities. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
Step 2: Apply Niacinamide
Niacinamide is best applied after cleansing, as it’s a water-based serum. Take a few drops of The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% serum and apply it evenly across your face, avoiding the eye area. Gently massage it into the skin using your fingertips. Niacinamide works to control excess oil, reduce redness, and minimize the appearance of pores.
Step 3: Apply Hyaluronic Acid
Once the Niacinamide serum has been absorbed, follow up with The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 serum. Hyaluronic Acid should be applied to damp skin for the best results, as it draws moisture into your skin. Use a few drops and gently press it into your face. Don’t forget to include your neck for full hydration.
Step 4: Lock It In with Moisturizer
To seal in the hydration, apply a moisturizer suited to your skin type. This helps to prevent moisture loss and ensures that both the Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid stay locked in for maximum effectiveness.
Step 5: Sunscreen (Daytime Use)
If you’re using this combination in the morning, finish your routine with UV Filter SPF30 sunscreen. Niacinamide helps protect the skin barrier, but SPF is essential for protecting against UV damage.
Tips for Best Results:
- Layering Order: Always apply Niacinamide first and then Hyaluronic Acid. This is because Niacinamide has a lightweight texture and is absorbed faster than Hyaluronic Acid, which is more hydrating.
- Patch Test: If you’re new to either product, it’s a good idea to patch test them to avoid any irritation.
- Use Consistently: For noticeable results, use these serums consistently in your morning or evening routine.
By following these steps, you’ll ensure that your skin reaps the full benefits of both Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid, resulting in clear, smooth, and hydrated skin.
