Formulation Deep Dive
The Naturium Niacinamide Serum 12% Plus Zinc 2% is a water-based corrective serum designed to regulate sebum production and refine skin texture. The vehicle utilizes a high-clarity humectant system of Propanediol and Glycerin to provide immediate hydration and improve the solubility of the high active load. Performance is driven by a synergistic combination of 12% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and 2% Zinc PCA, which work in tandem to balance oil production and reduce the appearance of pores, while Sodium Hyaluronate and Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) support barrier integrity and antioxidant defense. The formulation is stabilized by Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-11 to create a lightweight, elegant gel texture and is preserved with a robust system including Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, and Potassium Sorbate.
