Twenty percent Niacinamide is a serious concentration. At that level, the brightening, pore-tightening, and barrier-reinforcing effects of this well-loved ingredient move from subtle to genuinely measurable. Skinfood's Lemongrass Niacinamide Serum delivers exactly that, pairing a 20% Niacinamide base with Lemongrass Extract (Cymbopogon Citratus), Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, and Ceramide NP in a lightweight, water-based formula that absorbs quickly and layers comfortably into any routine. Lemongrass brings its own dimension to the formula, contributing natural astringency, antioxidant protection, and a gently purifying effect that makes it particularly well-suited to oily, combination, and blemish-prone skin. Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate is one of the most celebrated ingredients in Korean skincare, a yeast-derived ferment that brightens, smooths, and visibly improves skin texture with consistent use, widely considered the key ingredient behind the famous glass skin effect. Ceramide NP anchors the formula with barrier-repairing and moisture-locking properties, ensuring that such a high concentration of active Niacinamide delivers results without disrupting the skin barrier in the process. The serum has a light, milky texture that absorbs without stickiness and sits comfortably under moisturiser or SPF, making it practical for both morning and evening use.

How to Use

Apply after cleansing and toning, before moisturiser. Dispense 2 to 3 drops and gently spread across the face, patting lightly with fingertips until fully absorbed. Use morning and evening for best results. Always follow with SPF in the morning. If you are new to high-concentration Niacinamide, begin with once daily and gradually build to twice daily as your skin adjusts.
