Niacinamide (vitamin B3) at 10% is the clinical threshold at which it demonstrates the strongest scientifically documented benefits: reducing hyperpigmentation, fading post-acne dark marks, minimising enlarged pores, regulating excess sebum, and improving the overall clarity and radiance of the complexion. Combined with zinc PCA for oil regulation and anti-inflammatory action, this serum addresses the most common Pakistani skin concerns — dark spots, oiliness, acne, and dullness — simultaneously in a single lightweight, daily-use product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Ingredients \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNiacinamide 10% (Vitamin B3):\u003c\/strong\u003e Multiple peer-reviewed studies confirm that topical niacinamide at concentrations of 5–10% significantly reduces the transfer of melanin from melanocytes to surrounding skin cells — directly interrupting the process that creates dark spots and hyperpigmentation. At 10%, it also strengthens the skin barrier, reduces redness and inflammation, minimises pore appearance, and regulates sebum production for oily skin types. It is one of the most versatile and well-tolerated actives in all of skincare.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZinc PCA 1%:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinc gluconate combined with pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA) provides powerful oil regulation by reducing sebum excretion and balancing the skin's natural oil production. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that help calm active breakouts and reduce the redness associated with acne.

Dispense 2–3 drops onto fingertips and press or spread gently across the face. Allow 60 seconds to absorb before applying moisturiser. The serum has a slightly viscous, water-like consistency that absorbs smoothly without leaving stickiness. In the morning, apply before SPF for the most complete daily protection against both UV damage and melanin formation. In the evening, apply before moisturiser. For maximum hyperpigmentation results, pair with glycolic acid toner (applied first) and daily SPF 50+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Ordinary Niacinamide Serum in Your Skincare Routine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply at the serum step after cleansing and toning. Niacinamide pairs excellently with almost all other The Ordinary actives: apply glycolic acid toner first, then Niacinamide serum, then Hyaluronic Acid Serum, then moisturiser. Note: At very high concentrations, niacinamide and direct vitamin C (ascorbic acid) can temporarily interact — if using vitamin C, apply it at a different time of day than Niacinamide. This does not apply to vitamin C derivatives like ascorbyl glucoside. With consistent daily use over 8–12 weeks, users with Pakistani skin typically see measurable fading of dark spots and improved overall skin clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy The Ordinary from Korean Skincare Pakistan?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKorean Skincare Pakistan sells 100% authentic The Ordinary products shipped in 5–7 business days with Cash on Delivery across all major Pakistani cities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% available in Pakistan?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — at Korean Skincare Pakistan with Cash on Delivery nationwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the price in Pakistan?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePKR 4,600 at Korean Skincare Pakistan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long before Niacinamide fades dark spots?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost users see visible lightening of dark marks and improved skin clarity after 8–12 weeks of consistent twice-daily use.
