Woomzy

There’s still a few drops in this, but it’s officially going to be my first empty from my skincare routine. Not sure if it’s visible in the picture, but the lid/top/cap whatever it’s called, on this is all crooked. It started off normal, but for some reason got more crooked the more I used it, until it got to a point where closing this was a challenge in of itself. I have a few other The Ordinary products and never stumbled on this problem with them so I’m guessing I just got a faulty one.

My thoughts on the serum were so positive at first. I noticed my skin started to become less dull and more even toned all around, which was my goal when getting this, as well as helping to lighten and/or get rid of my PIH. My skin loved it... For a time. However, recently I started to get irritated by this product, to the point that it stung every time I applied it onto my face, so I had to stop using it altogether.

I did purchase a snail mucin serum from iUnik that helps with PIH, which turns out came with Niacinamide in it. However, I didn’t have an irritation to the snail mucin’s concentration of Niacinamide, so I think the problem was the percentage of Niacinamide in TO’s serum and not the ingredient itself.

This is such a shame as I stocked up on this product when I first bought it, but since I have PIH on my body as well, I’ve resorted to use the rest on my body so as to not be wasteful. It would be great in my opinion, if The Ordinary came out with a Niacinamide serum in the future that has a lower percentage that still delivers results, for people with sensitive skin like me.
