FAQ:

Q: What does NINELESS B-Boost 10% Niacinamide Serum do?
A: It helps brighten dull-looking skin, refine enlarged-looking pores, improve uneven tone and post-blemish marks, and support smoother, more hydrated skin.

A: According to the supplied product information, yes. Niacinamide is also the second ingredient in the INCI, although the exact 10% concentration is not written directly in the ingredient list.

Q: Is 10% Niacinamide strong?
A: It is a relatively concentrated Niacinamide level. Many skin types tolerate it well, but sensitive skin may experience temporary flushing, tingling or irritation and may benefit from gradual introduction.

Q: What does Niacinamide do?
A: Niacinamide helps support the skin barrier, improve dullness and uneven-looking tone, and make enlarged pores appear less noticeable.

Q: Does Niacinamide permanently shrink pores?
A: No. Pore size cannot be permanently changed by a serum, but Niacinamide can help pores appear more refined by supporting balanced-looking sebum and smoother texture.

Q: Can this serum help oily pores?
A: Yes. Niacinamide can support balanced-looking sebum and may help oily areas appear less shiny and pores less prominent.

Q: Does it contain Tranexamic Acid?
A: Yes. Tranexamic Acid is clearly listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: What percentage of Tranexamic Acid does it contain?
A: No percentage is supplied, so the exact Tranexamic Acid concentration cannot be determined from the INCI alone.

A: Yes. Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, Ascorbyl Glucoside and Glutathione provide multi-targeted brightening care that may help visible discoloration appear less noticeable with consistent use.

Q: Can it permanently remove hyperpigmentation?
A: No. Cosmetic skincare can improve the appearance of pigmentation, but it cannot guarantee permanent removal and discoloration may recur.

A: Yes. It can help flat post-blemish discoloration appear more even over time. It cannot remove indented or raised acne scars.

Q: Can it treat melasma?
A: It may support a more even-looking complexion, but it should not be considered a medical treatment for melasma. Persistent melasma is best assessed by a dermatologist.

A: It is generally unnecessary because the supplied product information already states that this serum contains 10% Niacinamide.

A: You can, but layering several products with the same brightening active is usually unnecessary and may increase irritation without providing proportionally faster results.

A: Yes. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is particularly important when targeting dark spots and uneven pigmentation because UV exposure can contribute to recurring discoloration.

Q: Can I use it under makeup?
A: Yes. Apply a thin layer, allow it to absorb, then follow with moisturizer, sunscreen and makeup.

Q: Has the formula changed?
A: The supplied product information states that both the packaging and formula have been renewed. Older online ingredient lists or packaging images may therefore differ from the current supplied version.
