Glow Gene Niacinamide Serum is a water-light facial serum built around niacinamide, also called vitamin B3 — one of the few cosmetic actives with a broad evidence base behind it. It is used to help even out the appearance of skin tone, soften the look of enlarged pores, moderate excess surface oil and support the skin's moisture barrier.

The formula is non-greasy and absorbs quickly, which makes it practical under sunscreen in Pakistan's climate. It suits most skin types, including oily and combination skin, and is commonly used alongside a moisturiser rather than instead of one.

How to use: apply three to four drops to cleansed, dry skin, pat gently over the face and neck, and follow with a moisturiser. If you use it in the morning, always finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Introduce it every other day for the first week if your skin is sensitive, and patch-test on the inner forearm first. Cosmetic results build gradually over weeks, not days. Stop use and consult a dermatologist if irritation, redness or stinging persists.
