I was so excited to try out the new Sunday Riley B3 Nice 10% Niacinamide Serum because I love Niacinamide and it’s an ingredient that most people can use and benefit from. It’s launching soon, here’s what you need to know.

Key Ingredients
10% Niacinamide – a Vitamin B3 derivative that helps skin retain moisture, reduce the look of pores and post-acne dark spots and improve oiliness and surface redness
Brightenyl (Diglucosyl Gallic Acid) – a molecule that is activated by the skin’s microbiome, and brightens the look of skin, soothes the signs of sensitivity
Trans-Resveratrol – antioxidant that defends against environmental aggressors, and works well with Niacinamide to brighten the appearance of dark spots
EGCG – antioxidant derived from green tea which helps to protect the skin from free radicals, oxidative stress and pollution to reduce the look of dark spots
My Review
The texture of this serum is so nice. It is silky, light and sinks in beautifully. This makes it an easy product to add into your existing skincare routine if you are looking for a brighter skin tone and you want to do a bit of work on visible pores and skin redness.
Once sunk in, the consistency layers really well with other products so it’s great for use day or night.
I find the Sunday Riley B3 Nice serum quite hydrating in texture. It leaves my skin feeling plump and bouncy with a really smooth feel. As I said, it sinks in really nicely and so it an easy serum to add in to my routine.
So far I have only been using if for about 4 days, so it’s too early to comment on its ability to improve the look of pores and dark spots. I’ve heard great things about the results for post-acne pigmentation and pore size.
I love Niacinamide and this is a great serum for day time because it is absolutely packed with antioxidants to defends against free radicals and pairs beautifully with your SPF for doubled-up protection.
As this serum has oil-control properties, it may be best suited to oilier skin types. If you have dry skin, you could find that this formula isn’t hydrating enough for you.
I think oily skins will enjoy using this twice per day, whereas dry skins will potentially want to use it less. If you’re interested in trying it, I’d recommend for all skin types to start with once a day and see how you go.
