Can anyone suggest me a niacinamide serum other than the ordinary niacinamide?

After all the great reviews, I dedicated to give the ordinary niacinamide a try. But it worsen my skin evn more. My skin became red and irritated. I also started to breakout a lot. I really wanted this serum to work. Therefore, can you guys please help me find a suitable niacinamide serum. I have combination skin, it's more on the oily side though.

10% might have been too much for your skin to handle. the concentration used in most studies that talk about niacinamide's benefits range from 2-5%. here are some recommendations in that range 😊

I'm currently using this one and so far it's good. It has niacinamide 5% but it didn't make me break out like it happened when I used the one from the ordinary. Also I have no problem with pilling.
