I had minor purging the first week because I started using it everyday. As soon as I started every other day it settled and now I&#39;m back up to daily use with no issues and great results

I am always so impressed by the texture of Tiam&#39;s products and their Pore Minimizing 21 Serum is no different.

Similarly to the Cream in the same line, Niacinamide, Zinc PCA and Willow Bark extract are the star ingredients. 

The main difference between the serum and the cream, is that the serum contains a whooping 20% of Niacinamide.  There are just a handful of products on the market with such a high % of Niacinamide, the main reason being that studies have shown that Niacinamide between 5-10% will definitely have +ve benefits on the skin. Most people do not need more than this.

----- So then why should you try 20%? 

If you have been using niacinamide and feel that you are still struggling with oil control, enlarged pores due to excess sebum production and bumpy texture, after considering the rest of your routine, you may definitely want to consider this. 

My skin responds well to Niacinamide 10% serums, but within a month of adding this, I definitely saw an improvement with my pore control. The serum is very light-weight and can work in either your morning or night time routine.  I actually enjoy pairing this with my retinol or salicylic acid at night, while using the cream during the day.

BTW, Niacinamide works well with Retinoids, Vit C, Arbutin, Tranexamic Acid and Salicylic Acid, in case you are wondering about other parts of your skincare routine.

I recommend starting with 2-3 times per week. I had zero irritation using this every other day. Just like the cream, there is no added fragrance.  The white crystal sedimentation you see on the bottle neck of the bottle is also normal due to interaction with the air.

Do you think this will be helpful to your skincare routine?

The fragrance was pleasant but a little too much for me

This was an average cleanser for me. I love Some by Mi products but the scent on this one was a little too much for me. Other than that a little goes a long way so the product is economical and good for oily skin.

I have oily, acne prone skin, but hydrating my skin well especially at night has improved my skin greatly. 

The cream is thick yet super smooth, and feels very silky to the touch. Although thick, it absorbs very well given and does not feel heavy at all on the skin. This would be an amazing day time cream even on dry skin but I have totally enjoyed using it as my night cream. A little goes a long way.

When my package arrived, I was having a dermatitis flare that had my skin red, irritated and with dry patches. This cream was not only soothing, but hydrated the skin well and did not agitate my skin.

This cream contains some notable ingredients:
* Jericho Rose extract (to hydrate and add vitality to the skin), 
* Chaga mushroom extract (to improve dull skin and give nutrition to the skin barrier) and 
* Blue Agave extract (to restore the water oil balance of the skin).
* It also contains coconut oil which I was nervous about. I&#39;m happy to report that it has not broken me out!

I had some issues with the fit around my nose, but nothing really to report

This sheet mask focuses on restoring the skin&#39;s natural pH and therefore strengthening your natural skin barrier 

89% of the essence in this sheet mask comes from Heartleaf!

I was so impressed with the volume of essence in these sheet masks. It felt comfortable on the skin, and my skin was left feeling super soothed and hydrated. I was able to do several skins with the essence left in the package and just needed to go in with my night time moisturiser after. Now I am very curious to try the others in this line. 
I love the clear packaging as well. It just adds to the esthetic of the product!

I thought the Mild Acidic pH sheet mask would be my fav, but OMG the hype on these Gummy Sheet Masks is real. 
This is probably the best feeling and best fitting sheet mask I have ever used. The material is a high adherence microfiber that they say can fit almost everyone&#39;s face. You can move it and pull it to fit your face. It was more difficult to open out of the pack, but just take your time and you&#39;d be able to unravel it for application.

The amount of essence in the packs are extremely generous and I did several skins after removing the sheet mask. My skin felt ultra soothed with this one, hydrated, nice and cool and extra soft and supple. This is a sheet mask I&#39;d spend $ on!
