Sharonspendstoomuch review for Vita B3 Source

I received this serum thanks to @go.picky and @tiam_global in a giveaway in exchange for my honest review Claims: ✅ This high-performance brightening serum, formulated with 10% Niacinamide and 2% Arbutin minimizes the appearance of dark spots and discoloration for a brighter, more even skin tone and radiant-looking complexion ✅ Recommended for following skin concerns: Dark Spots, Acne Marks, Blemishes, Sun or Age Spots, Uneven skin tone or oiliness Key Ingredients: ✅ Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) ✅ Arbutin ✅ Allantoin ✅ Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate (Licorice) ✅ Japanese cornelian cherry ✅ Sodium Hyaluronate Texture: ✅ A clear solution slightly more viscous than water, no scent Packaging: ✅ Dark amber glass 40ml/1.35fl oz bottle with dropper to dispense product My Review: ✅ I usually do not purchase a separate niacinamide product as I already use other products containing this ingredient, although not with a 10% concentration. ✅ However, I was very interested in trying it because of the inclusion of Arbutin, as I want to reduce some slight hyperpigmentation on the side of my face. ✅ I have been using this serum now for about 2 ½ weeks. I did not do a patch test as recommended due to the high percentage of niacinamide, but only because I used another serum with similar ingredients last month and had no irritation. ✅ I did still just start out using it 2x the first week in the evening, but quickly changed to using it 2x every other day with no issues. ✅ After cleansing and toning, I apply 2-3 drops of the serum into my hands and pat it onto the skin until it absorbs. As it is a little watery, this was enough to cover my entire face and neck. ✅ I thought that the serum absorbed fairly quickly, although there is an initial tacky feeling that dries down after a few minutes. ✅ The directions indicate there is an option to reapply more as a spot treatment but I dIdn’t use the serum that way. ✅ When using it in the AM, I followed up with my moisturizer and sunscreen with no pilling. I put it on after toner but before my serum and moisturizer in PM. ✅ My skin seems to really like the Tiam Vita B3 serum, and I have already seen some results in the short time I’ve used it. Skin texture has improved and hyperpigmentation is fading slowly. It leaves my skin looking brighter, more hydrated with no oiliness and no irritation. ✅ This serum is suitable for all skin types, except sensitive ones which may not be suitable due to the high percentage of niacinamide. ✅ I would recommend as it has a decent amount of product and is priced at around $20 (or less on sale). ✅ I definitely plan to repurchase once I finish provided I continue to see improvement. My rating: 5 out of 5
