Description
The CLINICAL Niacinamide 20% Treatment is Paula’s Choice’s highest concentration of Vitamin B3, designed for those who have graduated from standard 10% formulas. This advanced serum targets the “stretched” look of pores that often occurs due to age, sun damage, or chronic congestion. By normalizing the pore lining, 20% Niacinamide prevents oil and debris from backing up, which is the primary cause of rough, bumpy texture and clogs.
This formula doesn’t stop at pores; it is a comprehensive tone-corrector. With the addition of Acetyl Glucosamine and Ascorbyl Glucoside (a stable Vitamin C derivative), it works to fade stubborn post-acne marks and brighten blotchy skin tones. To balance such a high active percentage, the serum is infused with Purslane and Licorice Root, two potent soothing agents that calm redness and ensure the skin remains comfortable during treatment.
Ideal for those with “orange-peel” texture or hard, white bumps (milia-prone skin), this lightweight liquid penetrates deeply to reveal a smoother, tighter, and more radiant skin surface. It’s clinical-grade care that bridges the gap between daily skincare and professional aesthetic treatments.
How to use:
- The Sequence: Apply a few drops once or twice daily after cleansing, toning, and using a leave-on exfoliant (like a BHA).
- Application: Dispense 1–2 drops into your palms and press into the face, neck, and chest. Because of the high concentration, a little goes a very long way.
- Layering: Follow with your favorite treatment serums or moisturizer.
- Sun Protection: During the day, always finish with a sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater to protect your progress from sun-induced pore stretching.
- Pro Tip: If you have sensitive skin, start by using it every other day or mixing one drop into your moisturizer to allow your skin to acclimate to the 20% strength.
