A water-light serum with essentially nothing that clogs pores - the safest profile in this starter set.
This serum is a water-based blend of niacinamide and zinc salt with a short list of texture ingredients. There is no oil, ester or fatty alcohol in the formula, which is why it consistently tops recommendations for oily and acne-prone skin.
Every ingredient in the list below tests at 0 on the comedogenic scale. The only considerations are unrelated to clogging: 10% niacinamide can cause flushing or tingling on sensitive skin, so patch-test if you are new to it.
