The Ordinary NIACINAMIDE 10% + ZINC 1% 60ML

Values: 100% Genuine (Adilsons policy) · Fragrance-Free (confirmed via INCI) · Vegan-Friendly* · Halal-Friendly*.

Pros: same well-evidenced formula as the 30ml SKU, better suited to daily double-application in humid climates without an early reorder. Caveats: not the right first purchase if you haven't confirmed tolerance yet, and this exact SKU is currently out of stock at Adilsons.

GREEN — safe for all ages, including teens with genuine oiliness or early breakouts. For a first purchase for a teen, the smaller 30ml size is the more sensible starting point.

Step 1 (When): AM and/or PM. Step 2 (How much): 2-3 drops. Step 3 (How): pat into skin; if you flush easily, start every other day for the first week.

Introduce this as the ONLY new product in your routine. Wait a full 14 days before adding anything else. This isolation window ensures you can identify whether any reaction is caused by this specific product.

1. Cleanser. 2. Toner (optional). 3. Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% — 2-3 drops. 4. Moisturizer. 5. Sunscreen SPF50+.

1. Double cleanse if wearing SPF/makeup. 2. Toner (optional). 3. Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% — 2-3 drops. 4. Moisturizer.

Technique: pat into skin, don't rub. Wait time: 30-60 seconds before the next step.

Global rules: viscosity ladder thinnest-to-thickest, water-phase before oil-phase, treatments before seals. Wait-time defaults: watery layers 10-20s, serums 30-60s. Amount defaults: serum 2-3 drops, moisturizer 1-2 peas, sunscreen the two-finger rule. If a routine pills, stings, or feels heavy, reduce layers, never increase them.

AM Maximum Stack: cleanse → toner → essence → antioxidant lane → pigment-support lane → hydration lane → oil-control lane (this product lives here) → peptide/repair lane → eye product → moisturizer → SPF50+ non-negotiable.

PM Maximum Stack: cleanse → toner → soothing serum → anchor active → this oil-control serum → moisturizer. Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep one lane per night.

Excess sebum and enlarged pore appearance: identical mechanism to the 30ml SKU — niacinamide regulates sebaceous activity while zinc PCA supports oil control and has antibacterial-supportive properties.

What this product cannot do: it cannot physically shrink pores — only reduce the oil/buildup that makes them look larger.

Sunscreen: primary pick Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun SPF50+. Alternatives: SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum, Anua Heartleaf Silky Moisture Sun Cream.

Gentle cleanser: primary pick COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser. Alternatives: Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser, Anua Heartleaf Succinic Cleansing Foam.

This is a conflict-solver for ACTIVE ingredients. If you run multiple actives, use these rules to avoid irritation, deactivation, and barrier damage.

× L-Ascorbic Acid Vitamin C (on reactive skin): generally compatible, but reactive skin may prefer splitting AM/PM or waiting 10-15 minutes between the two.

Close rule: do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep one lane per night.

Pre-period breakouts happen because progesterone causes the pore lining to physically swell, narrowing the opening and trapping sebum beneath — this serum's oil-regulating mechanism is particularly relevant during the luteal phase, and a larger bottle means you won't run out mid-cycle.

Water-Permeable. This thin, water-based serum does not form an occlusive film and does not physically block water contact during ablution.

MYTH: "A bigger bottle means a stronger formula." REALITY: the 60ml and 30ml sizes are the exact same 10%/1% concentration — only the fill volume changes.

Mauritius' year-round heat and humidity keep sebum production elevated for most people, which is exactly why this larger size makes sense here as a repeat purchase rather than a "just in case" upgrade. The "grimy" feeling in the heat is usually sebum and sweat doing their job, not dirt — over-washing to compensate strips the acid mantle and triggers more of the oiliness you're trying to fix.

Full INCI (identical to the 30ml size): Aqua (Water), Niacinamide, Pentylene Glycol, Zinc PCA, Tamarindus Indica Seed Gum, Carrageenan, Acacia Senegal Gum, Xanthan Gum, Cocoyl Proline, Ethoxydiglycol, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin. [--- Estimated 1% Line ---] Tamarindus Indica Seed Gum, Carrageenan, Acacia Senegal Gum, Xanthan Gum, Cocoyl Proline, Ethoxydiglycol, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin.

Fragrance status: Fragrance-Free, confirmed via INCI. EU 26 allergen screen: none detected. Alcohol disclosure: Alcohol-Free.

Halal: *Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No ethanol from fermentation, no porcine-derived ingredients, and no haram animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared ingredient list. This is NOT a formal Halal certification. Muslims with stricter requirements should consult their own scholars.

Vegan: *Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No animal-derived ingredients detected. This is NOT a formal vegan certification by The Vegan Society or equivalent body.

Cruelty-Free: *Brand-stated policy. Not independently certified by Leaping Bunny, PETA, or equivalent third-party audit in this research pass. *The Ordinary's parent company entered Mainland China retail (Sephora China) in February 2025, where post-market animal testing may apply by law; cross-border e-commerce sales may be exempt.

Microplastic status: Microplastic-Free — no synthetic film-forming polymers detected in the declared INCI.

MFDS Classification: Not applicable — Canadian brand, not MFDS-registered. Clinical evidence: identical to the 30ml SKU — niacinamide and zinc PCA are both well-documented in cosmetic dermatology literature. Evidence confidence: High for the ingredient class.

Fungal Acne Safety: FA-Safe based on the declared INCI.

Assessment: Medium. Same texture as the 30ml size — the plant-gum thickening can pill under certain sunscreens. Use a light hand and wait the full 60 seconds.

Because this is a larger fill used over a longer period, pay closer attention to the printed PAO date — separation that won't remix or an off smell means it should be discarded regardless of how much product is left.

Storage: keep away from direct heat and sunlight.

Patch test: inner forearm 24 hours, then behind the ear 24 hours, before full-face use — especially important if this is your first bottle of this formula despite the larger size.

72-hour barrier reset (if reaction occurs): stop all actives; for 72 hours use only a gentle cleanser, plain moisturizer, and mineral SPF.

Emergency stop signals: hives, swelling, blistering, persistent burning, or breathing difficulty — seek emergency care.

1. Buying the 60ml size before confirming tolerance on a smaller bottle. 2. Skipping moisturizer. 3. Layering a thick sunscreen without waiting. 4. Over-cleansing on top of using this serum. 5. Letting a large bottle sit past its PAO window.

At 2-3 drops per use, twice daily, a 60ml bottle lasts roughly 4-6 months — meaningfully longer than the 30ml size, which is the entire point of this fill option for established daily users.

Using more product per application does not improve oil control faster and simply uses the bottle sooner. Reorder about two weeks before you expect to run out, and keep an eye on the printed PAO given the longer usage window.

This serum's job is identical to the 30ml SKU: sebum regulation via niacinamide + zinc, in the water-thin oil-control rung.

AM: cleanser → this serum → moisturizer → SPF50+. PM: cleanser → this serum → moisturizer.

If this is your first time using this formula, buy the 30ml size instead and switch to 60ml on your next reorder once tolerance is confirmed.

After purchasing, you will receive our skincare education email series covering this product in depth. The recommendations above are based on formulation synergy with Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, not on margin or stock levels. If a pairing does not exist in our catalog, we say so. If you already own a product that fills the same role, use what you have first.

If you're not sure you'll tolerate this formula long-term, the 30ml size of this same product is the more sensible starting point before committing to the larger fill.

This product's primary function is: sebum regulation via niacinamide + zinc, identical to the 30ml SKU. Do not buy this size if you already have an unfinished bottle of either size — finish that one first.

Community sentiment for this formula (INCIDecoder, CosDNA, SkinSafe, DermApproved aggregation) is consistently positive for oil control and PIH fading; reviews don't generally distinguish between fill sizes since the formula is identical. Several repeat buyers specifically cite the larger size as their preferred reorder once they know the formula agrees with them.

A specific Reddit thread for this exact 60ml SKU was not found in this research pass — say so plainly rather than inventing one.

Is this a different formula from the 30ml size? No — identical concentration, just more product.

Should a first-time user buy the 60ml? No, start with the 30ml size to confirm tolerance first.
