Niacin but in a dry oil. Instead of using my usual barrier repairing cream, I’m using this Strivectin number and my skin loves it. It really has a silky finish that you can feel when you touch your skin.
Where do I use this in my routine? Well, it’s the last “treatment” product I put on… after vitamin C and before sunscreen. When I use it at night, I apply after retinol… but give the retinol time to sink in. An oil isn’t something I’d use in the summer, but the cool weather has my skin feeling like it needs something more, and masks are sucking the moisture out of skin. You could use a moisturizer before or after this, or use this before and after your moisturizer. Depends on your skin and how much extra TLC it needs.
