Honest Review of Good Molecules’ Niacinamide Serum

I want my skin to glow! I want someone to take one look at my complexion and say “Wow, you’re radiant!” (Without implying a pregnancy lol). During the winter months, I have noticed my skin lacking in luster. So I searched for a serum/treatment to liven up my skin. After researching niacinamide I stumbled across Good Molecules. The cost grabbed my attention immediately.

This skincare brand is distributed out of California and made in Korea. Good Molecules’ Niacinamide serum is made with 10% niacinamide. This product claims to promote smooth, even skin and minimize the appearance of pores. My expectations for this product weren’t that high. Keep reading for a comprehensive review of this product.

Background & product claims

I didn’t find much background information about GM. On their website’s about me section they give us a little more insight. “The world has enough products that don’t work and cost too much” is the intro line and not a lie was told. They created Good Molecules to change this problem. 

The Niacinamide serum claims to minimize the appearance of pores and improve the texture of your skin. It also claims to brighten and create a healthier-looking complexion. The ingredients include Niacinamide, propylene glycol, glycerin, 1,2 hexanediol, and other organic chemistry words that help preserve a skincare product. Check out the full list here: Ingredients List. The concentration of niacinamide is 10%. 

Bottle Details

It’s available in 30ml and 75ml bottles. A standard clear dropper is included. It’s lightweight and easy to open.

Texture, scent, and application

The niacinamide serum’s texture is similar to water but thicker. It’s not sticky or greasy. There is no scent or fragrance as well. The overall sensory experience is pleasant when applying. It dries fairly quickly. The instructions suggest allowing a dry time of at least 15 seconds before applying your next skincare step.

The application process involves pinching the dropper/ top of the bottle. I love the ease of measuring out a small amount of product. I only use 4 drops of serum on my entire face after I’ve applied toner. I allow the serum to absorb and dry on my face for a minute or two before moving on to the next step in my routine.

Performance and Results

I used this serum twice a day for 2 months consistently. I ordered my first bottle at the beginning of November 2023. It is now January of 2024, 2 months of usage. I feel that I can give an honest review of this serum. I’ve noticed a few improvements in my skin. For starters, my complexion looks more vibrant. My skin tone is also more even. My skin barrier has never been healthier. I can physically feel a difference in the texture of my face as well. It feels more supple and plump as if I’ve drank a lot of water the day before. I can tell that my skin is hydrated and calm. I have eczema and have dealt with flare-ups and blotches of dry skin for as long as I can remember. Using this niacinamide serum helped my eczema blotches chill out.  

Final Verdict

My overall assessment of Good Molecules’ Niacinamide Serum is, I’m thoroughly impressed. It works and backs up its claims. I have already purchased my 2nd bottle after going through the first in about 2 months. I would recommend adding this product to your skincare routine. It works and doesn’t break your pockets in the process. I love it! I’d rate this product a 10/10 in my book. Would you try this product? Let me know in the comments.
