Would this be safe to use on sensitive acne prone skin?
- Asked by Stef
- Official Answer By Anua - Brand EngageThank you for contacting us at Anua! The Niacinamide 10 + TXA 4 Serum for Brightening and Dark Spots is formulated to help support a more even-looking tone and address dark spots. Many customers with sensitive, acne-prone skin find it tolerable when introduced gradually. For the best results with sensitive skin, we recommend: • Patch testing before full-face use. • Applying a thin layer and observing your skin’s response over a few days. • Introducing it once daily at first, then increasing frequency only if your skin feels comfortable. If you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know.Was this answer helpful to you

My New Skincare Obsession
I've tried my fair share of serums, but this one? It's a total game-changer. If you're on the hunt for tighter, brighter skin, keep reading because this serum is everything. First Impressions Let's talk about the packaging. Simple, clean, and chic. The dropper is super easy to use, and you don't ne...

Not for me
The NIACINAMIDE 10%+TXA 4% Serum by Anua wasn't for me. Some background, I'm a 42 year old Master Esthetician that loves super hydrating (bordering on indulgent) skincare. My combo skin leans a bit dry these days, especially during the winter. My experience using this serum was brief (a week) bu...

Sticky!
I was hesistant to buy this as it claims to be non sticky but certain reviews complain about this.. i saw better reviews on tiktok videos but that should pretty much explain that lol. I apply it and let it absorb for 10. 15 even sometimes 20 minutes before applying my moisturizer but it still feels sticky! Havent noticed any results either.
RUINED skin barrier after ONE use
Used this only ONE TIME and it ruined my skin barrier immediately. Its been over a week since I used it and my skin is getting worse every day. Dry, red, itchy, face covered in papules. Gonna take weeks to heal my barrier again. Would not recommend at all, especially for sensitive or acne proje skin. Wayyyy too strong a papsutels
Not for sensitive skin 
I really thought it was working after 2 weeks , than my face just flared up and i broke out I know it was 10% niacinamide but i thought it was not going to affect me that much, i did switch to the anua azelaic acid and it is way bttr no irritation and the pimples and the redness started going away.
I would definitely buy the is product again
Love love love it
NOT for acne prone skin
I bought this from my local Ulta store and in the few days that i used it my face broke out horribly. One of the worst break outs ive ever had. Tried it one more time a week later because i wasnt 100% sure what product was causing my break outs yet and once again i broke out again so at this point I've definitely narrowed it down to this product being the one that causes my break outs. Also it makes my skin feel very very oily. I do not like the way it feels on my skin at all
