Good Molecules Niacinamide Serum has the main ingredient Niacinamide 10%, which has the function of fading dark spots, brightening skin, treating acne, shrinking pores, balancing, and moisturizing. Its low price really stirs up the skincare world.
To get a realistic perspective on this product, we conducted a survey of customers who had used the serum for at least one month. The article will prioritize the results of the survey, followed by reviews (design, structure, price, etc.) and the author’s personal advice.

II. My own review
This content is mostly about my feelings about some basic aspects of Good Molecules Niacinamide Serum 10%. Most of the information has been published, but I will summarize it to save your time.
a. Design
The serum bottle has a simple design, like most other brands. The packaging has youthful colors and a bit of luxury. Information about the ingredients and functions of the product is printed clearly and completely.
b. Volume and price
This serum has two versions: 30 ml priced at 5.99 USD and 75 ml priced at 12 USD sold at Amazon. With a price like this, it attracts a lot of attention and purchases.
Some say the product is of equal or better quality than other expensive brands, making it worth every penny. This serum is a bit more liquid than expected, so it is easy to absorb.
c. Uses
Good Molecules Niacinamide Serum is announced to have the function of fading dark spots, brightening skin, treating acne, shrinking pores, balancing, and moisturizing.
d. Suitable skin type
According to the manufacturer, it is suitable for all skin types. However, through the survey, we advise those with sensitive skin to consider before buying.
e. Ingredients
Water 80.55%, Niacinamide 10.0%, Dipropylene Glycol 4.0%, Glycerin 2.0%, 1,2-Hexanediol 2.0%, Betaine 1.0%, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/ VP Copolymer 0.3%, Xanthan Gum 0.1%, Ethylhexylglycerin 0.05%
I know that when it was first launched, the product contained more ingredients than it does now. After many adjustments, in 2024 and version 1.4, this serum only includes the substances listed above. Analysis from CosDna shows they are very safe.
III. Conclude
65% of customers are satisfied with the product, and the price is very good. I think there is no need to worry when deciding to buy it. There is a small percentage of customers who experience irritation due to sensitive skin, so anyone with this type of skin should consider it carefully. The product is also not suitable if you have eczema.
