The Ordinary - Niacinamide itches when applying. Help!
Post Body

I started incorporating Niacinamide from The Ordinary in my skincare routine and it causes my skin to itch as well as redness. Is this normal?

Has anyone continued to use it and noticed the itching goes away after a while?

Any recommendations on other brands that aren’t as strong?

I love how my skin looks the next day but I can’t get past the itching although it does subside 5-10 mins after applying.

Currently my routine looks like this (I alternate my nighttime routine)-

Morning:

Wash my face with water

The Ordinary - Soothing & Barrier Support Serum

The Ordinary - Natural Moisturizing Factors

elf invisible Sunscreen

Nighttime 1 -

The Ordinary - Face wash

The Ordinary - Glycolic Acid

Advanced Snail 96 Mucin

The Ordinary - Hyaluronic Acid

The Ordinary - Niacinamide

The Ordinary - Natural Moisturizing Factors

Nighttime 2:

The Ordinary - Face wash

Advanced Snail 96 Mucin

The Ordinary - Hyaluronic Acid

The Ordinary - Retinol 0.5%

The Ordinary - Natural Moisturizing Factors
