We have all seen it, products with an extremely high amount of "actives" such as niacinamide, vitamin C, glycolic acid, and any other popular ingredients that are out there. 10% niacinamide, 15% niacinamide, and even 20% niacinamide, does higher equal to better?
The answer to finding the best concentration of skincare products depends on multiple factors. Unfortunately, the majority of the time, a high concentration of certain ingredients does not mean the product is more effective, yet it can have a detrimental effect of causing skin irritation, or other side effects.
3 reasons why chasing high % is the best choice in skincare:
1. Dose-dependent response
2. Formulation Constraints
3. Safety
