Overview

Niacinamide is regarded as one of the top skincare treatment ingredients. It minimizes and tightens enlarged skin pores, strengthens the skin's natural protective layer, and helps balance oil production. In addition, it improves uneven skin tone, reduces skin redness, and diminishes skin dullness. Applying niacinamide around the eyes reduces the appearance of under-eye dark circles and wrinkles on the sides of the eyes (crow's feet). Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive or rosacea-prone skin.

Size: 1.0 oz each

How to Use

Your questions, answered

What is the MDacne Active Moisturizer and what does it do?

MDacne Active Moisturizer is an oil-free moisturizer built around niacinamide 2.0%, a form of vitamin B3. Niacinamide strengthens the skin's protective layer, helps balance oil production, and reduces the look of enlarged pores, redness, and uneven tone. The formula suits all skin types.

Is MDacne Active Moisturizer better than a plain niacinamide hydrator?

MDacne Active Moisturizer carries niacinamide at 2.0%, high enough to work on oil balance, pore appearance, and dullness while still being well tolerated. A plain hydrator only adds water. The base is oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it will not clog pores.

MDacne Active Moisturizer or Soothing Moisturizer for oily skin and pores?

MDacne Active Moisturizer is the one to choose for oily skin and enlarged pores, since its niacinamide 2.0% helps balance sebum and the base is lighter. MDacne Soothing Moisturizer is the better pick when your main problem is dryness, stinging, or redness.

How long does MDacne Active Moisturizer niacinamide take to show results?

MDacne Active Moisturizer usually leaves skin feeling less oily and looking less red within one to two weeks. Pore appearance and uneven tone improve gradually over eight to twelve weeks. Niacinamide works cumulatively, so daily use matters more than the amount you apply.

How do you use the MDacne Active Moisturizer in the morning?

MDacne Active Moisturizer goes on cleansed skin each morning in a generous amount, with sunscreen layered on top before you go outside. You can also use it around the eyes, where niacinamide helps with dark circles and fine lines.

Who should not use the MDacne Active Moisturizer?

MDacne Active Moisturizer is best for oily skin with enlarged pores and is also suitable for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin, being vegan and free of parabens and phthalates. Skip it if you have reacted to niacinamide before. A brief flush on application settles within minutes.

Excellent quality🙂
The trial shipment of MD Acne arrived quickly. I was looking for an alternative to using Differin or Retin-A again. The MD Acne face wash is excellent quality and smells great. The 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne treatment works and is also excellent quality. I have not tried the niacinamide moisturizer yet. I have been using the MD Acne trial kit for a week and my complexion is improving. Thank you, MD Acne!

So Far So Good
I'm enjoying MDacne so far- I've been using my suggested products for 2-3 weeks now and have definitely already noticed a reduction in my mild-moderate acne, particularly around my time of the month which is when it's usually worst. I hope that if I keep up with it over the next few weeks/months I will continue to see improvement. The ingredients for these products aren't groundbreaking, they are tried and true basics- for my kit I was recommended salicylic acid and niacinamide products. I still think this is a good deal because the cost for the amount of products I'm getting and the % of active ingredients in each product is quality. I'm going to stick with this routine and hope I see continued improvement!

We'll see what happens
It's too soon to tell because I started using the product a few days ago. However, I will say that I like how the products feel on my skin. I have the cleanser, benzoyl peroxide, and niacinamide. I was surprised at how small the products were, almost like the sample size (probably why I only paid for shipping). If future shipments are the same size, I will discontinue them. We'll see what happens.

Worst service ever
Worst service ever. The olny thing I wanted was to get rid of my acne but what I got in return is a ruined face with hairs growing on. And the most fantastic thing about them is they don’t take returns. Wow. I had mistakenly did 3 shipping at once and just wanted to return them because the team was suggesting me new products every time I talked to them about the problem. They had changed my moisturizer from active to soothing because the active one cause burning sensation. So wanted to return those mistakly bought items and fortunately couldn’t. So I thought of using the ordered items as I had paid for them. Now I realized that the package had 2 active moisturizers one in each package. Omg. How could you do that? You guys suggested me the soothing one because I was in pain and now you had send me the same thing and of course I could not return them. When I told them that I have been getting hairs on my face and if they could suggest anything. Yes, they suggested me to visit a physician. Man, If I was to visit a physician why would I use your products. Someone has been trying your products expecting at least acne free face and you guys just care about money. If your customer has subscribed and the next shipping date is fixed, you are happy. If they unsubscribe but still want some suggestions, you are lost, found nowhere? I regret for using these products. Apart from acne at least I had hair free skin and no any dark spots or any marks. Now, I have been gifted with all of those. I have a lot more to say but don’t want to cause everytime I remember it, I get frustrated and want to go back to time and correct everything and never use Md Acne. Thank you so much for making my skin worst. I really appreciate it. I hope you get more customers with positive reviews.
