B-Bomb 10% Niacinamide + Zinc Serum

What makes this product unique?

Niacinamide needs no introduction. A multifunctional, bioavailable amide form of vitamin B3, studies proof that Niacinamide transforms the look of uneven hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the transfer of melanosomes to the skin surface, stretched pores, orange-peel texture, breakouts and rough bumps.

But not all Niacinamide serums are created equal. Topical absorption of Niacinamide plays an important role in determining if your skin could experience the many benefits of Niacinamide mentioned above. 

Realizing that not all Niacinamide serums work the same, Geek & Gorgeous formulated B-Bomb, a seriously clever concoction of 10% Niacinamide with Zinc PCA and most interestingly, Sarcosine. Sarcosine dramatically enhances the penetration of other ingredients. Research also shows that Sarcosine carries oil-controlling ability and diminishes UV damage, so this amino acid derivative has been widely included in many sunscreen formulations.

Teaming up with penetration enhancing glycols, Sarcosine ensures maximum absorption of Niacinamide and Zinc PCA. The real results of smoothing a few powerful drops of Niacinamide serum on skin speak for themselves with Geek & Gorgeous B-Bomb.

All Geek & Gorgeous products are fragrance free, alcohol free and never tested on animals.

What does it do?

Uniquely formulated with absorption-helper, Sarcosine, Geek & Gorgeous B-Bomb delivers paramount Niacinamide that gets to the root cause of imperfections, effectively eradicating concerns with pore size, blemishes, excessive oiliness, roughness, uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation, for overall healthier, radiant and more resilient skin.
