BOTH CONTAIN SIMILAR TOP 5 INGREDIENTS (FROM INCIDECODER.COM)
FROM INCIDECODER.COM

GLOSSIER SUPER PURE SERUM

Made in Canada

Claim: Nourishes skin, visibly smoother texture & improved clarity

Plus Points:

  • Lightweight
  • Vegan & Cruelty Free

Price: IDR 475K for 30ml

My thoughts: 

  • Great if you just started on Niacinamide, it contains only 5% Niacinamide. 
  • Won’t pile up, easy to layer with almost anything (skincare & makeup).
  • Expensive, hard to find in Jakarta, Indonesia where I live.

ABSOLUTE NIACINAMIDE

Made in Malaysia

Claim: Visibly improve skin tone, complexion and reduce acne.

Plus Points: 

  • Affordable Price
  • Vegan & Cruelty Free
  • Ecocertified Natural Ingredients
  • Fungal Acne Safe

Price: IDR 159K for 30ml

My thoughts:

  • Recommended for those whose skin are familiar with Niacinamide already, as it contains 12% Niacinamide.
  • It doesn’t file up, but it gets a bit foamy on the first glide. 
  • Same after-feel with Glossier Super Pure serum, you can feel it’s there but not tacky/sticky.
