Cerave Vitamin C Serum vs The Ordinary Niacinamide

I do like the packaging/\s/too since it is in a opaque container and it just/\s/ has a little bit of an opening to pour out the/\s/product but it's no...

I live in South East Asia, where the climate is hot and super humid like 95% of the time. My skin-type would probably be oily-to-combination, most oily in the t-zone and slightly acne-prone.

Not super pricey but definitely overhyped- all of the cerave products I've tried. The sunscreen moisturizer was a horribly thick texture that refused to smooth down and left an incredibly noticeable white caste, also broke me out. Cerave moisturizer cream- not bad but broke me out. Cerave vitamin c serum- overall meh, it tends to pill and the packaging is weird and I don't think it seals all the way (vitamin c is suuuper unstable so I question the viability of the product)

* I later read in comments here and on the brand website that most people use 1-3 drops. 1-3 drops. Remember this. At first, everything seemed great! The product went on smoothly, dried quickly, no stinging or redness, and immediately I noticed that my face seemed less oily
