B-Bomb is non-drying and has a light, hydrating feel to it. We paid special attention to the texture of the product, so that it integrates well into routines with multiple layers. It has a thin gel consistency that does not pill and plays well with the other products in a well-rounded skincare routine.

Who Is It For?

Pretty much anyone who is looking to add Niacinamide to their skincare routine. It is especially recommended for combination and oily skin.

  • Skin type: all skin types, ideal for combination, oily skin
  • Skin problem: oiliness, enlarged pores, blemishes
  • Texture: thin gel consistency, layers well with other products

How To Use

Apply a few drops to the face after cleansing (+ toning and exfoliating), but before using emulsions and/or creams. Can be used either in the AM and/or PM.

It can be used on its own, or you can add it to another product as a Niacinamide Booster e.g. your moisturizer or our HA 5 Serums - just put a few drops of each into your palm or apply a few drops of them directly to your face at the same time and pat them on together. Please do not add B-Bomb directly to acids, such as exfoliating acids or pure Vitamin C - you can use them in the same routine together layered on top of each other, but they don't mix well directly (e.g. in your palm).  

Shelf life: 2 years from production (unopened), 6 months PAO (period after opening)

Niacinamide (10%) – A multi-functional superstar that can normalize pores, soothe acne prone skin, improve the skin barrier and lighten hyperpigmentation.

Zinc PCA – A combination of antibacterial and sebum normalizing Zinc with the humectant molecule found in the skin called PCA (stands for pyrrolidone carboxylic acid). Zinc PCA has the property of both, meaning it is a gentle, non-drying ingredient known to help acne-prone and oily skin.

Sarcosine – An amino-acid derived ingredient that works as a so called 5α-reductase inhibitor helping to normalize oil-production and pore size.

    This peptide serum is awesome and affordable! I get so many compliments on my skin and I’m 50 years old! I never got compliments when I was younger! Lol I love every product I’ve tried from Nuxast

  • Good!!!

    This is a really nice serum, non-irritating, and non-drying to my sensitive and dry skin. It’s great on it’s own when I don’t want a thick moisturizer, but it’s also great under that thick moisturizer. I am pleased with it.

  • Amazing

    Wow. I have dermatitis,sensitive,reactive, acne prone skin and this serum is so gentle going on. I have no negative effects at all. I have tried other brands with copper peptides and I always get itching or acne. I am happy with the results so far. It definitely is smoothing and my skin feels so plump. It almost feels soothing with its milky texture. I am so impressed. I look forward to the long term effects in the anti aging process. I am confident it will be a staple. Thank you for making this formula.

  • So far Great!

    So far so great only been using about 3 weeks now leaves skin feeling soft no irritation with my sensitive skin. I use this peptide serum at night and use the Naturium peptide serum in the mornings which I’ve been using for over a year now. Both of which TikTok influenced me to try for the benefits of Copper peptides. So far loving both! I do wish the geek and gorgeous one also had the argireline in it but still an awesome serum at a great price!

  • Smooth. Milky

    I really like this. I like that I can get it close to my undereye bc it’s smooth and doesn’t irritate. Makes skin smooth.

  • Peptides here we go

    I used this serum for 4 weeks now alongside the C-bomb in the morning and my Tretinoin in the evening. It is a light weight milky texture and a little goes a long way. And yes, don't forget the neck and dekolleté while you are at it.
    Definitly will keep it in my routine.

  • A holy grail

    Love this serum. After about 5 weeks there was a visible improvement in smoothness and plumpness, and wrinkles are less visible. It's really gentle, no irritation whatsoever. I'm on my third bottle with 3 more waiting in my cabinet.
