Excess Oil and Visible Pores

NTZ20 is the MaryenB formula made for the appearance of excess oil, visible pores, and uneven-looking tone. This is cosmetic care for the look of your skin, not a promise to remove pores.

Read the full formula

Zinc PCA is the zinc salt of PCA (pyrrolidone carboxylic acid). The listed Zinc PCA 2% should not be described as 2% elemental zinc. Niacinamide is also present at lower listed levels in other MaryenB formulas; that does not make them equivalent to NTZ20.

Start gradually

NTZ20 lists Niacinamide 20%. More is not automatically a better fit for your skin. The product instructions say to apply 1–2 pumps to clean, dry skin, starting once daily or 2–3 times per week. Build up only while skin stays comfortable, follow with a moisturizer, and use daytime sunscreen.

Keep the comparison simple

If uneven-looking tone is also a concern, note that NTZ20 already lists Tranexamic Acid 2%. Adding a second new active serum is not required to begin. Introduce one formula first so you can observe your skin response.

Keep skin comfort first

Try it on a small area of skin before first use. Introduce one new serum at a time and keep the rest of your routine simple. Apply to clean, dry skin, then follow with a moisturizer. Use sunscreen during the daytime. Avoid contact with eyes. If your skin feels uncomfortable, stop using it. Do not use an active serum on irritated or compromised skin.
