What is Dr. Grandel Timeless Niacinamid Serum?
Dr. Grandel Timeless Niacinamid Serum is a 24-hour active serum with 10% niacinamide, from the brand’s Timeless anti-aging line. This listing is the 50 ml cabin pack, the pump dispenser that Dr. Grandel supplies to salons and spas. Its label reads “For professional use only / Not for sale”, because the brand intends it for treatment-room use.
The medium texture suits all skin types. Also, the formula pairs niacinamide with beech bud extract to smooth the skin and encourage its renewal. At the same time, it helps even out the look of pigmentation marks.
Key benefits
- More even-looking tone: niacinamide and a malting barley sprout complex are formulated to reduce the look of pigmentation marks.
- Smoother texture: the serum helps soften the look of fine lines when clients use it daily.
- Supports renewal: Dr. Grandel designed it to stimulate the skin’s natural cell renewal.
- Comfortable feel: shea butter leaves skin feeling soft, so the serum layers easily under cream.
Key ingredients in Dr. Grandel Timeless Niacinamid Serum
Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, sits second in the INCI, right after water. Dr. Grandel states a 10% concentration. The brand notes that it supports the skin’s own regeneration and, unlike retinol, is not sensitive to light.
Fagus sylvatica (beech) bud extract is the Timeless signature active. According to the brand, extract of young beech shoots carries vitamins, minerals and plant polyphenols. In addition, Hordeum vulgare (barley) extract belongs to the malting barley sprout complex, which works together with niacinamide on uneven-looking tone. Finally, shea butter and corn germ oil keep the texture supple. The serum contains fragrance.
How to use Timeless Niacinamid Serum in treatments
- First, cleanse the skin, morning and evening.
- Then dispense five pumps of serum.
- Next, apply it to face, neck and décolleté.
- Finally, follow with a nourishing cream.
In a facial, the serum fits after cleansing and before the finishing cream. Clients can then continue at home with the 30 ml retail bottle.
Who it is for
Dr. Grandel intends this pack for professional use by licensed estheticians. It suits spas that use Timeless in facials or as a back-bar step. The formula works for all skin types, especially for clients concerned with fine lines and uneven-looking tone.
Retail size vs. professional size
This listing is the 50 ml professional cabin pack (article 41898), not the 30 ml retail bottle (article 41899). Because it holds two-thirds more serum, it lowers the cost per treatment on a busy back bar. For a home routine, however, the 30 ml retail bottle is the size Dr. Grandel packages for consumers.
