So I got acne Pimple free clear skin but it’s really dull and doesn’t have any glow.
Which acid is best for glowy skin? Niacinamide glycolic salycylic or hyaluronic? I have no idea so maybe you guys could suggest

From whatever I know, salicylic acid is mostly for acne, clogged pores, whiteheads, blackheads etc so let’s eliminate that one from the list. If you have oily skin and it’s pigmentation is due to sensitivity then niacinamide would be good for you. Retinol also works but it like renews the skin. Vitamin C is also good for pigmentation due to the environment. Now if you have something like sun damage, dark spots, hyper pigmentation then glycolic acid would be better. If you have dry skin that needs moisture then probably hyaluronic acid.
So use what works best for you, sometimes you might need to use two kinds of acid to work properly. But make sure to do your research on whatever combination you are going for before. Also I am not a professional and everything I said is from my personal research.
for serum u must go for brightening serum like vit c, niacinamide and always start from low concentration like vit c 10% bata start and niacinamide works better 5%
but still u should do a research according to your skin type
I use Niacinamide (10% by DermaCo) and Vitamin C (10% by DermaCo). They have both made a huge difference on my skin appearance. Plus, I also use sunscreen (SPF 50) everyday. If you don’t use sunscreen after incorporating active ingredients into your skin regimen, your skin will become even more sensitive to sun exposure. My routine goes like this:
Morning routine:
1. Cleanse with Ceptaphil cleanser
2. Niacinamide serum
3. Vitamin C serum
4. Moisturizer (any moisturizer will do)
5. Sunscreen (Fix Derma SPF 50; you may use sunscreen by any other brand)
Evening routine:
1. Cleanse your face
2. Niacinamide
3. Vitamin C
4. Moisturizer
