Which skin concerns is this serum designed to address?

It is designed for visible dark spots, uneven-looking tone and dullness, with care focused on improving the appearance of overall skin clarity.

What does the serum feel like, and does it leave a sticky finish?

It feels lightweight and absorbs quickly, layering without a sticky after-feel when you use the recommended amount. Applying more than 2–3 drops may feel sticky or cause pilling.

How much should I apply, and where does it go in my routine?

After cleansing, apply 2–3 drops evenly over your face and gently pat until absorbed. Leave it on, follow with moisturizer and finish with sunscreen during the day.

Can I use this serum in both my morning and evening routines?

Yes. It can be used in the morning or evening. When you use it during the day, finish your routine with sunscreen.

How should sensitive skin introduce this serum?

Begin with a small amount 2–3 times weekly, then increase the frequency only as your skin adjusts.

Can it be used with vitamin C, retinol, or exfoliating acids?

It can generally be paired with vitamin C, retinol, or AHA/BHA if your skin tolerates the routine. Introduce potentially irritating combinations slowly.

PRODUCT DETAILS

Hello, brighter-looking skin. Vita B3 Source (Snowman) is a limited holiday edition of TIAM’s leave-on brightening serum, presented in a snowman-shaped bottle for a little seasonal spark. Inside, it’s the same trusted Vita B3 Source formula as the regular edition.

With 10% niacinamide and 2% arbutin, the formula is made for visible dark spots, uneven-looking tone and dullness. It helps visibly fade dark spots and improve overall skin clarity, while its niacinamide formula also supports a strong, balanced skin barrier.

The everyday feel is easygoing: lightweight, fast-absorbing and non-sticky when you use the recommended amount. It fits into a morning or evening routine, keeping the finish simple while the snowman bottle brings a soft hint of winter to your shelf.

The Snowman edition is listed as suitable for all skin types, with a slower introduction recommended for sensitive skin. It’s focused brightening care in a familiar formula, wrapped up for the season.
