Niacinamide
Niacinamide is a multitasking form of vitamin B3 that helps balance excess oil, calm visible redness, strengthen the skin barrier, and improve uneven-looking tone and texture. Gentle enough for daily use, it supports clearer, smoother, and more resilient-looking skin.
What Is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide is a water-soluble form of vitamin B3 widely used in skincare for its ability to support the skin barrier, improve visible tone and texture, and help maintain balanced-looking skin.
It is a versatile ingredient suitable for nearly every skin type, including dry, oily, sensitive, combination, and mature-looking skin. Unlike some stronger active ingredients, Niacinamide is generally gentle and can be used consistently in both morning and evening routines.
Niacinamide supports several essential skin functions at once, making it a valuable ingredient for hydration, clarity, resilience, and overall skin health.
What Does Niacinamide Do for Skin?
Niacinamide offers multiple benefits for the appearance and function of the skin.
Strengthens the skin barrier
Niacinamide supports the skin’s natural production of ceramides and other essential lipids. This helps reinforce the protective barrier and reduce moisture loss.
Helps balance excess oil
It can help regulate the appearance of excess sebum, making it especially useful for oily and combination skin.
Calms visible redness
Niacinamide helps soothe stressed-looking skin and reduce the appearance of redness associated with dryness, sensitivity, or environmental exposure.
Improves uneven-looking skin tone
With consistent use, Niacinamide can help reduce the appearance of discoloration, dullness, and post-breakout marks.
Smooths visible texture
It helps improve the look of roughness, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture, leaving the complexion looking more refined.
Supports hydration
By strengthening the skin barrier, Niacinamide helps the skin retain moisture more effectively and maintain lasting comfort.
Protects against environmental stress
Niacinamide supports the skin’s natural defenses against everyday environmental factors that can contribute to dullness and premature visible aging.
