No matter your skin type—oily, dry, combination, or sensitive—niacinamide is a powerhouse ingredient that can fit seamlessly into any skincare routine. It effectively addresses multiple concerns without causing irritation. Let’s take a closer look at why niacinamide is a must-have for every skincare enthusiast!
What is niacinamide?
Niacinamide is a water-soluble form of Vitamin B3—it is gentle enough for daily use and powerful enough to deliver transformative results. This multi-tasking ingredient works to improve the skin's barrier function, increase hydration, and address a variety of skin concerns including improving skin texture, targeting acne and rosacea, brightening dark spots and treating general skin irritation.
Why niacinamide deserves a spot in your routine…
Niacinamide helps balance oil production by regulating sebum levels, making it ideal for those with oily or combination skin. By controlling excess oil, it prevents clogged pores, which can lead to breakouts and enlarged pores. Over time, this regulation results in a smoother and more refined complexion with less noticeable pores.
How to incorporate Niacinamide into your routine.
Start by choosing a product that contains a concentration of 5% to 10% niacinamide, this can be a serum or moisturiser.
Apply it after cleansing and toning your skin, but before heavier creams or oils.
Use it once or twice daily, ideally in the morning and evening, for optimal results.
If you're using other active ingredients, such as vitamin C or retinol, introduce them gradually to avoid irritation.
Always follow up with sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.
