Smooth, even out skin plus a major boost of antioxidants and moisturizers are among the benefits of niacinamide skincare.
Many dermatologists and skin care experts recommend niacinamide because of its many skin benefits*. It supports your skin’s natural barrier against environmental aggressors. It can help to minimize and tighten pores, soften the look of/appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and give you the appearance of smoother, more toned, more hydrated skin.
When adding niacinamide to your skincare routine, it is most effective in a product that is going to be left on your skin* such as sunscreens, moisturizers, and serums. Because of all the skin concerns that niacinamide can help with, you should use it on a daily basis, but always follow the product’s instructions on the back of the packaging.
As with many skincare ingredients, niacinamide can take several weeks to have noticeable results. You should use it topically (on your skin) morning and night to see the most improvement. Try taking a selfie each week to document your skin’s progress as you, uneven skin tone, and fine lines visually diminish. Don’t give up after one week. Keep at it and you’ll have skin that looks smoother, healthier, and more toned.
Niacinamide works well with most skincare actives. It’s antioxidant that you can use with ingredients* like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). Niacinamide pairs well with retinoids. Retinoids have been known to dry out your skin and potentially make it more sensitive. Niacinamide has moisturizing properties which allow you to get the anti-aging benefits, but with minimal irritation.
Many dermatologists and skin care experts recommend using niacinamide in a product that is left on your skin*, such as a moisturizer or serum.
