Niacinamide Description

Vitamin B3, more commonly listed as niacinamide (or sometimes nicotinamide), is valued for its wide ranging effects on skin appearance and function. Used consistently, it can make pores look smaller, even out a dull or uneven complexion, and reinforce the skin's barrier.

Part of how it works is through antioxidant activity. Niacinamide helps visibly repair the damage UV rays leave behind and defends against other everyday stressors like air pollution. It also encourages the skin to produce more of its own ceramides, the fatty compounds that hold moisture in and keep the barrier intact, which translates into less water loss and dehydration over time. Clinical research also links it to a measurable reduction in wrinkle depth.

From a formulation standpoint, niacinamide is water soluble and holds up well when exposed to heat or light, and it can start delivering visible benefits at concentrations as low as 0.2%.
