Have you heard all the buzz going around about using niacinamide in skincare routines for acne-prone skin?
Niacinamide is an ingredient that is worth the hype.
The benefits of niacinamide in skincare
Skin Supporting Niacinamide …
- is an active form of vitamin B3
- is pH balanced and non-irritating
- is antimicrobial so it balances acne-causing bacteria
- is anti-inflammatory so calms active acne breakouts
- has proven to be as effective as topical antibiotics for acne without the risk of bacterial resistance
- is gentle unlike retinoids and benzoyl peroxide
- has proven to balance oily skin and it doesn’t just mop up excess oil, it slows down how much sebum is released after about 4 weeks of continued use
- strengthens sensitive skin by restoring the skin’s natural barrier function (compromised lipid barrier? Get some niacinamide in your routine!)
- fights against dehydration
- fights free radicals (aka it’s an “anti-aging” ingredient)
- prevents oxidative stress (aka it’s an anti-pollution skincare ingredient)
- has proven to fade pigmentation including acne scars and post-acne spots
- helps calm down redness for acne-prone skin
- helps keep collagen flexible, which helps reduce fine lines – something acne-prone skin is often prone to due to dehydration or damage from past breakouts.
