What does niacinamide do in skincare?
Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 and one of the most versatile actives in modern skincare. It is mainly used to help support the skin barrier, balance oil and visibly soften the appearance of enlarged pores and an uneven skin tone. As a comparatively well-tolerated active, niacinamide can suit skin that reacts easily or routines that already include other active products. It can be used morning and evening and combines well with most other actives.
How to choose a niacinamide product
The most flexible options are lightweight serums that can be applied after cleansing, before you add a moisturizer. If your skin tends towards shine and visible pores, the Oily Skin & Enlarged Pores collection can be helpful. If a more even complexion is your main goal, the Pigment Spots collection is a useful next step. For very reactive skin, it is also worth looking at the Sensitive Skin collection. Introduce new actives gradually rather than starting several active products at once.
