Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3. It’s used in skincare to help build keratin, a protein that maintains skin health, and contribute to stronger, brighter, smoother skin.
Niacinamide helps even skin tone, reduce redness, regulate sebum production, minimise the appearance of blemishes, and support your skin barrier. It’s suitable for every skin type and a worthy addition to any routine.
After cleansing, apply a few drops of your niacinamide serum to dry skin and follow with the rest of your skincare routine. If you’re using a niacinamide-infused cream, such as Naturium’s Niacinamide Gel Cream, use it instead of your regular moisturiser.
Yes, you can use niacinamide and retinol in the same skincare routine. Niacinamide can help support your skin barrier and reduce irritation, so it’s beneficial to use them together.
Yes, niacinamide has been shown to help reduce the appearance of acne. It works by calming inflammation and redness while also regulating excess oil production. The Ordinary niacinamide serum comes with an additional blemish-busting boost with 1% zinc, which helps repair damaged skin and heal blemishes even faster.
If you have sensitive or reactive skin, you might begin with a 5% niacinamide formula, such as Naturium's Niacinamide Gel Cream 5%. If you've used niacinamide for a while or you're looking for more advanced results, opt for a 10% niacinamide formula, like 10% Paula's Choice Niacinamide Booster.
