Niacinamide works to strengthen the skin's barrier, improving its ability to retain moisture and protect against environmental stress. It’s perfect for those looking to soothe inflammation, balance oily skin, and reduce hyperpigmentation.

Niacinamide in Skincare FAQs

What does niacinamide do?

Niacinamide helps strengthen the skin barrier, regulate oil, and improve uneven tone. It is generally well tolerated and suitable for most skin types.

Can you use niacinamide with retinol?

Niacinamide can be used alongside retinol. It helps calm skin and support the barrier. This pairing often reduces irritation.

Can I use niacinamide with Vitamin C?

Niacinamide and vitamin C can be used together in modern formulations. They support barrier health and brightness, though introducing them gradually helps minimise sensitivity.

Does niacinamide help acne?

Niacinamide helps acne by regulating oil production, reducing inflammation, and supporting the skin barrier. It can improve breakouts and redness when used consistently in acne-prone routines.

Is niacinamide an active?

Niacinamide is considered an active ingredient in skincare. It supports oil balance, barrier strength, and even tone while remaining well tolerated by most skin types.

Can niacinamide cause breakouts?

Niacinamide does not usually cause breakouts, but reactions can occur if overused. Introducing it slowly and using appropriate concentrations helps minimise irritation and reduces the chance of congestion in acne-prone or sensitive skin types specifically.
