Best Used With:
For optimal results, consider incorporating niacinamide with other complementary ingredients:
- Hyaluronic Acid: This duo works wonders! Niacinamide strengthens the skin barrier, allowing hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and plump the skin.
- Antioxidants: Niacinamide's antioxidant properties are enhanced when combined with other antioxidants like Vitamin C or E, providing additional protection against free radical damage.
- Soothing Ingredients: For those with sensitive skin, pairing niacinamide with calming ingredients like centella asiatica or allantoin can help minimize irritation.
Frequently Asked Questions

generally well-tolerated by most skin types. However, it's always recommended
to do a patch test before incorporating any new ingredient into your routine.
Studies suggest that concentrations between
3-5% are effective for most concerns. However, higher concentrations (up to
10%) might be more beneficial for specific issues like severe acne.
In some cases, purging (temporary breakouts)
might occur as the skin adjusts to niacinamide. This typically resolves within
a few weeks.
While individual results may vary, most
