Niacinamide is also known as vitamin B3. It is one of the most essential nutrients for the skin. Applying the niacinamide topically will treat many skin-related disorders especially acne and eczema. It is an efficient anti-inflammatory agent which may help ease redness caused by eczema, acne, and other inflammatory skin conditions. Other than this it also provides many other benefits to the skin.
Provide immunity: Niacinamide promotes the keratin building in the skin cells which is a type of protein that keeps your skin healthy and firm.
Lipid barrier: Niacinamide also helps your skin to grow a lipid barrier which in return helps to retain moisture. The process is beneficial for all skin types especially skin with acne or eczema.
Minimize pore appearance: When the skin remains smooth and moisturized for a long time then the size of the pores also reduces over time.
Regulates oil: Niacinamide regulates the amount of oil produced by our sebaceous glands.
Treats hyperpigmentation: According to clinical research, 5% niacinamide concentration helps lighten the dark spots. The results were observed after its usage for 2 weeks.
Protects the skin against oxidative stress: Niacinamide helps skin cells to improve their overall health. This prepares them to fight against environmental conditions.
