Niacinamide, also known as nicotinamide or niacin, is one of the major forms of vitamin B3, an essential vitamin required by the human body to maintain good health.
Niacinamide has many beneficial properties for the skin and can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also helps with visibly evening skin’s tone and reducing pore appearance.
Niacinamide has been shown to have anti-aging effects and can prevent moisture loss, protecting skin from environmental damage. A study published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science showed that niacinamide could significantly improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation, spots, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Niacinamide is an anti-aging ingredient since it boosts the skin’s moisture barrier function. This can help prevent transepidermal water loss and boost natural ceramides and fatty acids within the skin. To benefit from these properties, you can try Cetaphil’s Healthy Radiance Renewing Cream for dull or uneven, sensitive skin. The lightweight souffle texture is boosted with niacinamide to help improve the skin’s resilience while visibly reducing the appearance of dark spots and pigmentation.
Niacinamide helps improve skin pore appearance and can therefore be beneficial in oily skin types.
