The effect of niacinamide on the skin
Niacinamide is a real multi-talent. It has both skin-calming and brightening properties. By regulating sebum production, it can combat impurities and enlarged pores. At the same time, it strengthens the skin barrier, provides moisture and reduces redness and irritations. Pigment spots are also diminished over time. And vitamin B3 is also an effective remedy against wrinkles, as it stimulates collagen production.
Who are niacinamide serums suitable for?
Impure and large-pored skin benefits particularly from niacinamide, as it has a regulating effect on sebum production and refines pores. Even with redness and irritated skin, vitamin B3 is the perfect choice thanks to its calming properties. Even sensitive skin usually tolerates niacinamide very well. And those who suffer from pigment disorders can also benefit from the active ingredient.
Our serum recommendations:
Hyaluronic Acid Serum
This serum combines hyaluronic acid and niacinamide for maximum moisture and an even complexion. It reduces impurities, refines pores and brightens pigment spots, while making the skin plump and firm.
Hyaluronic Acid Serum with B5 - Moisturizing Care for Dry Skin
Dry, dehydrated skin needs intensive moisture. This serum provides it thanks to hyaluronic acid and vitamin B5. At the same time, niacinamide ensures an even complexion and prevents irritations.
How to apply niacinamide serums?
Niacinamide serums can be applied in the morning and/or evening after cleansing on still slightly damp skin. Then follow with cream and sunscreen if necessary. It is important to gently pat the serum into the skin rather than just applying it. This way it can be absorbed better.
The optimal concentration in serums is between 2 and 10 percent. Sensitive skin types should start with a lower dosage and slowly increase.
