Niacinamide is an essential nutrient, meaning that the body cannot produce it on its own, and it must be obtained through diet or topical applications. A niacinamide-rich diet would include meat, fish, dairy products, nuts, and\/or grains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Green says that anyone who risks having dehydrated skin should absolutely seek out niacinamide, though its universality suits all types; again, there\u2019s only good to be found. Though Green does offer this warning: \u201cAs with any skincare ingredient, overusing or using high concentrations of niacinamide can lead to skin irritation.\u201d But worry not: Pretty much all name-brand concentrations of niacinamide will offer you a safe amount. (Anything under 5% will be fine for most people, and few products will get as high as that marker.) Niacinamide can be used morning and night, Green adds, largely since it pairs so well with other ingredients and won\u2019t be compromised by other active ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Niacinamide Benefits for Skin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Improves skin barrier function<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It enhances the skin barrier, helping to retain moisture and prevent water loss. While this is especially beneficial for individuals with dry or dehydrated skin, all people should prioritize a reinforced skin barrier, as it prolongs skin\u2019s suppleness, firmness, and ability to defend against toxins in the environment around us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Anti-aging properties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Niacinamide helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen synthesis in the skin. Collagen production naturally decreases as we age, so this boost can prolong skin elasticity and boost skin suppleness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Reduces hyperpigmentation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Niacinamide has been shown to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, including dark spots, sun spots, and uneven skin tone. It inhibits the production of melanin as well, which prevents additional hyperpigmentation from occurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Anti-inflammatory properties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This hero ingredient can help calm redness, irritation, and inflammation, making it suitable for individuals with sensitive or rosacea-prone skin. For any face shavers out there, it\u2019s a terrific addition to a post-shave regimen, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Balances oil production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Niacinamide is one of the primary actives that can regulate sebum production in the pores, making it beneficial for anyone with oily or acne-prone skin. By balancing oil production, it can contribute to a clearer complexion and reduce forehead shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:12px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Minimizes pore appearance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Consistent use of niacinamide can help reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, leading to a smoother-looking skin texture. (Niacinamide is often called a \u201csoother\u201d and \u201csmoother\u201d for this property, paired with its anti-inflammatory ones.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Protects against environmental damage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing with the long list of benefits, niacinamide has also been found to have antioxidant properties, meaning it helps protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and environmental stressors. This can be everything from city pollution, UV rays, blue light exposure, and it can even inhibit the effects of stress on one\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Highly compatible with other skincare ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Echoing an earlier sentiment, one reason niacinamide is so universal is because it is so easily incorporated into various skincare routines thanks to its compatibility with a wide range of other active ingredients, such as retinoids, Vitamin C, beta hydroxy acids, and alpha hydroxy acids. Those ingredients in particular can be volatile when paired together or matched with other ingredients, but niacinamide plays nicely with them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Works for most people<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There isn\u2019t much fine print when it comes to who can benefit from niacinamide. It is so well tolerated by most skin types. Again, it\u2019s only a risk in higher concentrations, but most brands will alert users of this concentration, since it tends to be an intentional choice (like if someone wants a high-grade niacinamide treatment for some reason). But usually, niacinamide is found in manageable, safe concentrations. Still, it\u2019s best to err under 5%, if you are otherwise usually sensitive to things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover Custom Skincare<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find <a href=\"https:\/\/prose.com\/ingredients\/niacinamide\">niacinamide<\/a> in certain custom Cleanser and Moisturizer formulas to help with signs of aging, blemishes, and much more.
