Better known as Vitamin B3, niacinamide is an active ingredient recognized for its multiple actions; it helps reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, evens out skin tone, soothes redness, restores radiance to the skin while smoothing fine lines. This active ingredient is therefore particularly indicated for skin that shows inflammation, some imperfections or a lack of radiance.
One of its main roles is also to strengthen the skin barrier by stimulating the production of ceramides (lipids essential to the skin). It thus acts against skin aging because a deficiency in ceramides can dry out the skin and deepen wrinkles and fine lines even more.
What are the benefits of niacinamide for the skin?
The soothing, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of niacinamide make it possible to act upstream on the prevention of marks linked to hyperpigmentation. By boosting the skin's natural protection, niacinamide also reduces the impact of the effects of pollution. With daily application, stains and imperfections fade. The complexion is instantly more even, luminous and the skin texture is clearer.
