Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

Niacinamide is a water soluble B3 vitamin and a pioneering ingredient in skin and haircare products. It comes in a white, odourless crystallised powder.

Niacinamide has a remarkably wide range of properties and treats many skin problems, which has earned it official recognition by dermatologists. When used in skincare products, Niacinamide strengths the skin’s hydrolipid barrier which prevents dehydration. It reduces the impact of harmful environmental factors and has an anti-ageing effect.

As it is non-comedogenic it is suitable for normal, combination, oily and sensitive skin types.
