What is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide, also known as nicotinamide or Vitamin B3, is a water-soluble vitamin that minimises enlarged pores, tightens lax pores, improves uneven skin tone, softens fine lines, and strengthens the skin barrier. It is one of the most well-researched skincare ingredients with a strong safety profile for all skin types.
