Incorporate this potent vitamin into your serums, moisturizers, and more for visibly smoother, calmer, and more luminous skin. Benefits of Niacinamide Strengthens Skin Barrier Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) strengthens the skin barrier through several key mechanisms at a cellular level. It doesn't just create a physical film on the surface; it actively encourages the skin to build a stronger and more resilient barrier from within. Minimizes Pore Appearances Niacinamide doesn't physically shrink pores, but significantly minimizes their appearance. Niacinamide works to improve the overall health and structure of the skin surrounding the pores, making them appear smaller and less visible rather than physically shrinking them. Reduces Redness and Inflammation Niacinamide reduces redness and inflammation through a comprehensive approach at the cellular level. It hinders the production and release of pro-inflammatory signaling molecules (cytokines) within the skin. It also helps reduce inflammation by interfering with the NF-kB pathway, a key signaling mechanism that triggers the production of inflammatory substances in the skin. Regulates Oil Production Studies have shown that niacinamide can directly inhibit the activity of sebocytes, the cells in the skin's sebaceous glands that product sebum. It can influence enzymes and pathways involved in lipid synthesis within these cells, leading to a reduction in the overall amount of sebum produced.
