Like many other vitamins, it\u2019s pretty darn great for the skin because it works <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">with<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the natural proteins in the skin, strengthening them.

Yep, even sensitive and rosacea-prone skin. It also works extremely well with any of the other products in your routine (retinol, antioxidants, the lot). Because of this, you can use multiple products containing niacinamide in your daily routine without risking irritation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>It\u2019s great for dry skin<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We\u2019re always on the hunt for ingredients that work for dry and sensitive skin. Niacinamide is just that &#8211; it helps protect against moisture loss by improving the natural production of ceramides. Look for moisturisers containing niacinamide and apply topically to any irritating dry patches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>It protects against damage from free radicals (like pollution)\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Niacinamide is also a powerful antioxidant meaning it has the ability to neutralise free radicals and protect the skin from the damage they cause. This includes premature ageing, hyperpigmentation, inflammatory conditions such as eczema and acne, and even skin cancers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>It helps to reduce the appearance of pores<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This one\u2019s a bit of a mystery when it comes to how it manages such a thing. What we do know is that it helps to prevent debris from clogging and stretching the pores. Not only that though, it visibly tightens existing enlarged pores. We\u2019re not complaining.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\">\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766159111572\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is niacinamide and how does it help your skin?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that strengthens your skin&#8217;s natural proteins.
