All About Niacinamide by Sarah Healy All About NiacinamideIf you look at the list of ingredients in the Skin Regeneration Set, you'll notice that the Night Cream contains niacinamide. It’s a common skincare ingredient that you can find in drugstore products, medical-grade treatments, high-end luxury brands, and everything in between. A quick Google search will tell you niacinamide can help treat acne and rosacea, smooth skin texture, balance an oil production, calm hyperpigmentation, and more. It is possible that niacinamide is a miracle ingredient that will solve all of your skin woes? Well, while no product is magic in a bottle, this special ingredient may be the closest thing out there. We're here to break down what niacinamide can do for your skin and we at Musely are such big fans! Niacinamide is an ingredient you want in any anti-aging product. Dermatologists love it for smoother, brighter, and younger skin, and you can find it in plenty of skincare products from moisturizers to serums. Niacinamide was added to the Face-Rx treatment's Night Cream to work with tretinoin to reduce signs of aging, as well as ease any of the side effects you might experience when using tretinoin. Niacinamide is a form of niacin, a.k.a. vitamin B3 and it's a combo of vitamin B3 and nicotinic acid. In the body, vitamin B3 supports your metabolism and helps your body function properly (from lowering your bad cholesterol levels to removing toxins from the liver). But when it comes to your skin, niacinamide is a powerful anti-inflammatory. If you have red, irritated, or blotchy skin, niacinamide can help calm your complexion. This soothing ingredient works on sensitive skin in general or if you have acne or rosacea. For those who want to reduce signs of aging, niacinamide is a great ingredient for you. It helps repair the skin barrier and keeps your skin more hydrated. The more moisture in your skin, the plumper, brighter, and smoother it appears. Niacinamide can also help brighten a dull complexion, even out discoloration, and smooth uneven texture on the skin. Perhaps the best thing about niacinamide is that it goes well with other common skincare ingredients, making it super easy to add to your routine without having to worry about a bad reaction from it mixing with something else you're already using. In the Face Rx treatment's Night Cream, niacinamide is combined with tretinoin and hyaluronic acid to treat visible signs of aging, brighten, and hydrate the skin.
