Product details

Niacinamide is delightfully lightweight, supremely nourishing, and is potent enough to transform your skin miraculously. It is made synthetically and is then bio catalytically hydrolysed to form the niacinamide that is found in cosmetics.

INCI name- Niacinamide

Why you need it -

  • Popularly used for its pore minimising benefits, it is found in makeup primers, skincare serums, and pharmaceutical grade gels, lotions, and shampoos.
  • The acne-killing mechanism of niacin kills acne and subsequently prevents acne marks and pigmentation.
  • It calms redness and soothes the skin to provide instant relief from inflammation.
  • When added to overnight treatment products, it works effectively at lightening skin and strengthening the epidermal layer.
  • It helps intercept bacterial growth and is therefore added to shampoos to improve the overall health of the hair.
  • Its gentleness merits its use in teenagers' skin and hair care regimes.

CONCENTRATION AND SOLUBILITY-

  • It is soluble in water and insoluble in oils.
  • Its recommended usage ranges from 1% to 10% depending on the formulation.

Process of using -
