Here is what you know about the search for a Niacinamide product that is right for you.

Selection

You can find niacinmide in a variety of skin-care products, but there is not enough evidence that brief contact with the skin, such as the face washes or cleanser, leads to a meaningful skin difference-so Nazerian recommends sticking to the products that are left and absorbed on the skin.

Both Nazarian and Chen suggest using a product that does not have a concentration of more than 5 percent niacinamide to reduce the risk of irritation. For most people, this amount should be tolerable. However, some niacinmide serum is more as double in serum, so always read the label.

In addition, take a look that other active ingredients include a niacinmide product. Chen explains that you can often combine niacinmide with alpha hydroxy acid (AHAS). “Ahas exfoliate dead skin cells that make it easier to penetrate effectively for niacinmide,” she says.

Nazerian recommends that other great coupling for niacinmide is included hyaluronic acid (Both materials relieve dryness) and salicylic acid. Salicylic acid treats acne and makes the pores clear, while niacinamide can regulate oil production in the skin and reduce inflammation.

Once you decide on a skin-care product containing niacinmide, it is worth doing a spot test to determine if your skin agrees with this component. Apply a small amount of the product to a small patches of the skin and see for any adverse reaction. “Generally, one can determine if they are sensitive to a product within the first few days of use,” Nazerion says. Do this with any new product, especially if you have sensitive skin and therefore it is more prone to an allergic reaction, she advises.

storage

There is no need to reflect niacinmide. You can keep it in your medicine cabinet or pride.
