Niacinamide For Acne

The Benefits of Niacinamide for Skin

It’s hard to imagine that this vitamin B3 has time to deal with acne when it’s already working hard to improve hydration, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and the signs of aging, minimize pores and fade hyperpigmentation. That’s before we even get into niacinamide’s starring role – strengthening the skin’s lipid barrier to defend against pollutants that clog the skin, while locking in much-needed moisture to leave your skin plumped-up, dewy and smooth.

Niacinamide for acne prone skin

It's easy to see why Niacinamide is called skincare’s mega multi-tasker and part of so many people's skincare routine, but how does niacinamide work as an acne treatment? The use of topical niacinamide to treat acne brings a number of benefits to help with the most common skin concerns associated with acne and blemishes.

Helps combat oily skin

First, it’s a powerhouse in regulating oil (sebum) production. Too much oil can clog pores and lead to acne. Niacinamide serums help prevent oily skin by stopping oil production from going into overdrive, which in turn helps prevent blemishes from appearing in the first place. It’s a game-changer when it comes to improving skin clarity over time.

Strengthen your skin barrier

Niacinamide treatments strengthen the skin’s lipid barrier. A strong skin barrier acts like a shield to prevent fewer environmental pollutants and toxins from penetrating the skin. This better protects your skin against inflammation, sensitivity and clogged pores that can lead to acne.

Reduce acne breakouts

The bacteria-fighting properties are incredibly effective in unclogging pores and reducing acne lesions and blemishes.

Anti-inflammatory properties

One of the major causes of acne is inflammation. Niacinamide helps reduce the swelling and redness of acne and can lead to fewer blemishes over time.

Reduces skin discoloration

Niacinamide acne treatment works wonders on hyperpigmentation. It reduces the transfer of melanin from pigment cells to your skin cells, which is not only helpful for skin conditions like melasma, it’s also super powerful in fading and evening out acne scars.

Which skin types will benefit from niacinamide?

This wonder vitamin is suitable for pretty much every skin type and age. Because Niacinamide is so gentle on the skin, it’s ideal for those with sensitive skin and a great pre-treatment to help you tolerate more potent actives like salicylic acid or glycolic acid, in the treatment of acne.
