Niacid+

Description

Niacinamide is indicated to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes and congestion while helping skin retain moisture. This correcting cream or gel is combined with Salicylic Acid (BHA) and Glycolic Acid (AHA) to aid in flawless, clear, youthful skin.

Results within 3 to 4 weeks

Glycolic acid is a colorless, odorless alpha-hydroxy-acid (AHA) derived from sugarcane. It’s a type of chemical exfoliant that dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to be wiped away easily, revealing smooth, younger skin below.

Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid. It’s well-known for reducing acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping pores clear.

Lipid barrier Niacinamide can help your skin grow a ceramide (lipid) barrier, which can, in turn, helps retain moisture. This is beneficial for all skin types, especially if you have eczema or mature skin.

Minimizes redness and blotchiness. Niacinamide reduces inflammation, which may help ease redness from eczema, acne, and other inflammatory skin conditions.

Minimizes pore appearance. Keeping skin smooth and moisturized may have a secondary benefit — a natural reduction in pore size over time.

Regulates oil The benefits of moisture retention aren’t just for those with dry skin types. Niacinamide can also help regulate the amount of oil the sebaceous glands produce and prevent your glands from going into overdrive.

Protects against sun damage. Niacinamide can concurrently rebuild healthy skin cells while also protecting them from damage caused by ultraviolet rays.

Treats hyperpigmentation. Some research has found 5 percent of niacinamide concentrations can help lighten dark spots. Benefits were seen after four weeks, but not beyond two months. This benefit may be due to increased collagen production.

Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles. Research has also found that the same concentration helped reduce some signs of sun damage that come with aging. This includes fine lines and wrinkles.
