VITAMIN B3 - NICOTINIC ACID (NIACINAMIDE):

Niacinamide works to improve the circulation of blood in your body, which in turn helps to relieve tiredness and regenerate skin - perfect for a fresh and energized complexion. Vitamin B3 is also an effective anti-inflammatory that reduces the impact of external aggressors and helps to prevent skin conditions from flaring up.

Vitamin B has a lot of roles to play in the body and on the skin. These roles and what it is used for vary depending on a person's needs and what they are trying to achieve.

Vitamin B is often used in skincare products because of the great variety of benefits that it offers. The top 5 Vitamin B benefits for skin include:

1) ANTI-AGEING PROPERTIES

A key benefit of Vitamin B is that it helps to maintain Collagen levels - the ingredient in your skin that keeps it elastic and prevents wrinkles. As you age, the levels of Collagen in your skin slowly reduce, which is why wrinkles start to appear. So by maintaining the level of Collagen in your skin with Vitamin B, you are able to reduce these early signs of ageing. 

Vitamin B also promotes cell turnover, which is where dead skin cells are replaced with younger ones. This process makes the skin much firmer and less prone to sagging, a key factor in the appearance of wrinkles.

2) REDUCES INFLAMMATION

Vitamin B also has anti-inflammatory properties, which means it can help to reduce the severity of inflamed skin concerns such as Acne, Dermatitis, and Psoriasis. It works to calm the skin and reduce the impact of any external factors that can often make inflammation worse.

3) BOOSTS IMMUNE SYSTEM FOR HEALTHIER SKIN

Another benefit of Vitamin B is that it boosts the body's production of red blood cells, helping it to function as efficiently as possible. This also impacts how well your immune system works, and an efficient immune system is much better at preventing infections and skin irritations, like Acne or Psoriasis.

Make sure to contact a doctor if you suffer from skin irritations or a low immune system, for their professional advice.

4) MAINTAINS THE SKIN’S OIL PRODUCTION

The fourth benefit of Vitamin B is that it helps the skin to balance its oil production, to ensure it is not over or under producing. Skin that over produces oil, is much more likely to suffer from blemishes and Acne, whereas skin that under produces oil, is much more likely to become dry, cracked and irritated. This means that, by balancing oil production, Vitamin B helps to prevent both blemish-prone and dry skin.

5) INCREASES BLOOD FLOW FOR A GLOWING COMPLEXION

Last but not least, Vitamin B aids in increasing blood flow around the body, which allows for more nutrients to be carried around the body and to the skin. Just like a nutrient-rich flower, skin with more nutrients is much brighter and healthier, which is visible in your complexion. This makes Vitamin B a great partner for vibrant and youthful looking skin.

It is generally well tolerated on all skin types, including sensitive.
