NIACINAMIDE IS A MUST FOR ANTI-AGING
In multiple clinical studies, topical application of niacinamide improved fine lines and wrinkles, skin sallowness (yellowing), hyperpigmentation, and red blotchiness, as well as elasticity. <– Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16029679<

It has been shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production, as well as even out skin tone by slowing down the transfer of melanin to your skin’s epidermis.

Recent studies have suggested that niacinamide may increase the effectiveness of sunscreens in protecting the skin from UV damage.

Research conducted by Proctor and Gamble showed that after 12 weeks a product with 5% niacinamide was able to improve the appearance of various signs of skin aging, including skin elasticity, pigmentation, lines and wrinkles, and redness.
Another study, on acne, showed an improvement in just over 80% of the participants, after 8 weeks. Use your niacinamide regularly and know that it might take 2 or 3 months to see noticeable improvement.

NIACINAMIDE FOR ROSACEA
Niacinamide has been cited in two different studies as being useful in the treatment of rosacea.

Wake Forest University scientists tested 50 people with rosacea. The study found that applying a Niacinamide based moisturizer twice daily for 4 weeks eased symptoms of this condition. Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16209160

The University of Pittsburgh’s Niacinamide Improvement in Clinical Outcomes Study (NICOS) showed promising results. Most subjects reported an improvement halfway through the 8-week study. 79% said their appearance was either moderately or much better and 55% reported a moderate to substantial reduction in rosacea lesions.; Source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16871775.

CAUTION

Niacinamide should not be used by people with liver disease, people with active ulcers or a history of ulcers, or anyone with gout.
If you drink excessive amounts of alcohol, you should not use niacinamide cream as it can react with increased levels of alcohol in your body.
If you are wanting to use niacinamide cream for the treatment of your acne, start out slow, with small amounts to make sure there are no negative reactions. If you notice redness or peeling, discontinue use.

A little goes a long way with this serum. Simply Apply 4-5 drops each morning then add sunscreen. If using in conjunction with our Vitamin C Serum, apply the Vitamin C Serum first and let it soak in for 2 minutes, then apply the Niacinamide Serum. Allow each serum to soak in then add your daily moisturizer.
