Skin School: Will Niacinamide help with my acne?
If you’ve ever researched solutions for acne, you’ve probably come across the powerhouse ingredient niacinamide. This skincare favourite is celebrated for its versatility and effectiveness in tackling a range of skin concerns, including acne. But how exactly does niacinamide work to help with acne, and is it the right solution for you? Let’s dive into the science and explore how BEAUTYPRO’s CICA + NIACINAMIDE Blemish Control Sheet Mask and Serum can become your new skincare staples.
What is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, is a water-soluble vitamin that has gained popularity in the skincare world for its ability to strengthen the skin barrier, regulate oil production, and reduce inflammation. Its gentle yet effective properties make it suitable for almost all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.
How Niacinamide Targets Acne
Acne can result from a combination of excess sebum production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. Niacinamide addresses these issues in several ways:
-
Reduces Sebum Production: Excess oil can clog pores and lead to breakouts. Niacinamide helps regulate sebum production, keeping your skin balanced.
-
Minimizes Inflammation: Inflamed acne lesions can leave your skin red and irritated. Niacinamide’s anti-inflammatory properties help calm the skin, reducing redness and swelling.
-
Improves Skin Barrier Function: A compromised skin barrier can lead to irritation and exacerbate acne. Niacinamide strengthens the skin’s protective layer, promoting resilience.
-
Fades Post-Acne Marks: Acne often leaves behind hyperpigmentation or dark spots. Niacinamide works to even out skin tone and fade these marks over time.
Jane Saint, BEAUTYPRO's Skincare Expert says: " Niacinamide is one of the best ways to help counteract the effects and symptoms of acne. It has wonderful restorative and soothing properties so will help reduce inflammation and bacteria and lessen the risk of scarring."
