Collection: Niacinamide

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is one of the most versatile, well-tolerated ingredients in all of skincare — a dermatologist favorite for calming redness, evening tone, minimizing the look of pores, and strengthening the skin barrier. Developed by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Zenovia Gabriel, this collection features a clinical 15% niacinamide concentration designed to deliver visible results while remaining gentle enough for sensitive, rosacea-prone skin.

What does niacinamide do for your skin?

• Calms redness and inflammation, making it a top choice for rosacea-prone and easily-flushed skin.
• Strengthens the skin barrier, so skin becomes more resilient and less reactive over time.
• Evens tone and fades discoloration, including dark spots and post-acne marks.
• Refines the look of pores and helps balance excess oil.

How to use niacinamide

Niacinamide is one of the easiest actives to use — apply it morning and/or night after cleansing and toning, before moisturizer. It's well-tolerated by most skin and layers well with virtually every other ingredient, including Vitamin C, retinol, and hyaluronic acid. Follow with SPF in the morning.
