Key Benefits of Niacinamide (Vit. B3)

by Simranjeet Sahni 20 Aug 2023

IS NIACINAMIDE A SKINCARE MAGIC BULLET?

If you take a stroll down the skincare aisle at any big box store or even skincare specialty shops, you’ll see big, fancy labels touting the latest combination of vitamins for healthy skin.

Vitamins aren’t some super-secret scientific creation. The truth is, vitamins are basically the building blocks our bodies use every day to do what it needs to do.

Without even realizing it you are creating new skin cells, repairing bones, and growing muscle fibers.

If we didn’t have these building blocks, our bodies would soon stop functioning as intended, and we would start running into problems.

Vitamins are clearly critical when it comes to keeping our skin healthy. And as with many other things in life, healthy skin is happy skin.

NIACINAMIDE (VITAMIN B3) MAY BE THE KEY TO HAPPY HEALTHY SKIN

From charcoal masks and creams made from snail mucus to products infused with CBD, there’s a lot of natural skincare items out there making big promises but delivering little results.

So, it’s only natural to be wary of what you put on your body as well as what you spend your hard-earned money on.

However, the narrative is quite a bit different when it comes to vitamin B-3 (Niacinamide).

Niacinamide can ease dreaded dermatological conditions including dry, sagging skin, and sun damage.

The best part is it’s natural, safe, and scientifically proven to be one of the best skincare ingredients out there today.

WANT TO KEEP YOUR SKIN FIRM AND MOIST SKIN? TRY VITAMIN B3

Niacinamide delivers a big boost when it comes to keeping your skin firm and moist. This is one of the reasons we consider it to be as close to a magic bullet as the natural skincare industry is likely to get.

If we think back to high school biology, we’ll remember our hair, nails, and skin are made of a combination of proteins. Keratin is the main protein in the outermost layer of our skin.

Niacinamide encourages our bodies to ramp up its production of protein especially keratin. It also rejuvenates our skin’s structure. A healthier structure helps to keep skin rigid and firm.

It also strengthens our skin’s moisture barrier. Ceramide is responsible for creating a barrier of fatty tissue (ceramide barrier) within the outermost layer of our skin that helps to keep our skin retain water and a moist, supple texture.

FIGHT BACK AGAINST SUN DAMAGE, DARK SPOTS, AND WRINKLES

Sun damage, dark spots, and wrinkles, for many women these are the trifecta of terror when it comes to having skin that ages gracefully.

With the right knowledge and a little bit of persistence, you can fight back against these three troublemakers.

Sun Damage

The sun is essential to life. Without it our world would be icy and empty. On the other hand, catching too many UV rays can wreak havoc on your skin.

For many women, one of the most aggravating parts of aging is developing dark splotches on their skin. Most folks usually refer to these spots as “age spots” or “liver spots”.

These names are a bit of a skincare fib. They’re not directly related to age, and they actually have nothing to do with the liver.

As you can probably guess by now, these brown splotches are usually caused by too much sun exposure.

The bronze complexion many sun worshipers speak is not a sign of health and fitness. Actually, it means your skin has been damaged by the sun.

When skin cells absorb too many UV rays, they release melanin to try and fight back against the sun’s damage. It’s the melanin that causes our skin to develop that sought after and complexion.

However, the release of melanin is also responsible for the dark color and rough texture of age spots.

Undoing UV Damage

Research has shown niacinamide can repair skin cell DNA. This is a fancy way of saying it can undo the damage that leads to dark spots and discolored skin.

Rubbing on some niacinamide cream is not a get-out-of-jail-free card. Sunscreen is still a necessity. The old cliché holds true. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

Wrinkles

It’s a safe bet that even as far back as the days when the ancient Greeks were using honey and olive oil to keep their skin looking good, there was an ambitious, ancient dermatologist trying to come up with a clever concoction to get rid of the wrinkles.

Thankfully, these days, we have something a little better than honey and olive oil. You guessed it, niacinamide.

Collagen is an essential protein whose job it is to help our skin maintain its elasticity and keep its natural ability to “bounce back” into shape.

Unfortunately, our collagen production drops off as we age. As we lose collagen, wrinkles slowly but surely began to pop up.

The bad news starts in our mid-20s and typically keeps getting worse all the way through menopause. Once we hit our mid-20s, we slowly begin to lose collagen.

Five years into menopause our collagen production declines by about 30%.

Fighting Wrinkles

We don’t throw up our hands, and avoid the mirror as our wrinkles become more frequent and deeper year after year.

Niacinamide to the rescue. This little protein acts as a time machine for our skin. This fountain of youth increases collagen production. Studies have shown in as little as eight weeks, treatment with Niacinamide can create a noticeable difference in the appearance of wrinkles. In 12 weeks, many saw a significant increase in their skin’s elasticity, its ability to bounce back into shape.

ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF YOUNGER LOOKING SKIN

Niacinamide truly gives women the best of both worlds. We are able to enjoy the fruits of our wisdom experience while keeping our skin healthy and beautiful as we age.

Increasing firmness, reversing the sun damage, and undoing wrinkles, this amazing protein is the Trinity of healthy skin.

2020 has been a trying year for all of us. Reward yourself with the gift of youthful, beautiful, and healthy skin. Add skincare products with niacinamide to your daily routine!
