Any questions?
Our experts have the answer
What is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide, or vitamin B3, is a natural nutrient in many foods like fish, poultry, grains and nuts. It is widely used in skincare products due to its skin-brightening and hydrating properties, which help to strengthen the skin's protective barrier.
What does Niacinamide do to your skin?
Niacinamide is well-known for increasing skin moisture and improving texture, tone, and hydration. It is effective in treating hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and wrinkles. For all skin types, maintaining a robust, intact skin barrier is critical because it keeps dangerous irritants out and moisture in your skin. Apart from its ability to strengthen the barrier, niacinamide (or vitamin B3 skincare) has been demonstrated to possess antioxidant qualities and can aid with skin calmness.
Niacinamide skincare products, like Clarins' Multi-Active Day Face Cream, can reduce the visibility of fine lines and improve skin texture.

Is Niacinamide an active?
Niacinamide is a gentle active ingredient that is well-handled by all skin types. You can actually use niacinamide skincare twice daily in your AM and PM. Plus, niacinamide doesn't exfoliate the skin. Instead, it strengthens the skin's barrier and helps lock in moisture.
Can you use Niacinamide on sensitive skin?
All skin types can benefit from Niacinamide, known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties.
When used in a daily skincare routine, Niacinamide can help soothe the skin, making it an ideal choice for sensitive skin types who want to enhance their complexion.

How can I add Niacinamide to my skincare routine?
For a simple daytime routine that features niacinamide, Clarins suggests starting with a gentle cleanser to remove impurities. Next, apply a niacinamide cream with SPF like Clarins Multi-active Day Cream SPF 15.
In the evening, you can use a niacinamide serum or emulsion like our Multi-active Day Emulsion after a toner. Then, use a night niacinamide cream to lock in the moisture.
