NIACINAMIDE - IS IT WORTH THE HYPE? DERMATOLOGISTS WEIGH IN

Read more about niacinamide: remedyskin.com...
Niacinamide is an ingredient found in many skin care products and it receives a TON of hype. But is the hype justified? In this video, we review niacinamide as a skin care ingredient, it's benefits, and at the end, we make product recommendations!
Niacinamide has many benefits to the skin, including brightening skin tone, improving hyperpigmentation, decreasing oil production (in some people), fighting acne, decreasing redness, and moisturizing the skin.
Interestingly, many of the studies on the benefits of niacinamide were done with concentrations less than 5%. Therefore, it's not always necessary to find products with high concentrations of this product to see the benefits mentioned above!

@@lizzyzoeller3704 I apply my Niacinamide serum after cleansing in combination with my hyaluronic serum on a damp face. On days I use Retinol (in a cream vehicle) I use it before I apply the Retinol. On days where I use my BHA ( in a toner vehicle) I apply my serums afterwards. As a last step I always seal everything with a very occlusive moisturizer. My moisturizer is oil and water based. In the morning I apply my niacinamide serum right after cleansing. Then I use a lightweight moisturizer and sunscreen as a last step. Usually Niacinamide plays well with other active ingredients, as always it depends on your skin tho.

@@danijela6v6 Hi:) the one that I use is from The ordinary and it has 10% niacinamide + 1% zinc. I saw results after approximately 2 months. I was also very skeptical because I was struggling with acne since age 13 (now I am 29) and tried dozens of products that didn't work until the point in which I had lost all hope for a clear skin. It was at that moment that I heard of niacinamide and decided to give one last try,but I wasn't very hopeful. Now (after 6 months of use) my face is clear, I still get like 1 pimple per week (but not every week). It seems miraculous to me how a cheap simple product could do what dozens of other remedies couldn't do. I do know what having acne means and I highly recommend niacinamide for everyone who struggles with this horrible issue. Good luck 💜

I love you guys! No bs, straightforward, only the information I need

[@nobodybutHIM777]

Niacimide works specially with millia and syrangoma, what you need to remove the top skin to get inside and dry up these pest. It does not inflammed when you open it on top. Just pinch it with sharp pin, make sure its sterilized and face is clean. And to make it dry also put aloe vera fast, the fresh one will be best to make it heal fast.

Thank you so much for this content! I have oily skin & will be adding this gem to my routine. I have a hunch that this is what I've been missing.

Please make a in depth video about hair care & hair growth and actual supplements that help that won’t break the bank.

Hello Drs Thanks for the Video. Can we use Niacinamide with Hyaluronic acid???

[@Jack_Jack9]

Love these videos. Very clear and digestible information. My only criticism is that that you guys should also touch on wether these products are pregnancy safe. I have seen other videos made by these doctors and it’s not often they discuss pregnancy safe products (only heard it mentioned in te Alzeic acid video). It would be nice to see a specific video on pregnancy safe beauty products.

[@autumngendreau6812]

Thank you! As always, I learned a ton from this explainer. Just one thing: is this something you apply in the morning, at night, or both?

[@fionalorimer4127]

I have persisted with The Ordinary, my skin reacts. Also with the Cerave PM. I think the 10% might be too much for me.

[@HereDiianas]

Try GOW 5% niacinamide, I used to use the one from the Ordinary too with no problem but the one from GOW is actually more effective for me although the percentage is lower.

[@sonny4569]

Yeah 10% too much for me too. Makes me breakout.😒

I love the products La Roche Posay has that has that ingredient in them. They are great for my very sensive, very light, mature and , oily prone/ combination acne prone skin. I have not had any acne breakouts since then. Years! My skin looks so much better now.

[@MomoSimone22]

I feel that niacinamide has really regulated my sebum, and since using it I've been able to wear my make up all day without my dumb face oil destroying it!

Would it be effective if I make a mask from niacinamide powder and moisturiser and leave on for 15min?

[@Andrea-xk3qg]

I have a lot of trouble with moisturizers. I have tried so many, and they all either make my skin breakout or make my skin feel really clogged and heavy and uncomfortable. I was thinking of trying The Ordinary niacinamide as a replacement for moisturizer -- so the final step in my skincare routine to lock things in. I was wondering if you think it could be an effective replacement or if I'm on the wrong track? Or can I just skip moisturizer all together? ❤️❤️❤️

[@sukhvindertiwana586]

When i used 10% niacinamide i broke out with whiteheads on my face. I tried it spaced out of time and got the same reaction.

[@mayratomino9250]

Just discovered your channel and loving it!! Begin binge watching for an hour almost - thanks for sharing so much information!! Quick question if you might have the chance to reply, as in one of the videos I understood that hyaluronic acid working together with niacinamide, might not have a effect on the pigmentation, for example - did you mean together in the same product or overall in a chosen skin routine? I ask because I am currently using Vichy 89 Minerals and would love to start the Elta MD SFP and use in my morning routine. Thank you!!

[@jungleful]

You guys are great together. I enjoy how you bounce off one another. Info is great and I’m a big fan. Where do you practice? I want to be a patient.

[@poganpey2100]

It’s not “HYPE” its the reason why my skin doesn’t have any acne/blemishes. Been using it for 3 years now, The Ordinary one, and I am like a junkie. I never skip it. Its the one thing I use everyday for sure! 100%!!!

@@honeybadgernasty I use The Ordinary but will try out some other brands with 12% niacinamide later as well to see if there’s any difference.

Thank you for all the information on niacinamide! I kept debating if I actually need it in my routine, but will definitely try it out again. Keep up the great work guys!

Olay did a limited edition Body Moisturizer with Niacinamide at Sam's Club, 2 big bottles for like $20. The Olay face cream is so expensive, I bought this and have been using it on my face and neck. Seems to work great.
