Niacinamide
Niacinamide (also known as nicotinamide, vitamin B3, or vitamin PP) is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to the B group of vitamins.
It acts as a component of Coenzyme I (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NAD) and Coenzyme II
(nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, NADP),
and the nicotinamide portion of these two coenzyme structures in the human body is essential for normal cell respiration and metabolism

Function of Nicotinamide
1.Whitening skin:
Niacinamide can inhibit the production of melanin in the skin, reduce the production and precipitation of melanin,
thereby helping to whiten the skin and improve the yellowing problem.
2.Anti-aging:
The use of niacinamide can slow skin aging, help reduce facial wrinkles and dark spots, and stimulate the production of skin collagen.
Niacinamide also has an anti-glycation effect, which can dilute the yellow color of proteins after glycation, improve the skin's synthesis of epidermal proteins, and thus combat aging.
3.Moisturizing ability:
Niacinamide can increase the moisturizing ability of the skin, while reducing the loss of skin moisture and keeping the skin hydrated.
4.Oil control and pore improvement:
Nicotinamide can reduce the production of fatty acids and triglycerides in sebum, control the secretion of oil, and regulate skin pores.
5.Repair Skin barrier:
Niacinamide can repair skin barrier function, improve skin cuticle, fight skin damage, enhance skin resistance.
6.Anti-inflammatory and acne removal:
Niacinamide has anti-inflammatory properties and can participate in the inflammatory response to help the skin fight acne.
For example, a gel containing nicotinamide can remove facial acne, boost skin metabolism, and peel off excess cuticle.
7.Improve redness and yellowing:
Niacinamide can improve the red blood on the skin, while promoting the skin to effectively increase the antioxidant effect,
improve the skin yellowing problem.
