Niacinamide, if you are serious about skin care you will no doubt have heard about this ingredient and may be wondering “What is Niacinamide?”

There is a huge buzz about niacinamide also known as vitamin B3 now and rightly so. This “powerhouse” of and ingredient really does deserve all the hype its receiving but what are the uses for our skin and how do you use it?”

Niacinamide is an all-round crowd pleaser and multitasker. This wonder vitamin will offer different benefits depending on your skin type or concern. Here are just a few of the many benefits niacinamide will deliver to your skin. Calming and soothing, improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduces the appearance of pigmentation and sun damage, regulates oil production, and helps to support the skins natural barrier. Not bad at all I’m sure you will agree!

Unlike other must have ingredients at the moment Niacinamide is relatively easy to use with no phasing in or down time required. So Clarins Multi-Active Day and Night Creampopular is this little vitamin that Skincare giant Clarins have reformulated its very popular Multi Active day and night cream to include it. Multi active day cream and Multi active night cream is formulated to help prevent the signs of premature stress aging on the skin and niacinamide it the perfect ingredient to help reverse the signs of stress with its calming healing and soothing properties and the ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
