If you suffer from pigmentation spotsacne<\/a>of rashes<\/a>of blackheads<\/a> or simply if you have a texture problem, I recommend using a duo of active ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From niacinamide<\/a> in the morning because it has a very fluid texture and azelaic acid rather in the evening because the products with theazelaic acid<\/a> can fluff up your sunscreen or make-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The benefits of niacinamide:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Anti-spot properties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hyperpigmentation, or brown spots, are often persistent and difficult to eliminate with topical products alone. However, niacinamide is a remarkable ingredient for reducing them. Research shows that daily use of niacinamide at a concentration of 2-5 % for 8 weeks can significantly lighten areas of hyperpigmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repair of the skin barrier and improvement of redness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The cutaneous barrier, the skin's outer layer, is crucial for maintaining hydration and overall skin health. It consists mainly of free fatty acids, cholesterol and ceramides. The quantity and structure of these compounds directly influence the health of the skin barrier. Studies have shown that the application of 2 % niacinamide can increase the synthesis of these essential components, resulting in a stronger, healthier skin barrier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caution: niacinamide can sometimes cause flushing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anti-acne properties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although niacinamide is not traditionally considered a primary treatment for acne, it's worth a try for those with skin problems. It has sebum-regulating and anti-inflammatory properties. One study revealed that the use of 4 % niacinamide for 8 weeks led to an improvement in skin condition in 82 % of participants, with results slightly better than those obtained with 1 % clindamycin gel, an antibiotic commonly used to treat acne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
