About this product
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
It is a white, crystalline, odorless powder with a low content of niacin.
Niacinamide is the water soluble form of niacin.
Vitamin B3 belongs to the family of the B vitamins and is essential in the diet.
Oral supplements are very useful but there has always been a side effect known as “Niacin flush” whereby the skin would appear flushed and prickly for a few minutes after taking the supplement.
This is a special cosmetic grade of Vitamin B3 with minimal residual nicotinic acid so there is no flush or prickling.
It is for external use only and the skin is left feeling very comfortable when it is used in creams, lotions, gels, toners and serums.
