Niacinamide for uneven texture: how to use it and what to expect

Let's be honest about what Niacinamide can really do, and what it can't.

What is Niacinamide

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) strengthens the skin barrier, regulates sebum and evens out tone.

How Niacinamide helps for uneven texture

Uneven texture is a mix of roughness, enlarged pores and post-acne marks. Niacinamide approaches the problem from a different angle: niacinamide (vitamin B3) strengthens the skin barrier, regulates sebum and evens out tone. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for uneven texture.

How to use it

• Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
• Apply niacinamide to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
• Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
• Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.

Precautions

Well tolerated by almost everyone, though above 10% it may cause slight flushing. Combining exfoliation with collagen stimulation smooths the surface.
