Although your body can produce niacinamide from the amino acid tryptophan, the majority of vitamin B3 must be obtained through dietary sources. Fortunately, this B-vitamin can be found in a variety of niacin-rich foods, such as fish, poultry, grains, nuts, and legumes. There are three different forms of vitamin B3: niacinamide (nicotinamide), niacin (nicotinic acid), and nicotinamide riboside. Of these three, niacinamide is the B3 derivative that’s ideal for use in skincare products.

Niacinamide has anti-inflammatory properties which, when applied topically, help minimize the impact of acne, and moderate rosacea. If that wasn’t impressive enough, the ingredient can also neutralize free radical damage, helping to prevent skin cancer as well as fine lines and wrinkles in the process. “The amount of niacinamide in products varies in formulations, and depends on what other ingredients are in the product,” says Marnie B. Nussbaum, M.D., Clinical Instructor of Dermatology at Weill Cornell Medical College. “There are topical formulations ranging from two percent to 10 percent." Formulas with niacinamide are generally well-tolerated with a low risk of skin irritation. This means that niacinamide products are typically considered gentle, suitable options for most skin types, including those with sensitive and blemish-prone skin.
