Niacinamide boosts ceramide production, strengthening the skin barrier. This leads to better moisture retention, environmental protection, and reduced water loss, resulting in healthier skin.

Niacinamide stimulates the production of ceramides, essential lipids that constitute the skin's barrier. By increasing ceramide levels, the skin barrier is strengthened, leading to improved moisture retention, enhanced protection against environmental pollutants and irritants, and a reduction in transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This results in healthier, more hydrated skin.
