Niacinamide/Nicotinamide

Niacinamide, also known as Nicotinamide, is a water-soluble form of Vitamin B3. It is a fine, white, crystalline powder widely used in skincare and cosmetic products due to its anti-inflammatory, brightening, and anti-aging properties. Niacinamide helps improve the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines, and dullness by boosting skin barrier function and moisture retention. It is suitable for all skin types and is highly stable in a variety of formulations.

Applications:

• Skincare Products: Used in serums, moisturizers, toners, and masks for its anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. It helps reduce redness, acne, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines, and supports an even skin tone.
• Hair Care: Niacinamide is included in shampoos and conditioners to improve scalp health, support keratin production, and reduce inflammation.
• Personal Care: Found in sunscreens, makeup, and body lotions for its hydrating and skin-soothing effects.
• Pharmaceutical Applications: Used in vitamin supplements and topical treatments for conditions like acne, rosacea, and dermatitis.

Handling and Storage:

• Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. When handling large amounts, wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing. Ensure good ventilation in work areas, especially during powder handling to avoid inhalation. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
• Storage: Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Protect from direct sunlight and moisture, as exposure to high humidity can degrade the product. Avoid storing near incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers or acids.
