Also known as: Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)
What it is
Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 and one of the most-studied, best-tolerated ingredients in skincare — the reason it turns up in everything from serums to moisturisers.
What it does for your skin
It's the great all-rounder: skin looks more even-toned and refined, pores look less noticeable, and it helps skin feel comfortable and balanced. It plays nicely with almost every other ingredient, morning or night.
Who it’s for
Genuinely everyone — it suits sensitive, oily, dry and combination skin, and it's a fragrance-light workhorse rather than a strong active.
How we use it
It's the hero of our Glass Skin Serum and doubles up in Dew Lock Moisturiser, so you can run it top to bottom in a routine.
Questions, answered
Can you use niacinamide every day?
Yes — it's gentle enough for twice-daily use, morning and night, and suits most skin types.
Can you use niacinamide with vitamin C?
Yes. The old 'they cancel out' myth has been debunked — many people use vitamin C in the morning and niacinamide throughout the day with no issue.
What does niacinamide do for your skin?
Cosmetically, it helps skin look more even-toned, refined and balanced, and can make pores appear smaller with consistent use.
