# Niacinamide and salicylic acid

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/niacinamide-and-salicylic-acid

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Spain.

Depends on the strength

Apply [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/salicylic-acid) first, then [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/niacinamide) right after, because niacinamide soothes your skin and balances oil after the acid exfoliates. Salicylic acid clears your pores, while niacinamide strengthens your skin barrier and calms redness. You can use them together, but make sure your niacinamide product is five percent or weaker.

## Questions and answers

### Can you use niacinamide and salicylic acid together?

Yes, you can use [niacinamide](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/niacinamide) and [salicylic acid](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/salicylic-acid) together depending on the strength, as low to moderate levels of niacinamide help support your skin barrier and sebum balance after applying salicylic acid. Products like Rilastil Acnestil, Drunk Elephant Bouncy Brightfacial, Face Reality sal-C toner, Dermalogica Breakout Clearing Booster, Youth To The People Superclay Purify + Clear Power Mask, and Glow Recipe [Strawberry](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/strawberry) Smooth BHA + AHA Salicylic [Serum](https://lovi.care/skincare/es/ingredients/serum) combine these ingredients.

### Which goes first, niacinamide or salicylic acid?

Apply salicylic acid first, then follow with niacinamide in your routine. This order helps support your skin barrier and sebum balance post-exfoliation when using low to moderate levels of niacinamide.

### Are niacinamide and salicylic acid good for sensitive skin?

Niacinamide and salicylic acid depend on the product strength for sensitive skin because strong acids can cause flushing and irritation, so you should separate them by at least 30 minutes or use them in different routines. Low levels of niacinamide do pair well with salicylic acid to help support the skin barrier and balance sebum for oily and acne-prone skin.
