Vitamin B3

Topical vitamin B3 strengthens the skin barrier, boosts essential proteins and ceramides, smooths fine lines, and calms redness from acne and rosacea. It suits dry skin and oily skin particularly well, and it is most commonly available in lightweight serums. Because of its gentle nature, it layers easily into any daily skincare routine.
