A pre-dissolved niacinamide solution used in cosmetic formulations.

What is Niacinamide 10% Solution & why is it used?

Used to incorporate niacinamide into formulations without requiring dissolution.

QUALITY MATTERS

Why specification quality matters

Prepared using high-purity niacinamide with controlled dissolution to ensure clarity and
consistency. 

Designed to provide predictable performance and eliminate variability associated with powder handling.

Solubility Water soluble
Primary function Active
Use level 1.0–50.0%

Behaviour in formulations

Niacinamide integrates fully into water-based systems without affecting viscosity. 

It remains stable within appropriate pH ranges and contributes to overall formulation performance without impacting texture.

 

Sensory notes

Minimal direct sensory impact. Maintains a light, water-like texture in formulations

Formulation considerations

PROCESSING

Add to the water phase or during cool-down with mixing until uniform.

COMPATIBILITY

Compatible with most cosmetic ingredients. Best used in formulations with controlled pH.

pH
Best used in formulations with a final pH between 5.0–6.5.
FORMULATION EXAMPLES

Serum

  • Niacinamide solution: 10–20%
  • Water phase

 Mist

  • Niacinamide solution: 5–10%
  • Water base

 Cream

  • Niacinamide solution: 3–10%
  • Emulsion system

Use level considerations

Recommended range 1.0–50.0%
Suggested starting level 5–20%%

Niacinamide 10% Solution is used based on dilution into the final formulation.

At typical use levels (5–20%), it delivers approximately 0.5–2% active niacinamide:

  •  5% → ~0.5% active
  • 10% → ~1% active
  • 20% → ~2% active

Higher levels increase total niacinamide content but should be balanced with overall formulation design.

Formulation summary

This solution is designed to be added directly to the water phase of formulations.

 It provides a controlled way to incorporate niacinamide without requiring dissolution, helping maintain clarity and consistency.

Quality notes
