Key benefits

  • Supports barrier function
  • Improves appearance and uneven tone
  • helps refine skin texture
  • Well tolerated across skin types

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.

 

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

Use level considerations

Use Rate (Min): 1.0
Use Rate (Max): 50.0

  • Serums: 5–20%
  • Mists: 2–10%
  • Creams: 3–10%

Starter Use Rate: 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.
