Niacinamide is a superstar for oily, acne-prone skin—helping regulate sebum, calm redness, minimize the look of pores, and fade post-acne marks. It’s well-tolerated across oily-sensitive types like OSPT and OSNT, and pairs well with exfoliating acids, retinoids, and sunscreen.

How to use it:

  • Start with 2–5% niacinamide once daily after cleansing; increase to twice daily if skin tolerates.
  • Layer: cleanse → toner/essence → niacinamide → lightweight moisturizer → SPF (AM).
  • For active breakouts, pair with BHA at night; introduce slowly to avoid over-exfoliation.
