Niacinamide has emerged as an all-star ingredient due to its many benefits.
It is known to treat acne by reducing inflammation. It also helps fade dark-spots and strengthen the skin by promoting the growth of the ceramide barrier.
Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.
The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

I actually already had my HG moisturizer set on Skinsort but wow.. I took a risk and bought this moisturizer the second I found it on here bc there's a limited selection of FA safe moisturizers that actually do the work.
It's expensive but my skin is so so so sensitive and reactive, it's worth it to me to have a moisturizer that doesn't burn/doesn't break me out/doesn't make me red&irritated. It's a very thick gel and so I make sure I apply it literally the second I pat my skin after washing so that I lock in the moisture. I swear after 10 seconds of having this on, my skin is calmed of any redness and it gives such a nice finish to the skin, like glass skin. I had a situation with tretinoin, it gave me perioral dermatitis and I suspect I had a retinol burn as well (my face hurt to move, it was bad), so I stopped using it and this thing here saved my skin barrier and is constantly improving my skin somehow. I'm shook and very very happy!! (Caution: it might not be moisturizing enough for dry skin and it's a bit sticky)

This is the ONLY moisturizer I've ever used that doesn't make me break out. I have combo hormonal acne and have also struggled with fungal acne breakouts in the past. This has a really unique texture in that's it's a thick gel but it hydrates like a cream. If you're super sensitive or acne prone it's definitely worth a try.
