Can niacinamide body lotion really whiten your skin?

Niacinamide body lotion can whiten your skin. Niacinamide can accelerate metabolism and accelerate the shedding of keratin containing melanocytes. Niacinamide has a small molecular weight and can be directly absorbed by epidermal cells, stimulating the vitality of some already weakened cells, promoting the synthesis of collagen, preventing excessive deposition of melanin, and achieving a whitening effect. After melanin is produced, the skin will only turn darker if it is transported to the stratum corneum. Niacinamide can reduce the transport of melanin to the stratum corneum of the skin, reduce the deposition of melanin in the stratum corneum, and prevent skin darkening.

Effects of Niacinamide on Skin

1. Anti-aging: Studies have shown that niacinamide can promote the synthesis of epidermal protein, enhance the skin's own defense capabilities, increase skin moisture content, and reduce wrinkles, dullness, and pigmentation on the facial skin. Niacinamide is widely used in anti-aging products.

2. Oil control and pore reduction: When the niacinamide content in the product reaches 2%, it can reduce the production of fatty acids and triglycerides in the sebum secreted by the skin, thereby achieving the effect of controlling oil secretion. When oil secretion is reduced, the pores, the channels through which the skin excretes sebum, will also slowly shrink, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing pores.

3. Acne removal: Studies have shown that the effect of a gel containing 4% niacinamide on acne is equivalent to that of a 1% clindamycin gel (the main topical prescription drug). But I suggest you try it casually, the value is 2%!
