What Are Those Ingredients in Your Skin-Care Products?
Niacinamide
Also known as: Nicotinamide.
Good for: Dry skin.
What it treats: Sun damage, irritation, aging.
How it works: "Niacinamide stimulates microcirculation and prevents water loss in the skin," says Reed. Additionally, says Donofrio, "deep
in the skin, it increases production of ceramides, which are the glue that holds the cells together and prevents water loss."
So it helps to hydrate, too. Translation: It gives skin a healthy, youthful glow.
