Its INCI name is Niacinamide, and it is a water-soluble form of vitamin B3 that integrates cleanly into serums, moisturizers, toners, eye creams, and face masks. Niacinamide works by inhibiting the transfer of melanosomes to keratinocytes, making it highly effective at reducing hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. It also supports ceramide and fatty acid synthesis to strengthen the lipid barrier, regulates sebum production, visibly minimizes the appearance of enlarged pores, and reduces early signs of aging including fine lines and dullness. Its anti-inflammatory properties make it a reliable choice for acne-prone and sensitive skin formulations where irritation must be minimized. Niacinamide is also used in scalp serums and conditioning rinses for its supportive barrier properties. Rabibazaar supplies high-purity cosmetic-grade Niacinamide for DIY skincare formulators, professional cosmetic chemists, and beauty brands developing brightening and anti-aging products across Pakistan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:14px 0 7px;font-size:17px;line-height:1.35;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:14px 0 7px;font-size:17px;line-height:1.35;\"\u003e📊 Technical Data:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINCI Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Niacinamide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCAS Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 98-92-0\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolubility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water-soluble\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdd Phase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water phase (below 70°C)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH Stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.0 – 7.0\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProcessing Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≤ 70°C\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e White crystalline powder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOdor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Odorless\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMolecular Formula:\u003c\/strong\u003e C6H6N2O\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMolecular Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 122.13 g\/mol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlash Point:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not flammable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDensity:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~1.4 g\/cm³\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChemical Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amide (Vitamin)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunctional Groups:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amide, Pyridine Ring\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Cosmetic Uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Serums, creams, lotions, masks, toners\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border:0;border-top:1px solid #e3e3e3;margin:24px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"margin:0 0 12px;font-size:24px;line-height:1.3;\"\u003eInformation About Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #dedede;border-radius:6px;background:#ffffff;margin:0 0 10px;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:13px 16px;font-weight:600;line-height:1.4;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e✅ Key Features\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:12px 16px 5px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e✦ Clinically proven water-soluble Vitamin B3 active that brightens, refines pores, and reduces dark spots at 5% use level.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Inhibits melanosome transfer to keratinocytes, directly reducing hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone over consistent use.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Regulates sebaceous activity and minimizes the visible appearance of enlarged pores in oily and combination skin types.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Boosts ceramide and fatty acid synthesis in the skin barrier, improving moisture retention and reducing transepidermal water loss.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Anti-inflammatory properties reduce redness, calm acne-related irritation, and fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation effectively.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Compatible with a wide range of cosmetic actives, emulsifiers, and formulation systems at 2–10% use level.\u003cbr\u003e\n✦ Vegan, non-animal-derived, and suitable for all skin types including sensitive, mature, oily, and acne-prone skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #dedede;border-radius:6px;background:#ffffff;margin:0 0 10px;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:13px 16px;font-weight:600;line-height:1.4;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e🔬 Description\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:12px 16px 5px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eNiacinamide is the cosmetically active amide form of Vitamin B3, also known by the synonym nicotinamide, with a history rooted in nutritional biochemistry and clinical dermatology. Its INCI name is Niacinamide, and it has been studied in dermatological applications since the 1970s. The transition into mainstream cosmetic formulation accelerated in the late 1990s as independent studies confirmed measurable improvements in skin tone, barrier integrity, and sebum control at concentrations of 2–5%, making it one of the most well-documented actives available to formulators today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eWhat distinguishes Niacinamide from most other brightening agents is the breadth of its mechanism.

I always dissolve it directly in the water phase during the heating stage, which ensures full integration and leaves no undissolved residue in the finished formula. The most important variable I control is pH. I keep every Niacinamide-containing formulation between pH 5.5 and 7.0 without exception. Below that range, particularly under 4.0, Niacinamide hydrolyzes to nicotinic acid, which is the compound responsible for the niacin flush reaction — temporary redness and tingling that some consumers misinterpret as sensitivity to Niacinamide itself. I also avoid combining Niacinamide at high concentrations in the same product as L-Ascorbic Acid in a low-pH formulation, not because they are chemically antagonistic, but because the acidic environment needed for Vitamin C stability drives the conversion I want to avoid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eADVANCED TIP: For a high-performance triple-brightening serum, combine 5% Niacinamide with 2% Alpha Arbutin and 1% Tranexamic Acid in a water-based gel at pH 6.0–6.5. Dissolve the Niacinamide in your water phase at 70–75°C, cool the batch below 40°C, then introduce Alpha Arbutin and Tranexamic Acid with gentle stirring to preserve activity. This combination attacks melanogenesis at three independent checkpoints — melanosome transfer inhibition, tyrosinase inhibition, and plasminogen pathway suppression — producing a synergistic brightening result that surpasses any single active used alone at the same total percentage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #dedede;border-radius:6px;background:#ffffff;margin:0 0 10px;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:13px 16px;font-weight:600;line-height:1.4;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e👩‍🔬 Skin Type Suitability\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:12px 16px 5px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eNormal Skin    : ★★★★★ — Universally well-tolerated with no contraindications;

Levels of 2–10% are all supported by clinical data, with 5% offering the best balance between visible results and tolerance across diverse skin types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eQ: Can Niacinamide and Vitamin C be used together in the same formula?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Combining high-dose Niacinamide with L-Ascorbic Acid in the same low-pH (below 3.5) formulation is not ideal, as the acidic environment promotes Niacinamide hydrolysis to nicotinic acid, which can reduce the efficacy of both ingredients. The safer approach is to use them in separate products or buffer the combined formulation to pH 5.5–6.5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eQ: Why does Niacinamide sometimes cause skin flushing?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Flushing is caused by nicotinic acid, a degradation product that forms when Niacinamide is exposed to very low pH or used above 10% without proper formulation control. Niacinamide itself does not cause flushing. Keeping the formulation at pH 5.5–7.0 and staying within 5–10% use level eliminates this risk entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eQ: How do I correctly add Niacinamide to an emulsion?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Niacinamide is water-soluble and must always be added to the aqueous (water) phase of your emulsion. It dissolves easily in water at room temperature or can be heat-dissolved at 70–75°C during the hot process phase. Once fully dissolved and the emulsion is formed, Niacinamide remains stable and evenly distributed throughout the finished formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eQ: How does Niacinamide compare to Alpha Arbutin for skin brightening?\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Both are effective brightening agents but work through different pathways. Niacinamide inhibits melanosome transfer from melanocytes to skin surface cells, while Alpha Arbutin directly inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme that drives melanin synthesis upstream. Alpha Arbutin is considered more potent for targeted depigmentation at lower concentrations, while Niacinamide offers the additional benefits of pore refinement, sebum control, and barrier repair that Alpha Arbutin does not provide. Combining both at 5% Niacinamide and 1–2% Alpha Arbutin delivers superior brightening results than either used alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #dedede;border-radius:6px;background:#ffffff;margin:0 0 10px;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:13px 16px;font-weight:600;line-height:1.4;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003eProfessional Guidance\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:12px 16px 5px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct evaluation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 9px;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eReview the specifications, supplied grade, intended use and compatibility of Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) before ordering for production.
