A CRITICAL BUILDING BLOCK FOR THE SKIN, VITAMIN B3 HAS BEEN A CORNERSTONE INGREDIENT IN DRNC’S FORMULATIONS FOR YEARS. DR COOK EXPLAINS WHY SHE’S SO PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS HARD-WORKING ANTIOXIDANT.
A widely respected, vital nutrient that supports numerous cellular processes in the skin, Vitamin B3 truly deserves the hype. There have been countless scientific studies on the efficacy of this powerhouse vitamin, proving it to be anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, antioxidant, antipruritic and even anti-cancer. In fact, it’s been proven that ingesting a 500mg Vitamin B3 supplement twice a day can reduce the risk of non-melanoma skin cancers by a significant 23%.
AN EXCELLENT WORK ETHIC
Vitamin B3 has held my interest for so long due to its ability as a diligent multitasker within a skincare routine. It improves elasticity, diminishes hyperpigmentation, soothes inflammation and helps interrupt the breakout cycle. It also reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines, controls oil and the impact of pollution and bolsters the skin’s barrier protection. Long-term use has also been proven to have skin-brightening, cell-renewing and anti-ageing properties. All reasons why I have incorporated Vitamin B3 throughout the drNC skincare range.
TREATS THE 6 KEY SKIN CONCERNS
As a practicing dermatologist for over 20 years, I’ve identified that the most commonly experienced skin concerns are: acne, ageing, pigmentation, sun damage, sensitivity/rosacea and dehydration. And most people have at least one if not more of these concerns simultaneously which necessitates the need for active ingredients within skincare formulations that are nimble and versatile. Fortunately, Vitamin B3 has been clinically proven to be effective at addressing all of these concerns.
BOOSTS SKINSPAN™
Over the years, I’ve been increasingly interested in not just helping people achieve healthy functioning skin but maintaining those results for as long as possible. Your DNA doesn’t have to define your destiny and Vitamin B3 plays an important role in boosting skin longevity, helping to pave the way for new cells making skin healthier, happier and more radiant, for longer.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Another key benefit of formulating skincare with Vitamin B is its ability to work synergistically with other ingredients to amplify results, making it a non-negotiable in everything from cleansers and moisturisers, serums and spot treatments and next-gen sunscreens. Vitamin B loves to be layered, not just with other ingredients but other Vitamin B-infused products. When it comes to this superior antioxidant, your skin can never get enough Vitamin B.
