The Power of Vitamin B3: Why It's a Skincare Essential

When it comes to healthy, radiant skin, few ingredients are as versatile and powerful as Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide). That’s why we made sure to include it in our Alohilohi Foaming Facial Cleanser + Makeup Remover—a cleanser that does more than just clean; it nourishes and protects your skin with every wash.

But why is Vitamin B3 so important in skincare? Let’s break it down.

What is Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide)?

Vitamin B3, commonly known as niacinamide, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin health. Unlike some skincare ingredients that work only at the surface level, niacinamide penetrates deep into the skin, delivering powerful benefits without irritation.

Why Your Skin Needs Vitamin B3

1. Evens Skin Tone & Reduces Hyperpigmentation

One of Vitamin B3’s biggest benefits is its ability to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of dark spots, redness, and uneven skin tone. It works by inhibiting excess melanin production, helping your complexion appear more even and radiant over time.

2. Strengthens the Skin Barrier

Your skin barrier is your first line of defense against pollution, bacteria, and environmental damage. Niacinamide boosts ceramide production, strengthening this barrier and preventing moisture loss, which is essential for keeping your skin hydrated and resilient.

3. Soothes & Calms Irritated Skin

If you struggle with sensitive skin, redness, or inflammation, niacinamide is a game-changer. It has anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe irritation, making it ideal for those with conditions like rosacea, eczema, or acne-prone skin.

4. Controls Oil Production & Minimizes Pores

Oily or combination skin? Niacinamide helps regulate sebum production, reducing excess oil without over-dryingyour skin. Plus, it minimizes the appearance of pores, giving your complexion a smoother, more refined look.

5. Fights Signs of Aging

Fine lines and wrinkles? Niacinamide boosts collagen production, improving skin elasticity and reducing the visible signs of premature aging. It’s a must-have ingredient for keeping skin firm, youthful, and healthy-looking.

Why We Included Vitamin B3 in Our Cleanser

At Alohilohi Skincare, we believe that a cleanser should do more than just remove dirt and oil—it should actively nourish and improve your skin with every use. That’s why our Foaming Facial Cleanser + Makeup Remover is infused with Vitamin B3, ensuring that your skin stays hydrated, balanced, and protected even after cleansing.
