Summer skin loves this ingredient – Niacinamide

You have probably heard about Niacinamide before – it is a fantastic ingredient that does a lot of good for our skin.

In the summer, the skin is constantly exposed to influences. UV rays lead to DNA damage and oxidative stress in the skin. Oxidative stress involves chemical chain reactions that negatively affect the skin's structures. Oxidative stress causes microinflammation and breakdown of the skin's structures, so the skin loses its strength and elasticity.

The body's own defense against oxidative stress is antioxidants. When the skin is exposed to UV rays, the skin's antioxidant reserves are quickly depleted. By applying antioxidants directly through the skin, the concentration of antioxidants is highest where the oxidative stress is greatest. Recent research shows very good results with the application of certain types of antioxidants on the skin.

Niacinamide is vitamin B3, a powerful water-soluble antioxidant. In addition to its antioxidant properties, Niacinamide has a wide range of well-documented effects:

01

Improves skin surface structure, strengthens the skin barrier, and maintains the skin's moisture balance.

02

Reduces redness in the skin.

03

Regulates and reduces sebum production.

04

Evens out skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation.

Den optimale konsentrasjonen av Niacinamid i hudpleieprodukter er 4%, da denne konsentrasjonen gir best resultater.

Dette er grunnen til at SUPERFOOD multipurpose vitamin face gel inneholder Niacinamid 4%. I tillegg inneholder SUPERFOOD mange andre viktige vitaminer og antioksidanter:

  • Dexpanthenol 5% (B5 vitamin)
  • Retinyl Palmitate ( A- vitamin)
  • Tocopherol (E vitamin)
  • Naturlig vitamin C fra den Skandinaviske superfrukten Havtorn 

SUPERFOOD brukes enten alene eller som serum under din dag- eller nattkrem.

Kliniske studier har vist at når Superfood brukes daglig som eneste hudpleie produkt gjennom 8 uker så reduseres rynker og hudens stramhet og elastisitet økes.
