Blotchy. Rough. Dark spots. Dull. Angry. We hear countless complaints about uneven skin tone. 

How Niacinamide Helps Even Out Your Skin Tone

If your skin has dark spots, redness, or that “patchy” look, you’re not alone. Uneven skin tone is one of the most common skin frustrations – and one of the easiest to improve with the right ingredient: enter niacinamide.

What is it?

It’s a form of Vitamin B3 that isn’t produced naturally by our bodies - so its benefits are given through topical application in skincare. Niacinamide is a water-soluble so it’s easily absorbed by the body, helping skin tone and health.

What does it do?

Niacinamide doesn’t just cover the problem – it fixes it at the source. And unlike some strong actives, it’s gentle enough for sensitive and mature skin.

• Fades dark spots and pigmentation. Niacinamide slows down the transfer of pigment to skin cells, helping those stubborn marks fade over time.

• Calms redness, breakouts and blotchiness – it reduces inflammation, making skin tone look more uniform.

• Strengthens your skin barrier – a healthy barrier means less irritation, which often means less unevenness and more moisture ie soft, plumper, youthful looking skin.

• Boosts brightness – by improving cell turnover and hydration, skin looks clearer and fresher. 

How to use it?

You’ll find niacinamide in our Desert Glow Brightening Gel-Crème, paired with prickly pear seed oil, green tea, native Australian tomato and pomegranate sterols, so your skin gets science-backed results and a hit of antioxidant-rich plant power.
