The skincare ingredient niacinamide functions as vitamin B3 to deliver multiple benefits
through its unobtrusive and effortless actions. The foundation of balanced skin depends on
niacinamide because it fights inflammation while building skin defense and creating a smooth
and peaceful complexion.
Dzirus pursues equilibrium through our work instead of pursuing extreme results. The Dzirus Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Serum functions as a product that unites its active ingredients, instead
of creating a marketing sensation. Before we begin, let's clarify that all of our serums are
identical. Each serves a specific purpose: vitamin C for brightness, hyaluronic acid for hydration,
and niacinamide for barrier strength. The skin's defense system consists of these elements.
Niacinamide: What Is It?
Niacinamide functions as a water-soluble vitamin B3 variant, which your body uses for various metabolic activities. The product delivers essential nutrients that your skin barrier has been waiting for, instead of causing a sudden shock to your skin.
Scientific evidence shows that niacinamide helps create collagen while keeping skin moisture levels stable, shrinking pores, decreasing skin redness, and controlling oil production. Your skin depends on this system to maintain balance, as it functions as the essential peacekeeper for your skin's ecosystem.
The skin barrier serves as a protective shield that stops inflammation from occurring while it protects against breakouts and helps maintain an even skin tone and smooth texture.
The Skin Barrier's Scientific Basis
The skin barrier functions as a defensive structure that unites lipids with cells to protect the body from external irritants while maintaining internal moisture levels. The breakdown of this protective barrier allows water to escape while pollutants and UV rays enter the skin, which results in inflammation, skin aging, and apathy.
Niacinamide acts like a builder who follows a blueprint during construction work. The product maintains skin hydration through its ability to enhance lipid production and ceramide restoration, which creates a stronger barrier that decreases trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). The Dzirus Niacinamide Serum functions to develop a protective barrier that produces skin that remains calm and stable while becoming more resistant to damage.
Inflammation Reduction: Soothing at the Cellular Level
Inflammation might be the sneakiest of skin health's foes. Whether it's acne, sensitivity, or
over-exfoliated pinkness, too often it's hidden inflammation doing the dirty work.
Science shows that Niacinamide inhibits the action of inflammatory cytokines - those tiny
messengers that make your skin go wild. This helps those searching for how to reduce
inflammation in the body or how to calm red, irritated skin find long-term balance and relief. If you’ve ever searched for how to reduce inflammation in the body or how to calm red, irritated skin, Niacinamide is one of the most dermatologist-approved answers. It doesn’t just soothe the surface - it restores balance deep within the epidermis.
Key takeaway: A calm skin barrier is a healthy one, and Niacinamide is your peace-builder.
Sebum Control: The Oil Balancer
Oil does not always equal oily skin; more often, it indicates that your skin is dry and trying to compensate for it. That's where Niacinamide shines. Niacinamide Serum effectively regulates sebum production, and it gets your skin to its natural equilibrium - neither shiny nor dry. When used consistently, it minimizes pore size, disintegrates blemishes, and leaves your complexion looking even. This makes Niacinamide Serum ideal for acne, combination, or oily skin types - anyone tired of blotting paper becoming the ultimate accessory.
Pro Tip: Pair your Niacinamide Serum with the Dzirus Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Apply Hyaluronic Acid first to moisturize, followed by Niacinamide to seal and balance - the ultimate two-step to barrier repair.
Collagen Production: Quiet Strength from Within
Here's something few individuals are aware of: Niacinamide is a collagen-promoting product, actually boosting collagen production. It doesn't shock it like a treatment - it maintains the creation of collagen by improving cellular metabolism.
As a result, your skin becomes more toned, smoother, and more elastic over time. Fine lines become less prominent due to your barrier function improving, i.e., your skin is actually able to hold onto moisture and elasticity.
So, whereas the Vitamin C Serum is lightening, Niacinamide is working silently below, building up the collagen framework of the skin and causing each level to feel tighter and fuller.
The Perfect Balance: Smooth, Soothing, Supple
What is special about the Dzirus Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Serum is its balance - no tingling, no stinging peeling, just calm repair.
• Reduces inflammation without irritating
• Regulates sebum to control shine
• Strengthening the skin barrier to retain moisture
• Supports collagen for elasticity and firmness
• Even tone for clearly serene skin
Its light weight disappears instantly, no residue - just serene, hydrated skin that feels protected, not strangled.
The Dzirus Philosophy: All Serums Are Made to Perfection
We're a balance, not a hierarchy kind of team. All of our Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, and
Niacinamide Serums march side-by-side - each working on a different corner of skin health.
When Combined, they create what we like to refer to as the "Triangle of Balance":
• Vitamin C – glow and antioxidant protection
• Hyaluronic – deep hydration
• Niacinamide – barrier support and oil equilibrium
The return? Calming, nourished, protected skin - without doing too much.
Pro Application Tip
After washing, apply a couple of drops of Niacinamide Serum to damp skin, morning and night. Follow with your favorite moisturizer.
And daytime use? Always top off with SPF - because a healthy barrier can benefit from a bit of protection.
How to Use Niacinamide Serum in Your Routine
The beauty of Niacinamide Serum lies in its versatility. It doesn’t demand complicated routines - it just fits in, quietly upgrading everything else you’re doing.
Let’s break it down simply:
Morning Routine:
1. Cleanse: Start fresh with a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser to remove oil and impurities.
2. Tone (optional): Use a hydrating toner to prep the skin for absorption.
3. Use Niacinamide Serum: When your skin is still slightly damp, put on 2–3 drops of
Niacinamide Serum and pat lightly on your face and neck.
4. Moisturize: Lock in the water with a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer.
5. SPF: Finish with sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). Remind yourself, a strengthened barrier
still needs daily UV protection.
Night Routine
1. Cleanse: Remove the day's makeup, dirt, and sunscreen.
2. Use Niacinamide Serum: Use it before thicker serums or creams. It'll calm redness and
start barrier repair at night.
3. Layer (Optional): You can mix Niacinamide with Hyaluronic Acid for extra hydration or
Retinol Serum for collagen benefits.
4. Moisturizer: Always top with a rich night cream to seal everything in.
Pro Tip: Double up on Niacinamide Serum for continued results. Every day use = long-term calm, clear skin.
Common Niacinamide Mistakes to Steer Clear Of
Even a superhero ingredient can fail if used inappropriately. Here's what not to do:
1. Over-Application
Only a few drops are needed. Over-application may cause temporary dryness or irritation - more is not better.
2. Incorrect Application
Avoid layering Niacinamide over abrasive acids (like AHAs or BHAs) at the same time. Instead, alternate - use acids in the evening and Niacinamide in the morning.
3. Skipping Moisturizer
Niacinamide Serum improves barrier function but also needs a moisturizer to seal in moisture. It's a collaboration: the serum repairs, the moisturizer protects.
4. Overnight Miracles
Repairing the barrier takes patience. The magic will not occur overnight - it occurs gradually, day in and day out, and forever.
How Niacinamide Works On All Skin Types
The great thing about Niacinamide Serum is that it respects all skin types - dry, oily, sensitive, or mature.
For Oily or Acne-Prone Skin:
Its sebum-regulating capacity smooths out excess oil without depleting. It also minimizes
breakouts and clogged pores to a bare minimum. Gradually, your skin looks matte and in
balance.
For Dry or Sensitive Skin:
It strengthens your skin barrier and minimizes redness, allowing your skin to hold moisture longer. Apply it with Hyaluronic Acid for intense moisturizing.
For Mature Skin:
Niacinamide stimulates the growth of collagen and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and skin imperfections. When used with a ceramide-based moisturizer, firmness and elasticity are regained.
For Combination Skin:
Combines oily and dry zones - the ideal middle-ground solution.
How Niacinamide Interacts With Other DziRUS Serums
All serums at DziRUS have been formulated to harmonize - never compete with each other. All
serums are equal serums, which complement each other.
Here's how Niacinamide gets along with all:
With Vitamin C Serum: Stabilizes and calms skin, and Vitamin C brightens and protects
against free radicals.
• With Hyaluronic Acid Serum: Hydrates deeply, and Niacinamide seals the moisture in
and fortifies the barrier.
• With Retinol Serum: Reduces potential redness of retinol, while maintaining barrier
repair and increasing firmness.
• With Collagen Serum: Increases elasticity, keeping a smoother, younger texture.
Dzirus Rule: Don't overdo it - layer wisely. Each serum has a job; let them assist, not compete.
