Why Combine Niacinamide and Sunscreen?
Sunscreen acts as a "shield," protecting the skin from harmful UVB and UVA rays—major causes of hyperpigmentation, premature aging, and even skin cancer. However, sunscreen alone may not fulfill all the skin's needs, especially for damaged or vulnerable skin.
This is where Niacinamide steps in. This ingredient not only helps repair damaged skin but also brightens and hydrates it. When paired with sunscreen, the combined benefits multiply, offering enhanced protection and nourishment for your skin.
Enhanced Protection Against Environmental Damage
Sunlight is not the only factor that harms the skin; pollution, dust, and free radicals also take a toll on its health. While sunscreen blocks UV rays, Niacinamide works as a potent antioxidant, shielding the skin from environmental aggressors.
Using Niacinamide alongside sunscreen not only strengthens the skin’s defenses but also reduces signs of irritation and damage caused by external factors.
Supports Skin Barrier Recovery and Strengthening
UV rays can weaken the skin’s natural barrier, leading to dehydration, roughness, and sensitivity. Niacinamide is known for its ability to rebuild and fortify the skin barrier. When combined with sunscreen, it speeds up recovery and keeps the skin hydrated and healthy.
A strong skin barrier also minimizes the risk of conditions like hyperpigmentation, dullness, or extreme sensitivity after sun exposure.
Reduces the Risk of Premature Aging with Complementary Benefits
Premature aging is often exacerbated by unprotected exposure to the sun. Sunscreen helps mitigate UV damage, while Niacinamide stimulates collagen production, reducing fine lines and improving skin elasticity.
The combination of these two products works to minimize early signs of aging, leaving the skin firmer and more radiant.
How to Properly Use Niacinamide and Sunscreen
To achieve optimal results, follow these steps when using Niacinamide and sunscreen:
- Order of Application: After cleansing and toning, apply a serum or cream containing Niacinamide. Allow it to absorb fully, then apply sunscreen over your entire face.
- Product Selection: Opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Pair it with a Niacinamide product suitable for your skin type (oily, dry, or sensitive).
- Timing: Apply sunscreen 20–30 minutes before going outdoors and reapply every 2–3 hours if staying outside.
