Niacinamide Powder is a water-soluble cosmetic active used in skincare to support the look of more even tone, a more balanced skin feel, and barrier-support style formulas. It is nature identical and produced under controlled conditions to BP grade quality, which makes it a practical, consistent raw material for serums, creams, lotions, and gels.
It performs best in formulas near pH 6 and belongs in the water phase rather than in anhydrous systems. This is a formulation ingredient, not a finished serum. Why we love it: We choose to stock Niacinamide Powder because it is one of the most versatile water-phase actives for modern skincare making.
It is easy to formulate with, broad in application, and useful across many balanced daily-use product types.
