But it’s not for everyone—some people experience irritation, flushing, or even sensitivity when using niacinamide. Dr. Sethi explains how niacinamide works, its benefits, and how to choose the right concentration for your skin type. She also discusses when it’s best to avoid this ingredient, especially for those with sensitive skin or after certain procedures like chemical peels and microneedling. Whether you’re a skincare enthusiast or just curious about how to maximize your routine, this episode offers valuable insights into niacinamide’s role in skincare and how to use it effectively. Tune in to learn how to get the most out of niacinamide while avoiding common pitfalls.
