com Niacinamide Powder - Niacinamide 500mg - Vitamin B3 Niacinamide - Vitamin B3 Powder - Vitamin B3 Nicotinamide 500mg - 500mg Nicotinamide per Serving (5 Kilograms - 11 lbs)

I make my own cocktail of goodies for intake, every second day. NAD is included in it. I also add it to my skin creams. The powder is good quality. I don’t taste it as it goes into capsules.

I love this stuff for what it does to my skin! I use it topically in my face products. I mix it in toners and lotions (sometimes even my spf). Topical niacinamide has been proven to be a somewhat effective anti-aging/acne treatment in numerous studies (so have vitamin c and green tea). I like it because i have sensitive skin but I find it calming and it definitely fades skin discoloration over time. I also feel like it makes my skin *behave* better (stays better moisturized but not greasy), if that makes any sense. I know products from Olay and Cerave (to name a few) contain niacinamide but they break me out so I can't use them.Most studies used it at a 5% concentration (so 1 to 20 ratio *thank you Viking Fan) and it works best at a PH of 5-6 (so don't bother mixing it with AHA or BHA). You don't have to mix it with anything special; you can just mix it with water and use it as a toner (if you don't use a preservative you should make it every day lest it go bad on you). Keep in mind, if you go any higher than 5% you may get a flushing effect--in fact you might get a flushing effect even at 5% if you're sensitive to it (some people are and while some people eventually grow more tolerant some people just can't use niacinamide without a bad reaction).Lots of people like to mix it with with N-Acetyl Glucosamine Powder (25 gm) Reduces hyperpigmentation Improves skin tone.To give you some ideas of how to use it, this has always been a popular recipe on Makeupalley dot com:"* 85 ml distilled witch hazel (Boots brand right now, which contains approximately 14% alcohol, as such, no preservative is required)* 10 ml vegetable glycerin* 5 g (approximately 1.5 teaspoons for those who don't/won't weigh it out - I prefer to weight it) niacinamide powder."--(i think it's "JoshuaP's" recipe)This is another amazon reviewer's recipe ("Gattu"):5 tsp. rose water10 drops of licorice extract½ tsp. Glucosamine (5%) --BulkSupplements½ tsp. Niacinamide (5%) --Nature and Nurture½ tsp. Glycerin½ tsp aloe gel ( I almost took 1 tsp)2 tsp vitamin C ester powder (20%) --BulkSupplementsOf course you can also just mix it with water and spray or pat on your face... Sometimes i've mixed it with other products and toners (like Thayer's Witch Hazel). Sometimes i've even just scooped a bit out and mixed it with the daily squirt of my face lotion or SPF (very unscientific, of me). This stuff dissolves really well, so its really versatile.

Product as described. Fair price

I like this product the only thing I don’t like about it is the taste is really sower! I never try this product before this is my first time using this, but just the after taste and the Bitterness don’t like it but after all good product. 🤷‍♀️

I originally bought niacinamide as I've been reading about nicotinamide riboside and its potential anti-aging effects, and I wanted to complement Niagen with vitamin B3 as another NAD precursor. As I did the research, I've read somewhere that niacinamide may be a better precursor to NAD than nicotinic acid (vitamin B3 comes in two forms: nicotinic acid and niacinamide). So I ordered this powder, only to read that niacinamide can actually suppress sirtuins, which is not what you'd want. So nicotinic acid form of vit. B3 would be the way to go after all, even though it may cause a flush effect.So I thought, well, I've already opened this bag of niacinamide; what will I do with this now? Throw away?So I did some research and apparently niacinamide has a great effect on your skin, rendering both a Botox-like effect and mitigating acne. I've been acne-prone my whole life, and it does help with that. It also smooths your skin, it's UNBELIEVABLE. Apparently it's part of some anti-aging products as well.What I do: mix some spoonfuls of niacinamide with distilled water (I slightly heat up the water in the microwave first). I don't know what percent solution that is, I try to add a lot. I put it on my skin. If you do it a few times, it will result in your skin feeling hot and opening your pores. Then I use the calcium bentonite clay (Aztec Secrets) in this manner: put some niacinamide solution on a saucer, dip your finger, dip your finger in the bentonite clay; put it on your face as if it was liquid makeup. If you put too much, just use some more niacinamide solution to even it out and spread it out. It looks GREAT if used in the proper amount (you may need to experiment) and treats acne wonderfully (as we speak, I have nothing on my face!). That's the nighttime routine; during the day I do the same, but use a vitamin C/DMAE solution. I've read YOU SHOULDN'T MIX VITAMIN C AND NIACINAMIDE as these two can create a compound rendering the water solution useless, or create hydrogen peroxide on your skin in the presence of UV light and oxygen. I'm not a chemist, but after I've read some articles, I separate these.DMAE powder I use I purchased from Bulk Supplements as well, top notch both to boost your mental clarity and to rejuvenate your skin.All in all, best mistake ever. Bulk Supplements is a company I trust, I've purchased several products, from Gingko powder (SUPERB!) to taurine. I hope they keep expanding their offer. Pterostilbene and nicotinamide riboside would be nice, for instance, even though I imagine the latter request might be far-fetched. I checked Bulk Supplements website, they don't have it :). I tried to purchase Pterostilbene in bulk on ebay; it's available, but I was scared to just buy some powder from a seller I don't trust. Quality astaxanthin would be nice as well, Bulk Supplements.
