How the Niacinamide Booster Works
There are many amazing, rock-star ingredients for your skin that stand out above the rest. Examples you’ve likely heard of include retinol, vitamin C, antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides. Another one to absolutely add to your list is niacinamide!
Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide is a well-researched, proven multitasking ingredient that addresses a surprising range of skincare concerns, no matter your age or skin type! In short, it’s one of the genius ingredients for your skin.
Paula’s Choice Skincare includes niacinamide in many of our products, but if you have stubborn or lingering concerns, like large pores, wrinkles, post-breakout marks, and uneven skin tone, then a higher concentration of niacinamide might be the solution you’ve been looking for! That’s why we created one of our most extraordinary, versatile products — BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster.
What is Paula’s Choice BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster?
BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster is a feather-light liquid formula containing a 10% concentration of niacinamide (vitamin B3) to help your skin’s uppermost layers appear renewed, clarified, and more even. Niacinamide also minimises enlarged, congested pores.
But that’s not all! This booster also improves stubborn signs of aging such as dull, uneven skin tone, hastens the fading of post-breakout marks, and minimises the appearance of skin discolourations and wrinkles. And it does all these while also helping to preserve your skin’s critical moisture barrier for a more supple feel and healthier look. See what we mean by multitasking?!
As impressive as niacinamide is on its own, here at Paula’s Choice Skincare, based on our extensive research of online literature, we have discovered that skin always needs more than one special ingredient. So, our BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster also contains skin-enhancing vitamin C, ultra-light moisturizing ingredients, and antioxidants (licorice extract) to soothe your skin and boost your skin’s hydration.
How to Use BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster
BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster is truly a universal formula that works perfectly for all skin types — even normal skin. You can apply 2–3 drops every morning and/or evening to your face (including around the eyes) and neck after cleansing, toning, and exfoliating, and follow with your serum and moisturizer.
Alternatively, you can add a few drops to your moisturizer or any other Paula’s Choice targeted solution or booster you’re using. (Just don’t mix it into your sunscreen, as doing so may dilute your sun protection.)
Not sure about using BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster daily? Although it’s perfectly fine to do so, if you’re looking to streamline your skincare routine, or if you’re already using several Paula’s Choice boosters, it’s OK to do it on alternate days. For example, apply our BOOST 1% Retinol Booster one night, BOOST 10% Niacinamide Booster the next evening, and a few drops of BOOST C15 Super Booster as part of your daytime routine. Experiment and see which method and frequency of application works best for you.
