Niacinamide

by the Enclir team 2 min · aug 17, 2026

What it is. Vitamin B3, a water-soluble vitamin that is one of the most widely used and best-tolerated ingredients in skincare.

why it matters

Niacinamide helps balance the look of oil, which many people notice alongside breakouts after 40. It helps support the skin barrier, which matters when skin feels drier. And it helps even the look of marks left after a blemish. Most skin types tolerate it well.

how Enclir uses it

Included in Encap S+ alongside encapsulated salicylic acid and azelaic acid, for clearer-, calmer- and more even-looking skin.
