Dermatologist Note

Combines niacinamide with a multi-vitamin complex (B3, B5, C). The synergy between niacinamide and vitamin C in this formula is carefully balanced — at the right concentrations and with buffering agents, the historically controversial combination can be used effectively for brightening without causing niacin flush.

Based on published clinical literature and dermatological research.
