As with anything applied to the skin, there's always a possibility that you might be sensitive to niacinamide. Though it's not as potent as, say, an AHA or retinol, some have experienced mild stinging, burning, itching, or redness. It is best to test a small area before slathering all over. To do this, apply a small amount to your forearm and assess for possible reactions over the next 72 hours. If everything is fine, you're good to apply to your face and see the benefits of this skincare super vitamin.
