@@DrDrayzdayhi I’m Loretta De Los Rios using Frank’s account to make this comment with his permission. Thank you for the information. Can you assist me and others herein about the comment COFFEE made! They replied to you saying that is why they like using a product with vitamin C Niacinamide. She replied saying GLOBAL BEAUTY. I LOOKED IT UP BUT THERE ARE IS ANOTHER COMPANY I WITH THE SIMILAR NAME. SO I AM TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT. SINCE THE GLOBAL BEAUTY WEBSITE DOES NOT INDICATE INGREDIENTS. I HAD TO SEND A MESSAGE. AND THE OTHER COMPANY NAMED GLOBAL BEAUTY CARE HAS A VITAMIN C WITH NIACINAMIDE BUT ALSO WITJ GLYCOLIC ACID AND LACTIC ACID AND OTHER INGREDIENTS THIS COST $9.99 . PLEASE ADVISED DR. DRAY
ALSO WHAT NIACINAMIDE PRODUCT DO YOU SUGGEST FOR THE ARM PITS AND THE FACE. I SEE YOU SAID 5% OF NIACINAMIDE IS SUFFICIENT. PLEASE RECOMMENDED WHAT PRODUCTS. I FOUND A MASK FROM THE BRAND FARMACY BUT IT IS 10% AND I WOULD LIKE PRODUCTS WITH 5%. THANK YOU.🤲
Thank you for the info Dr. Dray!! ❤❤
Great information and Im very happy you do not “dumb it down” too much for us, your loving viewers 😊 Im taking notes.
I’ve found niacinamide has improved the texture of my skin. Vitamin C has mostly improved my skin firmness and not much effect on dark spots. Thank you so much for mentioning vitamin C and skin shedding! I have that issue.
Which brand?
Which brand are you using for both the serums?
Much appreciation for the vast knowledge that you share with your viewers! Every video teaches me something new! Now using Niacinamide to combat too many years of no sunscreen use!
I have super sensitive over 60 skin and have never been able to use vitamin C in my skin products until I switched to Naturium products a few months ago. I have been using the Multi Peptide Advanced serum (has ferulic acid and niacinamide) at night and the Multi Peptide Moisturizer (has encapsulated methylated vitamin C and niacinamide) during the day. I have seen a real difference in my skin texture and brightness without irritation. I also have started using their retinaldehyde cream serum at night with the Plant Ceramide Rich Moisture Cream as the last step. So far, I am impressed with their products.
Hi I’m Loretta De Los Rios using Frank’s account to make this comment with his permission . I’m glad that is working for you. Since you have hyper sensitive skin like mine. Let me suggested a vitamin C serum it is from SKIN DEVA. 🙏
PSA for everyone with atopic skin: criminally underrated niacinamide product that I will never stop using (I have rosacea) is Bioderma Atoderm Gel Creme. Best gel creme on the market. Super gentle, super hydrating and is amazing under sunscreen. Also, the bottle is huge.
It says its for the body not face.
@@user-pt4xx4wu2ithat doesn’t mean you can’t use it on the face unless it contains fragrance then that “could” cause irritation.
Thank you! Will look for it.
It does say for face and body
Bioderma is the only cream that helps with atopic exema of my son. I tried many creams but this is the best and its fragrance free.
Personally I use both vitamin C (Skinceuticals) in the am and CerVa PM at night love em both.

Thank you for the content, which is always very informative and based on scientific evidence, fact that helps us a lot to make better decisions regarding the type of product that best meets our personal needs! Excellent job, Dr. Dray! Team niacinamide here!
Thanks for the clarification of overlap and differentiation of these two ingredients. As I approach 80, my skin noticeably yellowed, and I could not find and explanation for it. Good to know it’s not something to worry about.
Niacinamide for me. I use the Paula’s Choice Ultra-Light Super Antioxidant Concentrate Serum in the morning with Niacinamide and a form of stabilized Vit C, and Vit e. I use Elf Holy Hydration before Tretinoin in the evening, it also has Niacinamide. Most Vit C serums are too irritating and I don’t have the patience to babysit their short shelf life.
i have used that pauls choice product for years!!! if you look at the ingredient list , i dont know why you would need anything else!!!!!!! i also use lots of sunscreen and retin a….seriously, wha else do you need?? keeps it simple..such a great product
@@maryannbarrett6696I’ve using that PC serum for years also and I agree with you, it has everything. I like to keep my routine simple too.
@@paulachristie7807 I’m another PC fan! Great brand and they often have sales which makes them not as expensive as they first seem. In fact I have 11 PC products still unopened laying around thanks to their sales xD
I’m team both. I use walgreen’s version/dupe of cerave vitamin C serum in the morning. I then use the real deal cerave AM moisturizer with SPF. I have tried the store brand dupes of this and with my older skin I like the thickness of the cerave one over the store brands. At night I use either the actual cerave (purple label jar) night moisturizer or the walgreens version. Both are great to help buffer my tretinoin. It was my struggles with using tretinoin that had me find this channel. I have shared your videos on KP with my sister and she has reported great results with the drug store products that you recommend. So thank you again!!!
Very informative. You never disappoint to teach us the dos and don’ts. Thanks so much.
Niacinamide has helped me overall with small wrinkles but I will say Vitamin C definitely brightens my skin a bit more!
So I guess both being used is beneficial
I feel like I’m in school again and I love it. You are such an amazing teacher. I love learning about the skin. And all that you have to offer and then applying what I need. Thank you so much for taking the time. You’re just beautiful and adorable and I. Enjoy watching you pretty much almost every day when I can
Wow! A biology and chemistry lesson. Terrific information, Dr. Dray.
I really appreciate the detailed description of how these two ingredients work. I took my sensitive skin quite a while to get used to anything that contained niacinamide but now my skin does well with it. I’ve never been able to use anything with vitamin c. Thanks, as always, for all that you do. You’re awesome, Dr Dray! Happy Monday!! I hope you have a blessed evening. 💙

When I use anything with niacinamide, my skin looks like I have a sunburn. No problem with Timeless 10% Vitamin C. My skin is definitely firmer and brighter.
I enjoy using both. Niacinamide at night and vitamin c in the morning. After trying several vitamin v products I finally found one that I love from Geek and Gorgeous. It is super affordable being less than one third what I had been paying for Vit c. Also they make a new batch every week so when yours reaches you it is only two to three weeks old so it stays fresh much longer than other brands. I also love the results that it’s giving me.
