IngredientWhat it isWhat it does for skin
NiacinamideA form of vitamin B3, one of the most studied ingredients in cosmetic dermatology.Strengthens the skin barrier by boosting ceramide production, helps even out tone by limiting pigment transfer to skin cells, and can reduce the look of enlarged pores.
Ceramide NPOne specific, well-studied type of ceramide used in skincare formulas.Reinforces the skin barrier and helps it retain moisture, the same core ceramide function.
TocopherolThe chemical name for vitamin E as typically used in skincare formulas.Helps neutralize free radicals from UV and pollution exposure and supports the skin's moisture barrier.
Ascorbic AcidPure vitamin C, the classic reference form and among the most extensively studied, though prone to oxidizing (degrading) once opened.A strong antioxidant that helps brighten and even skin tone; actual potency depends heavily on concentration, pH, and formulation, which isn't always disclosed, so it isn't automatically stronger than a stable derivative at an adequate dose.
