Advanced Skin Care and Beauty Treatment Reviews - SkinGeek.com

Depending on what kind of skin you have (oily/sensitive/dry), decide what base you want to use for the niacinamide to go into.
You can use contact solution or purified water to start.
Most commercial serums and light lotions will do, however try to avoid products with high concentrations of vitamin C or AHA in it as it works on a different pH than niacin.

Purchase a bottle of high quality niacinamide capsules from either Vitacost (pharmaceutical grade oral supplement http://www.vitacost.com/NSI-Vitamin-B3-Niacinamide ) or from SkinActives.com (for cosmetic grade pure niacinamide)  http://www.skinactives.com/product/detail.aspx?prodID=73 )

The Vitacost is easier to work with and more convenient because it is in oral capsules that is easy to open, while the SkinActives one requires apparatus and care because it is pure and concentrated with no fillers.

This recipe is PER APPLICATION, so that each time you are applying, the active ingredients are FRESH.
It will not look pretty or clean, unless you vigorously blend it in the palm of your hands.

Use about 1-2 pea sized droplets of your base (serum, water, contact solution, etc).
Add 1/2 to 1 capsule of the Vitacost niacinamide or .5g (tiny sliver like 2 sesame seeds) of the SkinActives niacinamide to your liquid base.

If you want to make it into a mask, use the Vitacost version because it is cheaper and you can use up to 2 full capsules for your face.

RUB ALL OVER YOUR FACE or effected area.

Let sit for at least 30 minutes before rinsing or use a cream or sunscreen over it to blend it in if you prefer to have it on all day.

Please let me know how it goes.

I appreciate your readership and inquiry!
