This is the best niacinamide and glycerin product on the market in all categories!!
I have written about Niactil before for the old packaging. Thankfully, the formula has been allowed to remain unchanged because it is so good, so good, so good that it can't be made better. I have been using this since the product came out on the Swedish market, so it has been more than 10 years. It is a staple in my arsenal, and I use it every day. Niactil is a dry and moisture-deprived skin's best friend! It provides both a lot of moisture and enough moisture-binding and softening glycerin to also help a dry and dehydrated skin retain moisture. And it is a perfect base to use before applying your moisturizing cream or oil. Many moisture-binding products are far too watery and thin to give a dry skin the help it needs. But Niactil does what most others can't. The niacinamide soothes redness and evens out skin tone and also leads to a softer appearance of the pores in the long run. If you are worried as a dry skin about Niactil containing salicylic acid, you don't need to be, because the amount is small, and together with the glycerin and niacinamide, the possibility of irritation is counteracted. At least that's how I experience it. Niactil also has the amount of niacinamide that has the best evidence regarding good effect without irritation. So overall, Niactil is also a product that helps a lot for skin that easily becomes red and irritated and is rosacea-friendly. It is simply a little lifesaver in need that keeps the skin in fine balance and also serves as a perfect base under makeup. I also use it as a buffer when I use prescription tretinoin cream because I have dry and sensitive skin, and the combination is almost perfect. Nowadays, they have made a new variant that is lighter, which some with oilier skin types might find better. But this one is really universal, so if you are unsure which one suits your skin best, my suggestion is to try this one first if you want something with a little more oomph. For those who do not have a bad skin barrier or are super dry like me, you can probably even sometimes get away with using Niactil alone.. Considering that you get 100 ml and the company Elixir, now Face Formula, has also kept the price at the same level it has been for many years - which I think they deserve all the credit for. In short, this is the product of everything I use that I will never replace. It is a perfect formula!1 product in post This is the best niacinamide and glycerin product on the market in all categories!!1503 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Wonderful product!!⚡️
This cream has actually been a steady favorite of mine since 2017, so that says a lot! 🥰✨ I remember it was out of stock for a while, and I searched a long time for something to replace it – but nothing gave me the same immediate glow 🥹💛 What I love about it is that it gives lots of moisture and a really nice glow right away. The skin simply looks fresher and more radiant ✨😍 It feels light on the skin but still provides good moisture. A big plus is that the tube is a whole 100 ml, so it lasts a long time 👏🥰 I often use it as a kind of serum before I apply Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream on top, and that combination works great for my skin to get lots of moisture 💛 #konkurranseinflutester1 product in post Wonderful product!!⚡️55 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Hi
Can this be used together with retinal?1 product in post Hi343 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The comment was made 1 weekHi Jill 😊 Yes, this generally works well to use together with retinal. Since Niactil also contains salicylic acid, the combination can feel a bit active for sensitive or unaccustomed skin at first, so it can be good to introduce the products gradually. Many choose to use Niactil in the morning and retinal in the evening, but they also work fine in the same routine if the skin tolerates it. Have a nice day! 🌼1 likes

Any difference?

DIFFERENCES?
What is the difference between Clinisoothe Skin Purifier 100 ml and Face Formula Nicatil?342 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The comment was made 1 weekHi Helena 😊 Clinisoothe Skin Purifier and Face Formula Nicatil mainly differ in how they work with the skin and the results they are intended to provide. Clinisoothe Skin Purifier, which is more like a toner, is a very simple, soothing product primarily used to quickly calm irritation, redness, and sensitivity. It acts more as support for the skin when it is stressed or unbalanced and helps create a clean and calm skin environment. Face Formula Nicatil, on the other hand, is a serum that works more long-term with the skin’s structure and balance. It contains niacinamide and is aimed at reducing redness over time, evening out skin tone, and improving pores and sebum production. It fits better as a treatment product in a routine where you want to see gradual improvements. These can also be used well in the same routine; use Clinisoothe first as a toner and then Nicatil as a serum. Have a nice day! 🌼1 likes

Atopic Skin
Hi, how does this work on atopic skin?388 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 2 weeksHejsan Anette!☺️ It can definitely work well on atopic skin ☁️ Niactil contains niacinamide which helps to soothe the skin and strengthen the skin barrier. However, it also contains a bit of salicylic acid, so if your skin is very dry or irritated, I would recommend starting gently, for example 2-3 days a week during your evening routine 💫 Take care!2 likes

Niactil 4% Face Formula
If you are thinking of using this as a serum. Which moisturizer should you preferably use then? Tips?1 product in post Niactil 4% Face Formula1218 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 1 monthHi Kirsi 👋🏻 First and foremost, this is a really great serum! My best tip when using a serum with active ingredients is to go for a cream that is a bit gentler. I really like this one from Kiehls, and it comes in different sizes if you want to try a smaller one to start with lyko.com/sv/kiehls/kiehls-ultra-facial-cream-50ml1 likes
