Niacinamide: The Multi-Tasking Brightener

Niacinamide, also known as Vitamin B3, is a water-soluble vitamin that supports the skin’s natural barrier. It has gained attention in recent years as a multi-functional skincare ingredient.

What are the benefits? (For skin and mind)

Niacinamide helps brighten uneven skin tone, minimize the look of pores, balance oil production, and smooth fine lines. It also supports the skin’s barrier function—perfect for today’s sensitive, reactive skin environments.

When your skin feels healthy and clear, your mind naturally feels more at ease. Niacinamide supports not only your appearance but your emotional relationship with your reflection.

What Japanese foods contain it?

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is found in foods like maguro (tuna), liver, natto (fermented soybeans), and brown rice—all nourishing staples in Japanese cuisine. WALALA reimagines this internal nourishment as outer care for your skin.
