Niacinamide has been one of the most-talked about skin-care ingredients of the year. Countless brands have launched products starring the dermatologist-recommended ingredient, the latest being the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops (£31).
A quick recap: niacinamide is a type of vitamin B3 that, when applied topically, helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, revive your skin tone, and, most notably, decrease inflammation, which helps with issues like acne and rosacea. In addition to niacinamide, Glow Recipe's new gel-like serum features watermelon (hence the name), which is full of antioxidants, as well as hyaluronic acid, and moringa oil. Non-comedogenic (which means it won't clog pores), the illuminating formula can be used before your makeup as a glow-enhancing, redness-reducing primer, or even on top of makeup, serving as a very dewy highlighter.
