Niacinamide is one of the most versatile and well-researched actives in skincare — it brightens dark spots, evens uneven skin tone, minimizes pores, controls excess oil, and strengthens the skin barrier, all without the irritation of stronger actives like retinoids or high-concentration acids. The BelleVie Niacinamide Gel Moisturiser 50ml delivers 5% niacinamide — the clinically effective concentration — in a lightweight, fast-absorbing gel base with ginkgo biloba for antioxidant support and microcirculation, and algin (marine algae extract) for soothing hydration. A niacinamide moisturiser and treatment in one: hydrates, brightens, and refines with every use.

Suitable for normal, combination, and oily skin. Lightweight, non-greasy, and designed for daily morning and evening use. Vegan, ECOCERT certified, and EU-made.

Key Ingredients

• Niacinamide 5% (Vitamin B3) — a clinically proven multi-tasking active that brightens dark spots and post-blemish marks, evens uneven skin tone, minimizes pores, regulates sebum production, and strengthens the skin barrier — at 5%, the concentration shown in clinical studies to deliver visible results without irritation
• Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract (organic) — a well-studied botanical antioxidant that improves microcirculation, supports skin vitality, and protects against the environmental stressors that contribute to dullness and uneven tone
• Algin (Marine Algae Extract) — a soothing, hydrating active derived from seaweed that calms the skin, supports moisture retention, and provides a smooth, comfortable gel texture
• Glycerin — a well-studied humectant that attracts and retains moisture in the skin, maintaining hydration levels and comfort throughout the day

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 5% niacinamide do for the skin?

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) at 5% delivers visible results across multiple skin concerns simultaneously: it brightens dark spots and post-blemish marks, evens uneven skin tone, minimizes pores, regulates sebum for oily skin, strengthens the skin barrier, and improves overall skin texture and radiance. It is one of the most well-tolerated brightening actives available — suitable for daily use on all skin types including sensitive skin.

Is this niacinamide good for acne-prone skin?

Yes — niacinamide at 5% regulates sebum production, minimizes pores, and reduces the post-blemish dark marks that acne leaves behind. The lightweight gel formula does not clog pores and layers cleanly under SPF and makeup. For targeted blemish treatment, pair with the Acne Spot Care 15ml.

Why does this contain alcohol?

The formula contains a small amount of alcohol, which acts as a preservative and mild antiseptic to maintain formula stability and support the purifying effect on oily and blemish-prone skin. At the concentration used, it does not cause dryness or barrier disruption with regular daily use.

Can I use niacinamide with vitamin C?

Yes — niacinamide and vitamin C are compatible and complementary. Apply the Vitamin C Serum first on clean skin, allow to absorb, then apply this niacinamide gel moisturiser. Together they provide enhanced brightening, antioxidant protection, and dark spot reduction.

How long does it take to see results from niacinamide?

Most users notice improved hydration and smoother skin texture within 2–4 weeks. Visible brightening of dark spots and improvement in uneven skin tone typically builds over 6–8 weeks of consistent daily use. Always use SPF in the morning to protect brightening results from UV-induced pigmentation.

Is BelleVie vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes — all BelleVie products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free, ECOCERT certified, and formulated and manufactured in the EU to the highest cosmetic safety standards.
