Let's continue with the beauty talk 💚 Dah lama post ni terkubur in draft section from August last year. Kalau lah ni kimchi, mesti dah sedap agaknya sebab dah lama perap 💣

Today I would like to share anything that related to this 'NIACINAMIDE' . I see that products with niacinamide nowadays become a trending, so why not you gain some knowledge first before purchasing it ?

💙💚💛💜

Niacinamide is made from niacin, also known as vitamin B3 and nicotinic acid. VItamin B is called retinol. Niacin can be found in all cells and present in greatest amounts in tissues that are more metabolically active; like the brain, heart, liver and skeletal muscle.

Niacinamide has the ability to treat some skin conditions including aging skin, acne, psoriasis (scaly patches) and rosacea (redness usually on cheeks and nose). Its anti-inflammatory properties make it effective for treating acne, psoriasis and rosacea especially, due to it reducing the clogging of dead skin cells with sebum. If you using a product that contains 4% of niacinamide, you can see that it can reduce your acne. But, if you're is a senstive one, you need to use the lower amount of niacinamide in a product.

Reasons why you need these niacinamide in your skincare routine

• Boosting the immunity of the skin.
• Improve epidermal barried performance because niacinamide produce ceramides that can keep your skin strong and prevent your skin from losing a lot of water to keep it moisture.
• Improve redness and blotchiness in the skin by daily application of niacinamide.
• Regulated oil flow which is good for those with oily skin. You can add niacinamide on daily skincare routine rather than wash your face many times to look fresh.
• Protects skin from infrared light because niacinamide protects skin from heat.
• Hyper-pigmentation, niacinamide will assist in the reduction of uneven pigmentation by slowing down the transfer of melanin to your skin’s epidermis.
• Minimise lines and wrinkles.
• No more dull and sallow skin as niacinamide is an antioxidant can reduces the negative impact of oxidative stress.

Do you know how much of niacinamide is enough for us ?

The best formulation of a product is contains 10% of niacinamide. So, when you're looking at the ingredients list, the niacinamide should be near to the top.

When we should apply this on skin ?

You can apply this twice daily in morning or at night. But, if your skin is sensitive because this niacinamide is quite strong, so you can choose whether want to use it in the morning before apply your moisturiser and sunscreen or use it at night with your night cream . 
 
Can we use vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and niacinamide in the same product or applied at the same time in separate products?

Actually this combination between niacinamide and vitamin C is fine and bring benefit to our skin !

The research this misconception is based on was conducted in the 1960s; the forms of niacinamide and vitamin C used in this study were not stabilized—although niacinamide itself is very stable. The base of the formula used in this study was also far different than today’s sophisticated skincare formulas.  Today, cosmetic chemists know how to combine niacinamide and vitamin C in the ideal base formulas that enhance their compatibility.

The other common concern we’ve seen about combining these two ingredients has to do with the pH range. The concern is that the acidic environment ascorbic acid needs to be most effective will cause niacinamide will convert to nicotinic acid, a form that can be sensitizing, possibly inducing redness. Good news: This conversion process would only happen under conditions of the formula being exposed to very high heat for a long period of time. This would not apply to layering skincare products or to heat conditions that occur during manufacturing, transport, and storage of cosmetic products that contain niacinamide and ascorbic acid.

What all of this means is that you can use or layer products containing both niacinamide and vitamin C knowing that they will not render each other any less effective. Each of these ingredients on its own can help to address dark spots, uneven skin tone, wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dullness. When used together, they become even more of a powerhouse! This duo will help give you an even better chance at achieving a radiant, smooth, even, younger-looking complexion.

For me, I only have one product that contains niacinamide. It is a moituriser from Pure Beauty brand which you can purchase it only at Watsons ! Later, I will do the review 😘

Since post yang Anis buat pasal Nano White Fresh on December 2015 kalau tak silap, post tu lah yang dah berjasa dalam menaikkan jumlah pageview blog Anis ni. Untuk post tu sahaja setakat hari ni dah lebih kurang 74,000 page views.

Product : Nano White Fresh Gel Cleanser (100mℓ)
Price : RM 15.90
Claims :

• Contain Bursting Micro Beads which deeply cleanses away impurities
• Remove excessive oil without over drying
• Leaves skin feeling clean, fresh and radiant complexion
• Suitable for all skin type even for oily skin

Anis purchase this one sebab dia cakap this gel cleanser memang boleh dengan semua skin types. Tapi malangnya it doesn't works on my skin, getting worse lagi adalah. Maka, lebih kurang 25% jugak daripada botol dah terpakai, sebab rasa sayang kalau nak biar macam tu je. Tapi lebih baik sayang kulit anda daripada sayang wang ringgit anda. Wang boleh dicari ganti, muka anda ? Nak ganti ngan apa kalau dah rosak 👀

These are the effects and ingredients they used in Nano White Fresh Gel Cleanser 💔

You guys can see it right ? Even Nano White claims they create this product for those yang having oily skin type, but those with dry skin pun boleh pakai sebab bahan-bahan dia okay 👍 cuma dia jadi problem on my skin sebab kulit saya ini yang agak sensitif 🙇

What happen to me after using this ?

• Makin banyak jerawat yang timbul
• Kawasan pipi jadi kemerahan 
• Kulit rasa tegang 
• Saya jadi bengang dengan produk ini 😒
• Saya rasa menyesal sebab tukar daripada foam cleanser ke gel cleanser ni 😣 foam cleanser nano white fresh works wonderful on my skin 💗

Pesanan ringkas : 

Jangan terpedaya dengan iklan serta condition rakan-rakan anda. Yes, they might have the same skin type with you but it doesn't mean that product they use also suitable for your skin , okay 💪do some research baru nanti tak kecewa 💢

This is an honest review from me . Sekian, wassalam 👾 Oh ya lupa nak cakap , my skin type is combination but it always tend to dry even the T-zone waktu zaman try this gel cleanser. But, now goodbye to dry skin . It is a normal combination skin for now

Aired on : 28th August - 8th September 2017

Total episodes : 10

Duration : 15 minutes per episode

Cast : 

Synopsis by MyDramaList :

The web drama tells the story of a popular orthopedic surgeon, Oh Kyung Hwi, who used to be a loner and a bullying victim during his high school days. In order to save his first love, who committed suicide, Kyung Hwi goes back in time to when he was 18 years old.

My thought : 

Macam drama Manhole, Oh Hyung Kwi in this drama can travel back to his high school era. He saw Han Na Bi when he drunk and follow her until he disappear after entering a door. He become determined to know the reason Na Bi commit suicide and try to change the history so that he can still meet Na Bi in the future. I like the cast so much since I know that Minho as Hyung Kwi is a good actor even waktu mula-mula terlibat dengan dunia lakonan ni, tak nampak pun 'kekayuan' dia 🌾

Heroin dia  Lee Yoo Bi jangan di cakap lah bakatnya. This is because her mom is also an actress 🍤  Ohh her little sister pun pelakon jugak 😻 Han Na Bi always looking cool dan selalu tak nampakkan kesedihan dia. Actually, Na Bi stress dengan life sendiri selepas kes kematian her best friend. Dia dihantui rasa bersalah disebabkan keluarga rakan-rakan dan ayah dia yang tak pedulikan perasaan dia jugak. That's why she commit suicide bila dah habis upaya nak pendam seorang diri. 

There will a plot twist, and please make sure you understand the situation sebab dia ada macam scene flashback. Banyak jugak scene lawak dalam ni 😀 You guys will laugh after you saw Hyung Kwi's hair hmm maybe not 😆

If you like drama dengan background budak-budak sekolah yes you should watch this ! Banyak pesanan pembakar semangat bagi manusia di luar sana yang terasa macam nak bunuh diri tu 👏 Dan yang suka tengok drama pendek-pendek pun amatlah digalakkan to watch this 😄

Sorry don't know what to tell you more about this because you really need to watch it by yourself to know and understand but what I can tell is this drama will make you anticipate the next scene 

Where to watch ?

Good evening even though its already dark out there .

Actually, I'm here trying very hard to overcome a disease called MALAS . I always said to myself that I want to publish a lot of posts but then when the holiday come, nahhh I'm still stuck on my bed and not doing anything other than nganga 😵 I guess I need your supporting comments to get me motivated and be more productive person on this break. I need to do a lot before March or I will regret it later.

Kalau lah aku dulu rajin update blog seminggu 3-4 post ke 😓

Now I think I should make a list of tasks that need to be done in this 6 weeks of holiday .
