Product summary

"APRIL SKIN - TXA Niacinamide Milky Toner" is effective for: Moisturizing, Evens skin tone, Anti-aging and Anti-blemish

Ingredient callouts

  • A good concentration of Niacinamide (4.70% - 5.80%). Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
  • This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.15% - 0.25%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
  • Ceramides (ceramide ap 0.25% - 0.45%, ceramide eop 0.30% - 0.55%, ceramide ns 0.30% - 0.55% and ceramide np 0.30% - 0.60%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
  • Adenosine 0.30% - 0.50%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
  • Humectants (sodium acetylated hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.30%, sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer 0.15% - 0.30%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.20% - 0.40%, hyaluronic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, sodium hyaluronate 0.25% - 0.45%, trehalose 0.30% - 0.55%, panthenol 0.30% - 0.55%, saccharide hydrolysate 0.30% - 0.55% and glycerin 2.00% - 2.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
