Niacinamide

Niacinamide is a very beneficial moisturizing, skin-restoring ingredient, It helps to create ceramides — natural lipids that allow skin to retain moisture — helps to improve uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, and helps maintain skin's moisture barrier protection.

it has also been shown to calm acne flareups. In other words, it's about as much of a multi-tasker as any one skin-care ingredient could be. Dr. Graf recommends it to most of her patients, though she cautions that the only patients who should not be using products with niacinamide are those who have demonstrated a sensitivity to it, which is quite rare.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

Green tea extract is derived from leaves of Camellia sinensis. Green tea extract is a good anti-inflammatory agent thereby reducing inflammation in the skin, and most importantly having an inhibitory action on collagenase (a collagen-reducing enzyme that breaks down collagen). Since green tea extract helps to inhibit collagenase, the topical use of green tea helps to promote the health and quantity of collagen, thereby maintaining a firm and elastic skin. In one clinical study is was shown that the skin had measurably more elastic tissue content after continuous application of a product containing green tea extract.
