Collection: Niacinamide Serums for Face & Body
One ingredient. A lot of jobs.
Niacinamide helps fade the look of dark spots, even out skin tone, support the skin barrier and smooth visible texture. Which is why we put it in both our serums — not as the only active, but as part of a smarter formula.

What Niacinamide does for your skin
Looking for a niacinamide serum in India that targets more than one skin concern? Niacinamide features in both Boofootel serums—but at carefully selected concentrations for the face and body.
Sooperboost Face Serum contains 2% niacinamide to help improve the appearance of dark spots, acne marks, uneven skin tone, pores and a weakened skin barrier.
Soopersmooth Body Serum contains 3% niacinamide to help fade the appearance of dark patches, even out body skin tone and support smoother, healthier-looking skin.
Because your face should not be the only skin getting active ingredients.
Niacinamide is an active form of vitamin B3 and one of skincare's most versatile ingredients. It helps strengthen the skin's moisture barrier while improving the appearance of pigmentation, uneven tone, excess oil, visible pores and rough texture.
It is also easy to combine with other ingredients, which is why both Boofootel formulas pair niacinamide with complementary actives instead of treating it as a one-ingredient solution.
A well-formulated niacinamide serum can help:
- Improve the appearance of dark spots and pigmentation
- Even out patchy or uneven skin tone
- Strengthen the skin's moisture barrier
- Balance excess oil
- Minimise the appearance of pores
- Calm the look of redness caused by irritation
- Improve rough or uneven-looking texture
- Support more hydrated, healthy-looking skin
Sooperboost Face Serum: 2% niacinamide
Sooperboost is more than a standalone serum with niacinamide. It combines 2% niacinamide with 12% vitamin C, peptides, babchi extract, plankton extract, hyaluronic acid, rosewater and coconut water.
Together, these actives target:
- Pigmentation and dark spots
- Post-acne marks
- Uneven skin tone
- Dullness
- Visible pores
- Fine lines
- Dehydrated skin
- A weakened skin barrier
Choose Sooperboost when your main concerns are facial pigmentation, acne marks, dullness, uneven tone or visible signs of ageing.
Soopersmooth Body Serum: 3% niacinamide
The benefits of niacinamide are not limited to your face. Soopersmooth contains 3% niacinamide alongside glycolic acid, lactic acid, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to target the concerns commonly found on body skin.
It helps improve the appearance of:
- Dark underarms
- Dark knees and elbows
- Neck pigmentation
- Bumpy arms and legs
- Strawberry legs
- Rough texture
- Ingrown-hair marks
- Uneven body skin tone
- Dry, dull-looking skin
Choose Soopersmooth when you want active skincare for pigmentation, bumps and uneven texture on your body.
A higher percentage does not automatically mean a better product.
Niacinamide needs to be considered as part of the complete formulation: what other ingredients it is combined with, which concerns the formula targets and how comfortable it is to use consistently.
Boofootel uses:
- 2% niacinamide in Sooperboost Face Serum, combined with vitamin C, peptides and hydrating actives.
- 3% niacinamide in Soopersmooth Body Serum, combined with exfoliating, brightening and hydrating actives.
This allows each formula to address multiple causes of pigmentation and uneven texture without requiring several separate serums.
Niacinamide FAQs
Niacinamide strengthens the skin barrier, reduces inflammation and redness, controls oil production, fades acne marks and hyperpigmentation, minimizes the look of pores, and softens fine lines over time. Most people start seeing visible changes in tone and texture within 4–8 weeks of consistent use.
Yes. Niacinamide is one of the most researched actives for fading the visible appearance of pigmentation and dark spots, working by calming inflammation and supporting a more even-looking skin tone over time. Because stubborn pigmentation rarely responds to a single ingredient, Boofootel pairs niacinamide with complementary brightening actives rather than relying on niacinamide alone.
Sooperboost Face Serum combines niacinamide with vitamin C and plankton extract to target facial pigmentation, while Soopersmooth Body Serum combines niacinamide with vitamin C, glycolic acid and lactic acid to fade pigmentation on the body.
Yes — niacinamide is one of the few actives dermatologists recommend across skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin. It regulates sebum production and calms the inflammation behind breakouts, while helping fade the dark marks acne leaves behind, which tend to be more stubborn on Indian and melanin-rich skin.
Niacinamide serum price in India typically ranges from ₹500 to over ₹2,000, depending on concentration, what it's combined with (vitamin C, peptides, zinc) and packaging. Boofootel's niacinamide serums are priced at ₹1,450 (Soopersmooth Body Serum, 3%) and ₹1,650 (Sooperboost Face Serum, 2%) — formulated with active-supporting ingredients rather than niacinamide alone.
Not necessarily. While some brands market niacinamide 5% or even 10% formulas, higher isn't automatically more effective — research shows niacinamide works well in the 2–5% range, and going higher mainly raises the risk of redness, tingling or purging, especially on sensitive or already-inflamed skin. Boofootel formulates at 2% (face) and 3% (body) so the ingredient works with your skin barrier instead of against it.
Yes. The old advice that niacinamide and vitamin C cancel each other out has been disproven — modern formulations combine both safely. Sooperboost Face Serum is formulated with niacinamide and vitamin C together for exactly this reason.
Niacinamide serum can be used once or twice daily, morning and night, and doesn't need to be introduced gradually the way exfoliating acids do. Apply a few drops to clean skin before moisturizer.
Hydration and smoother-looking skin are often noticeable within the first one to two weeks of using a niacinamide serum, since the ingredient starts strengthening the skin barrier quickly. Visible changes in pigmentation and dark spots take longer, generally showing up after 4 to 8 weeks of consistent, daily use.
Results depend on the concern being treated, the complete formula niacinamide is paired with, how consistently the serum is used, and daily sun protection — which is essential for pigmentation to fade rather than return.
Sooperboost Face Serum (2% niacinamide) is formulated for the thinner, more reactive skin on your face, with vitamin C and peptides added for glow and firmness. Soopersmooth Body Serum (3% niacinamide) is formulated for thicker body skin prone to bumps, ingrown hairs and pigmentation on areas like arms, underarms and thighs.
