I. Why is niacinamide body lotion so popular?

With the continuous improvement of skin care awareness, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to body care, especially in dry seasons or when exposed to air-conditioned environments for a long time. As a highly praised product in recent years, niacinamide body lotion has won wide favor with its multiple skin care effects. It can not only help improve skin tone and brighten the skin, but also provide deep moisturizing and repair for the skin, making it healthier and smoother. Whether it is dry, sensitive skin, or people who want to improve uneven skin tone, niacinamide body lotion has become an ideal choice. So why is niacinamide body lotion so popular? Let's take a look at its charm.

1. Significant whitening effect

Niacinamide (also called nicotine amide) is an effective whitening ingredient that can inhibit the production of melanin, reduce spots and uneven skin tone. It helps the skin to be more even by inhibiting the transport of melanin. Long-term use can improve skin tone, brighten the skin, and make the skin look smoother and brighter. It is especially popular for people with spots and dull skin.

2. Improve skin barrier function

Niacinamide not only has a whitening effect, it can also enhance the skin barrier function, help the skin retain moisture, prevent moisture loss, and thus maintain the skin's moisture and elasticity. It can repair the skin barrier, reduce the skin's sensitive response to external stimuli, and help relieve problems such as dryness and peeling. It is especially suitable for dry skin and sensitive skin.

3. Significant moisturizing effect

Niacinamide has an excellent moisturizing effect. It helps the skin maintain a long-term moisturized state by promoting hydration in the skin. For people with dry skin, body lotion containing niacinamide can effectively improve dryness problems, improve skin hydration, and make the skin softer and smoother.

4. Soothe the skin and reduce irritation

Niacinamide has an anti-inflammatory effect and has a good soothing effect on skin that is prone to redness and itching. After using niacinamide body lotion, it can not only improve the skin tone, but also relieve the discomfort caused by dryness or external environmental stimuli, making the skin smoother and more comfortable. It is suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.

5. Light texture, easy to absorb

Niacinamide body lotion is usually light, non-greasy, and easily absorbed by the skin. Compared with other types of moisturizing products, it is not easy to give the skin a heavy feeling. After use, the skin remains fresh and non-greasy. It is especially suitable for use in warm climates or high humidity environments.

6. Suitable for all skin types

Due to the mild nature of niacinamide, it is suitable for all skin types, including oily, dry, mixed and sensitive skin. Whether it is whitening, moisturizing, or repairing the skin barrier, niacinamide body lotion can meet the needs of different skin types.

7. Multiple functions to meet consumer needs

Modern consumers pay more and more attention to multi-effect skin care products. In addition to whitening and moisturizing, niacinamide body lotion can also regulate skin condition and reduce the occurrence of skin problems. It combines whitening, moisturizing, soothing and repairing, and is favored by busy urban people because it can meet multiple skin care needs in one product.


II. Production process of niacinamide body lotion

1. Raw material preparation

Before producing niacinamide body lotion, various raw materials need to be accurately weighed and prepared to ensure product quality and stability. Mainly including:

Water phase raw materials: niacinamide, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, water-soluble preservatives, etc.

Oil phase raw materials: shea butter, squalane, silicone oil, emollient esters, etc.

Emulsifier: surfactant, thickener, help stabilize the oil-water mixed system.

Active ingredients: whitening, moisturizing, soothing ingredients, such as niacinamide, panthenol, ceramide, etc.

Auxiliary additives: flavors, pigments, preservatives, etc., selected according to product requirements.


2. Heating and premixing

2.1 Heating the water phase and oil phase separately

Water phase heating: Heat the purified water treated by industrial reverse osmosis water treatment to 60~75℃, and dissolve niacinamide and other water-soluble ingredients.

Oil phase heating: Heat shea butter, squalane, etc. to the same temperature to completely dissolve the ingredients and reduce emulsification barriers.

2.2 Premixing

In a stainless steel mixing tank for cosmetics, stir the water phase and oil phase at a low speed to form a preliminary mixing system.

Add emulsifier appropriately to improve the stability of the subsequent main mixing.


3. Mixing and homogenization (core process)

3.1 High speed mixing

Use high shear stirring to evenly disperse the oil phase particles in the water phase to form a stable emulsion.

The stirring speed, time and temperature control are crucial to avoid oil-water separation or agglomeration.

3.2 Vacuum degassing

During the mixing process, vacuum removes bubbles to improve the fineness and stability of the emulsion.

This process can reduce the risk of oxidation of the product during storage and use and improve the texture.

3.3 Add temperature-sensitive ingredients

Gradually reduce the temperature to below 40°C, and then add active ingredients such as niacinamide to avoid degradation or failure caused by high temperature.

Continue stirring to ensure that all ingredients are evenly distributed and improve product efficacy.


4. Cooling and stabilization

Continue stirring and cooling to room temperature to achieve the final emulsion viscosity and fluidity.

Observe whether the system is stable, test the uniformity, pH value, viscosity and other indicators of the lotion to ensure compliance with product standards.


5. Filling and packaging

5.1 Filling

Use an automatic filling machine to quantitatively fill the body lotion into the packaging bottle to ensure consistency and hygienic safety.

5.2 Capping and packaging

Tighten the bottle cap to ensure sealing and prevent contamination or leakage.

Labeling, coding, and final inspection to ensure that the product appearance and quality meet the standards.

5.3 Packaging and storage

Products that have passed the quality inspection enter the packaging link, are packed into boxes, and are ready to be shipped.

Store in an environment with suitable temperature and humidity to avoid direct sunlight affecting product quality.


6. Quality inspection and shipment

Stability test: Test the stability of the lotion under different temperature and humidity conditions.

Microbial testing: Ensure that the product does not contain harmful bacteria and meets safety standards.

Final review: Confirm whether the appearance, texture, smell, fluidity, etc. meet the standards.

After passing the test, niacinamide body lotion can be put on the market for sale.


III. Precautions for the production of niacinamide body lotion

1. Accurate formula design

Niacinamide concentration control: The concentration of niacinamide needs to be precisely controlled, usually between 2% and 5%. Too high a concentration may cause skin irritation, while too low a concentration may affect the effect. You need to adjust the concentration according to the target market and skin type during production.

Formula compatibility: Niacinamide may react with other ingredients such as vitamin C, acid substances, etc., resulting in reduced or unstable effects. Therefore, when designing the formula, ensure the compatibility of all ingredients and avoid unnecessary chemical reactions.


2. Temperature control

Avoid high temperature: Niacinamide is sensitive to high temperatures, and high temperature environments may cause it to fail or degrade, so the temperature needs to be strictly controlled during the production process. Usually when heating the water phase and oil phase, the temperature should not exceed 75°C, and a lower temperature (below 40°C) needs to be maintained during the emulsification stage to add niacinamide.

Mixed temperature control: During the emulsification process, maintaining an appropriate temperature not only ensures that niacinamide is not destroyed, but also ensures the viscosity and stability of the emulsion.


3. Fine operation during emulsification

High shear mixing: In order to ensure that the water phase and the oil phase are completely uniform and avoid stratification and granularity, high shear mixing technology should be used during emulsification. This process needs to ensure the uniformity and stability of the mixing to avoid component separation.

Vacuum degassing: After the emulsification is completed, the vacuum degassing technology is used to remove the bubbles in the emulsion, which can make the emulsion more delicate, improve the skin feel of the product, and also help reduce the risk of oxidation.


4. Prevent pollution and maintain hygiene

Equipment cleaning: The production equipment must be kept clean to avoid microbial contamination. All mixing equipment, filling equipment, etc. must be strictly cleaned and disinfected to ensure product quality.

Sanitary management of raw materials: When storing and handling raw materials, ensure that the raw materials are not contaminated, especially water-soluble ingredients (such as niacinamide and hyaluronic acid) are susceptible to bacterial contamination, so a closed environment is required.


5. Prevent oxidation and stability management

The use of antioxidants: Niacinamide is easily oxidized, so an appropriate amount of antioxidants (such as vitamin E) can be added during the production process to help extend the shelf life of the product and prevent its efficacy from decreasing.

Packaging design: The packaging should have light-proof and anti-oxidation properties. Niacinamide products should use opaque or dark packaging, and ensure that the packaging is well sealed to avoid the influence of air and light on the product.


6. pH adjustment

pH regulation: The optimal working pH value of niacinamide is between 5.5 and 6.5. Too low or too high pH values may cause instability of niacinamide or irritation to the skin. Therefore, during the production process, it is necessary to use pH regulators to ensure that the pH value of the final product is appropriate.


7. Quality inspection and stability test

Viscosity and texture test: After production is completed, the viscosity, fluidity and texture of niacinamide body lotion need to be tested to ensure that it meets product standards. Too high viscosity may make it difficult to apply, while too low viscosity may affect the moisturizing effect.

Stability test: The product must undergo stability tests under different environments, including temperature changes, humidity changes, etc., to ensure that there will be no stratification, precipitation and other problems under different storage conditions.


IV. Why is the vacuum cosmetic cream mixer indispensable in the production of niacinamide body lotion?

The vacuum emulsifier mixer is essential in the production of niacinamide body lotion. It can ensure uniform mixing of water phase and oil phase through high shear force to form a delicate emulsion, avoiding stratification and graininess. At the same time, the vacuum environment reduces air entry, reduces oxidation of niacinamide ingredients, and maintains its activity. The efficient operation of the vacuum homogenizer mixer machine improves production efficiency, and can stabilize the texture and stability of the product throughout the process, ensuring consistent product quality for each batch. In addition, the precise control of the vacuum emulsifier mixer machine improves the texture of the product, making the emulsion more delicate and smooth, thereby enhancing the consumer's experience.
