Can you use centella with niacinamide?
Yes — centella is one of the gentlest, most compatible ingredients in skincare. It layers fine with niacinamide and can actually improve tolerance.
Why
Centella Asiatica (Cica) calms inflammation, supports wound healing, and strengthens the barrier. It has no pH dependencies, no irritation profile, and no conflicts with active ingredients.
How to layer them
Apply centella as a hydrating or calming layer in your routine — typically after cleansing and before heavier products. Then layer niacinamide as normal. Either AM or PM works.
