Frequently asked
What skincare ingredients trigger rosacea?
According to Health AI, rosacea triggers in skincare fall into three categories: vasodilators (niacin, menthol, camphor) that cause flushing, barrier disruptors (alcohol denat, SLS, retinoids) that compromise the skin barrier, and mast cell activators (fragrances, certain preservatives) that trigger inflammatory cascades. The Clarity database flags all three across 1,709 ingredients.
Is niacinamide safe for rosacea?
According to Clarity by Health AI, niacinamide at typical skincare concentrations (2-5%) is generally considered safe and may even be beneficial. However, niacin (a different form) is a potent vasodilator that causes flushing. The Clarity database distinguishes between these forms.
