Coachchem Laboratory Story | Episode Eighteen:Can MN replace NMN to become the new star ingredient with real efficacy?

1. Myristyl Nicotinate (Anallerg®-MN) is a new-generation niacin derivative, also known as “oil-soluble niacinamide,” and can serve as a precursor of NAD+.

2. MN has high transdermal efficiency and a high conversion rate into NAD+.

3. MN can repair the skin barrier function, protect against facial photo-damage, work synergistically with Vitamin A, relieve Vitamin A irritation, and enhance skin tolerance.

4. NMN is water-soluble and needs to be ingested orally to be converted into NAD+ in the body. When applied topically, it does not easily penetrate the sebum membrane, its conversion efficiency remains to be verified, and it is difficult to formulate.

5. MN is oil-soluble, easily penetrates the sebum membrane, is easy to formulate, and is suitable for various dosage forms such as creams, lotions, and facial oils.
