Paula's Choice 5% Niacinamide Body Treatment Lotion — Fragrance-Free 4 fl oz, Lightweight B3 + B5 Serum for Uneven Tone & Texture

Paula's Choice 5% Niacinamide Body Treatment is a lightweight, fragrance-free serum for the body that blends 5% niacinamide and 5% d-panthenol to improve uneven tone, texture, and hydration across chest, arms, legs, and décolleté.

This body treatment combines science-backed B3 and B5 actives in a silky lotion designed to feel weightless while helping restore the skin’s moisture barrier. Formulated for use on larger areas where discoloration, rough patches, or early signs of aging show up, the product seeks to reduce blotchiness and smooth the skin’s surface without added fragrance or heavy oils.

How does this treatment address uneven tone and discoloration?

The formula uses a clinically respected 5% concentration of niacinamide alongside prickly pear extract to target areas of blotchiness and visible redness. Together these ingredients support evening of skin tone and help the skin look calmer and more uniform with regular use.

• 5% niacinamide to promote a more even appearance
• Prickly pear extract for antioxidant support
• Lightweight serum texture allows even spread over larger areas
• Fragrance-free to reduce potential irritation

Will this lotion improve skin texture and signs of aging on the body?

Yes — the silky, non-greasy formula targets fine lines, roughness, and enlarged pores that can appear on the chest, arms, and legs. Ingredients work to smooth and hydrate, leaving skin feeling softer and looking more refined with continued application.

• 5% d-panthenol (vitamin B5) supports hydration and barrier repair
• Silky consistency reduces friction and improves spreadability
• Regular use helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and rough patches

Is it suitable for my skin type and sensitive areas like the décolleté?

The lightweight serum is formulated for all common skin types — normal, oily, combination, dry, and acne-prone skin can use it. Because it’s fragrance-free and focuses on barrier-supporting ingredients, it’s appropriate for sensitive zones such as the décolleté and upper chest when used as directed.

• Fragrance-free to lower irritation risk
• Non-comedogenic texture for acne-prone areas
• Works on both face-adjacent zones and larger body surfaces

How should I incorporate this into my body care routine?

Apply the treatment to clean, dry skin once or twice daily where you want to target discoloration, roughness, or early signs of aging. Follow with a moisturizer or sunscreen as needed—especially on sun-exposed areas like the chest and arms—to support overall results and protection.

• Use after showering or bathing on towel-dried skin
• Pair with daily SPF on exposed areas for best appearance maintenance
• Layer under heavier body creams for extra hydration if desired

This Paula's Choice treatment is aimed at anyone who wants a focused, science-informed body serum to help even tone, smooth texture, and strengthen the skin barrier without added fragrance. It’s particularly useful for people noticing patchy discoloration, rough or flaky skin on the chest, arms, legs, and décolleté who prefer a lightweight, fast-absorbing formula that layers well with sunscreens and moisturizers.
