I have been taking Niacinamide, Biotin, Spirulina and Omega 3 supplements for the last month and I have noticed great improvement in my skin, hair and nails. My nails are so much stronger and growing so quick now. I had been wanting to try Biotin for quite a while now as I am trying to grow my hair and had read that it is the best supplement to take for that. Biotin seemed to be expensive in most of the health shops but I managed to find a really reasonably priced one online to decided to give it a go. Obviously I won’t notice too much difference in my hair length just yet as it has only been a month but my nails are much stronger, I have had to cut them twice this month! That is impressive, they aren’t even breaking and I’m delighted about that as they were quite brittle before. My hair feels softer, shinier and healthier so I think I will stick with these supplements as my hair was very brittle and dry before and nothing seemed to be working in terms of hair oil masks and deep treatments. I guess I may have been deficient in some vitamins and nutrients.
Note – Always consult your health care professional before taking a health supplement. Read full disclaimer here
I do believe in treating your skin and hair from the inside so if you are looking to improve your skin, hair and nail health you can either make sure and eat a diet high in vitamin B3, vitamin H, oily fish, leafy greens, vegetables, nutrients and protein or else take supplements in any of those you are lacking.
It is also recommended that if you drink heavily, smoke or are showing signs of deficiency in any of the vitamins, omega 3 or have brittle hair and nails, that these supplements may help.

I never heard of Niacinimide before! Thank you, I learned something new 🙂
Hi Cristina, I heard of it only recently myself as it has become really popular as a facial product. You can also apply it topically but it is great of health in general so I’m making the most of it by taking the supplement!
