is this the same as using nicotinamide for acne?

While there are similarities, it is not the same. Nicotinamide is taken internally and niacinamide is designed for topical use. Our RESIST 10% Niacinamide should only be used topically.

Can this be used in an evening routine in conjunction (before) a retinol?

My dermatologist suggested to use these on alternate nights in the beginning for at least 3 to 4 weeks. If there were no issues, he said if I wanted to use them together, to apply the niacinamide first and wait until it is well dried for awhile before applying the retinol. I am trying everything to exfoliate, create faster skin turnover and give a boost to collagen without trying anything invassive,....like fillers and botox, at least for now! I followed what he suggested, and after the first 3 weeks, use the Niacinamide first, then wait for at least 30 minutes, preferably longer (thinking I am waiting longer for it to work), then put on the retinol. What I can say is this has made my skin look much clearer and brighter, and better than with the retinol alone. Hope this helps!

What percentage of Vitamin C is in this?

No percentage listed. It's the 12th item on the list mentioned (of 15 key items included)
