How to Use Niagen NanoCloud™: Your Step-by-Step Guide

How to Use Niagen NanoCloud™: Your Step-by-Step Guide

Key Takeaways

  • It’s waterless on purpose. Niagen NanoCloud™ stays a powder in its sachet to help protect Niagen® potency until you activate it.
  • It takes four simple steps. Prepare, add, activate, apply. Mix one sachet with your water-based serum or moisturizer (or 8-10 drops of water) into a smooth, thin gel, then apply to your face and neck.
  • It works with your routine, not instead of it. Use it twice daily after cleansing and before your next step. No need to rinse, and it layers with what’s already on your shelf.

Topics Covered

    Did you know most NAD+ skincare degrades before it ever reaches your skin? Niagen NanoCloud™ sachets are stable and precision-dosed with every use. Researched and developed by the Niagen Skincare Innovation Lab, Niagen NanoCloud™ starts as a powder, then mixes with your current water-based skincare or moisturizer to transform into a smooth, thin gel in your palm.

    If you’re wondering how that works, this guide walks you through it. 

    How to Use Niagen NanoCloud™

    The Niagen NanoCloud™ sachet is waterless on purpose. This design by the Niagen Skincare Innovation Lab was developed to protect peak Niagen® potency until the moment you use it. 

    Step 1, prepare: Cleanse your face and neck as usual. Place one Niagen NanoCloud™ sachet in the palm of your dry hand.
    Step 2, add: Add a dime-sized amount of your water-based serum or moisturizer directly onto the Niagen NanoCloud™ sachet.
    Step 3, activate: Mix the two products together in your hands until
fully dissolved into a thin, smooth gel.
    Step 4, apply: Apply evenly to face and neck, avoiding the eye area. No need to rinse or remove. Simply follow with your post-serum or moisturizer routine.

    How Much Serum or Moisturizer Should You Use?

    We recommend using 2 pumps of your serum or moisturizer with the sachet. For a lighter texture, use more water-based serum or moisturizer. For a more concentrated treatment, use less of your water-based serum or moisturizer. You’re aiming for a smooth, spreadable gel, and you can adjust from there.

    Can You Just Use Water?

    Yes, you can use water to activate! The entire Niagen NanoCloud™ experience is designed to be customized for your skincare needs. We recommend using 8-10 drops of water to activate the sachet. 

    Where Niagen NanoCloud™ Fits In Your Routine

    Niagen NanoCloud™ goes on after cleansing, and before whatever comes next in your routine, whether that’s an additional serum or moisturizer. For best results, massage one sachet onto your face and neck 2 times daily, morning and evening. And, don’t rinse it off! The actives in Niagen NanoCloud™ are intended to be left on the skin for optimal benefits. But, you can let it dry for one minute before following with what’s next in your skincare routine.

    Once you’re done, store Niagen NanoCloud™ in a cool, dry place away from humidity to preserve peak potency. Close the cap tightly after each use. There’s no need to refrigerate to maintain freshness. 

    Results start in as little as 2 weeks

    During a 6-week consumer perception study, users started reporting visible results in as few as 2 weeks.

    In just 2 weeks, over half of participants were already satisfied with their overall skin appearance—up from just 15% at baseline—a jump of more than 35 percentage points.* 70% agreed skin appeared visibly more youthful in as little as 4 weeks, 72% reported smoother, more moisturized skin, and 75% wanted to continue using Niagen NanoCloud after completing the 6-week study.*

    Should You Patch Test Niagen NanoCloud™?

    While Niagen NanoCloud™ is dermatologist-tested and suitable for all skin types, a patch test is recommended, especially if you are prone to sensitivity. Simply activate one sachet as you normally would, apply a small amount to a discreet area, like the inside of your forearm or behind the ear. Check the area over the next 24 hours to see how your skin responds.

    If you have any kind of skin reaction or response, reach out to your healthcare provider immediately. 

    As with any new skincare product, if you have any concerns or a history of reactions, or are using prescription skincare, consult a dermatologist before adding Niagen NanoCloud™ to your routine.

    What to Layer With Niagen NanoCloud™

    Remember, Niagen NanoCloud™ is designed to be used with your skincare routine—not replace it. It mixes with your favorite water-based serum or moisturizer to add patented Niagen®, the same NAD+ precursor trusted in Tru Niagen® supplements. 

    When it comes to using Niagen NanoCloud™ with over-the-counter retinoids or vitamin C, it’s best to layer them rather than mix them with the sachet directly.

    *Based on a 6-week consumer perception study of 37 female participants aged 35+ who applied the product twice daily. Individual results may vary.
