Vitamin C a true hero for your skin.

You are one step closer to achieving a brighter, more youthful complexion. This powerful antioxidant provides huge benefits to your skin, Vitamin C is essential for a healthy body, and therefore essential for healthy skin and hair. It’s a potent antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals, such as those found in environmental pollutants and after exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Some of it’s benefits are:

  • Even skin tone; diminished dark spots
  • Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Brighter skin overall
  • Defends the skin against free radical damage
  • Production of collagen

By feeding your skin with vitamin C it slows down collagen breakdown and also helps with collagen renewal because vitamin C boosts cell renewal (whereas free radicals destroy cells).  A vitamin C moisturising cream can help but it doesn’t penetrate as well as a serum which is why vitamin C serums have become so popular.  When it gets there it starts working its magic, plumping up and refreshing skin from within so it looks firmer, more elastic and glows.  It evens out skin tone too so starts to reduce the appearance of skin discolouration (often caused by over-exposure to the sun). There are different concentrations to bear in mind, 10, 15 and 20% being the main. But you do need to check which is best for your skin type the highest % is not necessarily the best. Vitamin C is one of the latest products that as changed beauty routines.
