Benefits of Vitamin C

Why your skin needs Vitamin C ?

Topically applying Vitamin C to your skin supports amino acids like proline and lysine to transform into everyone’s favourite elasticity boosters, collagen.

Other Vitamin C benefits include:

  • Antioxidant effects that prevent free radical damage
  • It supports Vitamin A and its functions
  • Vitamins C, E and A are all destroyed by sunlight, so these vital vitamins need to be replenished daily via the skin to ensure they are absorbed where they are needed
  • It helps prevent pigmentation and protects the skin from UV damage (but sunscreen is still required in our harsh climate, especially if you are fair-skinned!)
  • It strengthens Capillary walls
