5 BENEFITS OF VITAMIN C FOR SKIN
Here are the main benefits of vitamin C for your skin health:
1. BRIGHTENS SKIN TONE
One of the most positive effects of vitamin C is its incredible ability to
treat age spots, pigmentation, and uneven skin tone. These skin-brightening benefits can
help even out your skin tone for a more even, radiant, youthful glow.
Vitamin C has actually been proven to brighten skin and improve the
appearance of dark spots
and other forms of hyperpigmentation. It does this by blocking the production of melanin,
which is the pigment that gives your skin its colour and can sometimes become overproduced
in certain areas, leading to dark spots.
2. HELPS REDUCE WRINKLES
One of the most positive effects of vitamin C is its incredible ability to
treat age spots, pigmentation, and uneven skin tone. These skin-brightening benefits can
help even out your skin tone for a more even, radiant, youthful glow.
Vitamin C helps to boost collagen production, which is a protein that gives your skin its
structure and firmness. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, leading to fine lines,
wrinkles, and sagging skin. The body needs vitamin C (along with amino acids, zinc, and
copper) to create collagen, so you can help speed up the production of collagen by providing
your skin with plenty of vitamin C.
TRY PROFESSIONAL VITAMIN C TREATMENTS
Sometimes it’s best to visit a professional, especially if you want to target deeper
skin concerns like redness, pigmentation, acne, or rosacea. Regular vitamin C facials
can also offer general skin-boosting benefits like preventing premature ageing,
maintaining an even skin tone, and avoiding blemishes.

your skin:
Although we’re big advocates for vitamin C skincare, it’s equally important to make sure
that you’re getting enough of this vitamin in your diet. Consuming this vitamin will
have many health benefits for your body and your skin!
Luckily, if you already have a balanced diet you’re probably already getting enough
vitamin C. If you want to boost your vitamin C levels, you can do so by adding a
variety of colourful fruits and veggies to your diet. The best sources of vitamin
C include citrus fruits, berries, bell peppers, tomatoes, white potatoes, and
broccoli. If you find it hard to get the recommended daily dose of vitamin C, you can
also try a vitamin C supplement.
