Vitamin C: isn't that found in fruit?
Oranges, strawberries and kiwis are packed with vitamin C, but did you know that this vitamin is also super effective in your skincare routine? In addition to a healthy diet, you can pamper your skin with this vitamin. We are happy to tell you more about the pearl of skincare!
Skin aging
Vitamin C in skincare ensures that your skin produces collagen faster. Collagen is a protein that is naturally present in your skin and works fantastically against skin aging. Unfortunately, there is no cream or serum that makes wrinkles disappear completely, but the production of collagen makes your skin more elastic, which makes your skin look fuller. This reduces fine lines , such as around your eyes, and your skin starts to glow. Your skin looks fresh again!
Impurities
Pimples, almost everyone has to deal with them at some point. Did you know that as much as 90% of the population has (had) them at some point? We often think of puberty when we think of acne , but adults can also suffer from them. And let vitamin C be effective against impurities! Not only does vitamin C tackle pimples, it also works very well against rosacea because it strengthens your skin barrier.
Pigment spots
Vitamin C also has an equalizing effect, making your complexion look like new again. Pigment spots , for example caused by sunlight, are visibly reduced after using skin care with vitamin C. This antioxidant not only reduces existing damage, but also protects your skin against new harmful particles. This miracle cure forms a protective layer on your skin, so that, for example, harmful UV rays cause less or no damage to your skin.
How to use vitamin C as skin care?
Now that we know that vitamin C is an effective antioxidant, we can start looking for your new favorites. There are several types of creams, toners and serums that are rich in vitamin C. When looking for a new product, pay attention to how rich it is in vitamin C, because this top ingredient is only effective from 3%. Can't find how much vitamin C is in a certain product? Then make sure that the ingredient is as high up in the ingredients list as possible.
It is advisable to start using vitamin C in your skincare carefully, because it is a very effective antioxidant. Vitamin C can sting your skin, but you will quickly get used to it. As long as it does not cause irritation, that stinging feeling is not harmful!
