Vitamin C: The Beauty Vitamin
You certainly don’t need to be a skincare aficionado to have heard about Vitamin C and how it’s great for glowing skin!
Taken in supplement form or, even better, through Vitamin C-rich foods, this antioxidant vitamin helps to reduce internal inflammation, which has a heap of benefits from helping to protect against oxidative stress and disease to reducing acne flareups, as a result of inflammation.
However, if you have found yourself reading this article then we want to get into the juicy (and we mean that quite literally, as you’ll find out soon!) benefits of Vitamin C when applied topically.
So if you have been wanting to try Vitamin C for yourself, but have no idea where to start or simply want a little motivation to go ahead and take the plunge into a land of endless radiant skin, then keep reading!
Why Vitamin C?
As we mentioned before, Vitamin C helps to fight inflammation, which is good news for skin that tends to turn red and flare up really easily.
But this is only the tip of the iceberg…
Topically applied Vitamin C helps to encourage the promotion of collagen, a structural protein essential for firm, plump skin that ages gracefully and oozes effortless youthfulness!
That’s not all!
Vitamin C is dubbed the beauty vitamin, because of its very obvious brightening effects that leave the skin glowing with dewy, healthy radiance!
Choosing the right Vitamin C
You may have skipped out on your Vitamin C purchase up until now, simply from being overwhelmed at all the endless options. We know how overwhelm can lead to procrastination, we feel you!
The good news is that we have the perfect Vitamin C for you!
Not only is our “Collagen Booster” brimming in Vitamin C thanks to its powerful active and all natural from-the-earth ingredients, it is also jam-packed in Vitamins E, B, A, as well as Papaya, Orange, Lemon, Horse Chestnut Extracts and Aloe Vera.
Together, these ingredients are pure magic for dry or dull skin and will help to
restore your skin’s natural elasticity.
This serum doubles up as a moisturizer (yes, it’s a multipurpose gem!) as well as the perfect primer for a flawless foundation application!
Something else we really want you to know is that your skin deserves the best and you deserve
peace of mind. That's why our collagen face serum with our exclusive ultra-hydrating blend is a
vegan product that is cruelty-free, toxin-free, and made with only natural ingredients that you can feel really good about using.
Here’s the scoop on some of our main ingredients in this serum and just why they are such a perfect match for your skin!
Pineapple Extract
Pineapples are rich in an enzyme called bromelain that has some wonderful benefits for clearing
up your sinuses, but of course that’s not what we are here to talk about today!
Bromelain has wonderful skin benefits too, helping to provide a natural exfoliation for glowing,
radiant skin!
Pineapple is also rich in Vitamins C and E to help reduce inflammation, beautifully brighten and
aid in tissue repair for healthier, happier skin.
Lemon extract
If hyperpigmentation plagues you then lemon extract will save the day!
Lemon helps to brighten while fading dark spots. It’s also rich in Vitamin C and will help to reduce redness due to anti-inflammatory properties, leaving the skin soothed with a more even tone and a luminous glow.
Papaya extract
Papaya contains enzymes that are excellent for your skin.
These enzymes help to dissolve dead skin cells, opening up the pores for
clearer skin with a reduced risk of blemishes. Open pores also mean your skin will drink up all
the nutrients in your products!
Orange extract
Orange extract helps to perfectly balance your skin so you can enjoy the perfect amount of
hydration with fewer blemishes.
It also has natural and gentle astringent properties to reduce acne and even scarring while
soothing skin inflammatory and irritation.
Apple extract
Apple extract is brimming in antioxidants, exactly what your skin needs as protection against
damaging free radicals.
Apple extract helps to keep the skin youthful while aiding in skin smoothing for a beautiful, silky
soft complexion.
Pomegranate extract
Pomegranate is rich in skin loving antioxidants, including Vitamin C, which by now you know is a
dream for gorgeous skin!
It also had anti-aging plant compounds that aid in skin regeneration, minimizing existing
wrinkles and reducing the risk of further wrinkles.
As you can see, these are some of the best fruit extracts you can ask for if you’re looking to give
your skin a boost!
To find them all in one place, do treat yourself to our collagen booster and follow up with any of
our oils to complete your routine.
