Vitamin A – (in synthetic form it is known as retinol) naturally causes skin exfoliation. Therefore, it assists with unclogging pores, evening out skin discoloration, reducing oiliness, and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin A is great for the treatment of acne and psoriasis.
Vitamin D – which we mainly get from the sun, is naturally produced by our body when our skin is exposed to UV light. It is key in beautiful skin; it helps with minimizing acne, stimulating collagen production, and lessening the appearance of lines and dark spots among many other benefits.
Vitamin E – (normally provided through the skin’s *sebum) is an antioxidant. It can help absorb UV light and plays an important role in preventing free radical damage to the skin. It can penetrate deeply into the skin and may possibly assist in inflammation. It has been reported to work best in combination with vitamin C in photoprotection (sun protection).
Vitamins play a vital role in the health of our body, skin and hair included. Maintaining a healthy balanced diet as well as using products on the skin which are natural and free of chemicals, synthetic and processed ingredients, can ensure that we are getting the maximum benefits that vitamins have to offer.
*sebum: our skins natural oils responsible for keeping the skin and hair moisturized.
