Why should we use Vitamin C in our skincare?

Everyone known how important Vitamin c is for your body and keeping you healthy and your immune system strong. Well vitamin c is also a necessity for your skin! 

Vitamin c is  "a potent antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals," explains board-certified dermatologist Patricia Wexler. "Because of its antioxidant properties, vitamin C aids in your skin's natural regeneration process, which helps your body repair damaged skin cells.

So not only does it smell good, it helps with anti-aging!

1. It is also suitable for ALL skin types!

2. Super hydrating as it decreases transepidermal water loss, in doing so allowing your skin to retain moisture easily. 

3. Its brightening and helps to leave your skin super glowy! The Bodyshop Glow Boosting Moisturiser is a firm staple of mine, and it really does leave your skin SO glowy. 

Because of its brightening properties it helps to reduce pigmentation, Vitamin C application has been shown to impede melanin production. Helping to leave you with a more even skin tone. It also is effective at relieving redness and dark circles! 

And finally Vitamin c is great for protecting you against sun damage!

Vitamin C is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants protect healthy skin cells by “giving” these free radicals, which cause sun damage to the skin,  an electron, rendering them harmless.

I am a massive lover of all skincare, but I do think that anything with vitamin c in is going to do wonders for your skin! so grab yourself an orange and a good vitamin c filled product you wont regret it!!!
