Vitamin C is an antioxidant that is required for at least 300 metabolic functions in the body. It helps with tissue repair and growth, adrenal gland function, and aids in the production of a variety of hormones and enzymes in the body. Vitamin C helps lower cholesterol, reduces the symptoms of asthma, protects against infections, boosts immunity, and has even shown to not only fight cancer cells but to actually prevent cancer cells from growing. Some research has even suggested using high doses of intravenous Vitamin C to treat cancer patients, showing a great reduction in tumor size with IV Vitamin C doses.
Vitamin C it is easily absorbed through the skin too. Vitamin C can aid in collagen production and can treat as well as prevent sun damage. Amazing! I have recently been adding Vitamin C serums to my daily facial cleansing routine. I've gotten to try a variety of products and thought I would pass along some pretty great products.
Instanaturals has quickly become one of my favorite companies. They are a great blend of organic meets science. Their age-defying skin serum is pretty fantastic too. This blends vitamin C with retinol, vitamin B6, and salicylic acid to treat wrinkles, blemishes, and sun damage. I really like this product, I tend to use this one more during a break out, but you need to use a moisturizer as it tends to be more drying.
Morea Naturals created a serum combining Vitamin C with Hyaluronic Acid and green tea. This is a nice, light serum that feels really good on the skin. I like to use this in the day time, under makeup, to make me feel more awake.
SANO has a serum similar to the Morea Naturals above. It also has hyaluronic acid and is a nice and light serum. It comes with a great eye gel that feels fantastic around the eyes first thing in the morning!
La Beatue Pure is probably my favorite Vitamin C serum I have used lately. It is just straight up Vitamin C. It is organic, all natural, alcohol free, and fragrance free. It is made by a small family owned company here in the USA. Love it! Check out there website by clicking here.
Some of the products above can be drying to the skin, so I like to use a good moisturizer. I really like Adovia products! They are in my top 4 favorite beauty brands! Their Anti-wrinkle cream is wonderful! It is a heavier cream, so I use it at night. It smells divine, absorbs nicely, and makes the kins feel great without being too heavy. Side note...it doesn't clog my pores either!
Vitamin C is an easy thing to add to your daily routine that has incredible benefits. Pill form, food form, or topical form...I would strongly encourage everyone to add more Vitamin C to their daily life. The benefits are limitless.
