It contains impressive ingredients that will protect, hydrate, and brighten up dull aging skin. If you’re finally ready to reveal your best skin yet, then you’ve come to the right place. We’ve created an expert guide to Vitamin C and why it should become a staple in your skincare routine.
WHAT IS VITAMIN C
Of course when we think of Vitamin C the first thing that comes to mind is fruits, veggies, and other wholesome foods. Basically all the healthy things that can fuel a healthy mind, body, and SKIN. Yes, we said. Incorporating Vitamin C not only in your diet but also skincare routine can provide essential protection against free radicals and air pollution. Vitamin C is an ascorbic acid which in other words is a key nutrient that plays a big role in maintaining healthy skin. It also boosts collagen and elastin production due to these acidic ingredients that trick the skin into thinking it needs healing. As we all know collagen and elastin are the glue to keeping the skin tight, glowy, and youthful. Still not convinced? Keep reading.
BENEFITS OF USING VITAMIN C?
- Vitamin C is an antioxidant which plays a crucial role in protecting the skin from damaging radicals such as UV rays.
- Vitamin C is known for brightening up the skin because it slows down melanin production which helps to even out a complexion, improves hyperpigmentation, brown spots, and rosacea.
- Medical-grade Vitamin C serums often contain magnesium ascorbyl phosphate and this has proven to maintain skin hydration. Say HELLO to moisturized skin.
- Vitamin C boosts collagen and elastin production which is key to ageless looking skin
HOW TO INCORPORATE VITAMIN C INTO YOUR ROUTINE
Besides eating nutritious packed foods with Vitamin C you can also invest in a medical-grade Vitamin C serum. This product will directly provide your skin with all the amazing benefits when incorporated into your daily skincare routine. Vitamin C products can often be paired with any of your other skincare products but we recommend consulting with your Aesthetician at Images Med Spa first. These serums usually are used in your morning routine only. Since they protect your skin during the day when you’re outside that would make this the most effective time. Depending on your skincare routine you should always apply products from thinnest to thickest when it comes to the texture and consistency.
AM Routine:
Step 1: Cleanser
Step 2: Vitamin C Serum
Step 3: Moisturizer
Step 4: SPF
