Reasons To Add Vitamin C Face Wash In Your Skincare Routine

So much has been written about Vitamin C in skincare that we decided to once again revisit this skincare favorite to ascertain how best to use Vitamin C Face Wash in our daily skincare routine.

WHY DO DERMATOLOGISTS RECOMMEND VITAMIN C IN SKINCARE

Vitamin C is good for our skin and for our overall health. For instance, it helps our bodies absorb other nutrients such as iron more efficiently. Vitamin C boosts immunity against infections, helps wounds heal faster and also affects mood & energy levels. It impacts cardiovascular health by keeping blood vessels elastic.

Here are the top reasons why specialists recommend Vitamin C for your skin:

  • Vitamin C boosts your skin’s collagen levels. In addition it stabilizes skin collagen levels. This makes it great as an anti-ageing warrior.
  • Vitamin C tackles pigmentation. Vitamin C inhibits the production of an enzyme that triggers melanin formation. This helps reduce and prevent formation of dark spots and scars.
  • Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps repair free radical damage which makes it a great active ingredient to combat sun damage, loss of moisture and pollution damage to your skin.
  • It boosts the power of your sunscreen because of to its antioxidant properties - which means that the layering of Vitamin C under your sunscreen fights free radical damage caused by UV exposure.
  • It is one of those rare active ingredients that has something to offer all skin types. In fact it is great for almost all skin concerns you can think of - from pigmentation to dark spots, rosacea, acne and early signs of aging.

Despite the many benefits of vitamin C, human beings cannot synthesize this vitamin in our bodies. Nor are we able to store it. Vitamin C is water soluble. Excess Vitamin C is simply passed out in our urine in case we ingest excess amounts of the vitamin via our diet or via oral supplements.

Bottom line is that we need to ensure a regular daily intake of this vitamin in our diet. This also applies to topical application via our skincare.

HOW EFFECTIVE IS VITAMIN C?

Clinical studies have shown the potency of L-Ascorbic Acid. Products using this active penetrate skin tissue and step up collagen production. As a result, it makes skin appear smoother and firmer. It can also play a part in reduction of photo damage caused by harmful UVB rays.

Select a well-formulated product which uses a stable form of Vitamin C to get the best benefit of this ingredient.

SOME IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT VITAMIN C

  • Vitamin C is an unstable active. Exposure to heat and/or light can degrade it and make it less potent. Never purchase a Vitamin C product that comes in a jar or that is packed in clear glass bottles.
  • Store your Vitamin C products in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight.
  • Don’t be disappointed if you do not see results immediately. Use your products regularly and consistently. Be mindful of expiry dates and use up your product within 6 months of opening the bottle.
