Vitamin C: What is it and why is it so popular?

Vitamin C is loved by derms and estheticians everywhere, but do you really know what it does?

It helps to slow signs of early skin aging, prevents sun damage, and can even improve acne, wrinkles, and dark spots when used consistently. It’s also an antioxidant, which means it fights against free radicals (toxins). Free radicals can be external things such as smoke, air pollution, UV exposure, or it could be internal in processes like the metabolism. Vitamin C is a great answer for fighting against external free radicals.

Who Should Be Using Vitamin C?

Anyone looking for help with acne, uneven skin tone, dull skin, and wrinkles. Use it in your daily AM routine for best results, make sure it’s followed by a good SPF!

What If I’m Already Using A Serum In My Routine?

You’re allowed to use more than one serum, but vitamin C comes in all different products! For example, FarmHouse Fresh has a wide range of products containing vitamin C, here are some of my favorites:

“C the Future” is one of FHF’s newest products! This product has glycolic acid and vitamin c and leaves your skin brighter and smoother than ever! And it’s even gentle enough for daily use.

These peel pads are another new one from FHF, a perfect exfoliation step, and also contain vitamin C!

Mighty Brighty is chock full of Vitamin C! It has orange peel which is super rich in vitamin C and leaves your skin brighter and smoother! It also contains some cucumber extract, which also contains vitamin C.

So You See, This Is Why Everyone Loves Vitamin C!

It’s an antioxidant so it fights free radicals, it slows signs of aging, and can improve the look of wrinkles. It can even make your skin brighter and smoother. There are so many ways to incorporate vitamin C into your daily routine!
