A Rookie Guide to Vitamin C Skin CareHere are a few dermatologist and editor vitamin C favorites for brighter, plumper, stronger skin. |
The skin care industry is full of buzzy ingredients promising to transform an ordinary complexion into brighter, younger, healthier skin. While some of these ingredients are hot for only a season and fade away, there are a few tried-and-true game changers that skin experts depend on day in and day out. If you've ever been to a dermatologist or esthetician, it's likely you've heard of vitamin C skin care. Most of the time, vitamin C is recommended to brighten or even out uneven skin tones, but there is so much more to this powerhouse ingredient. We talked with Houston-based cosmetic and dermatologic surgeon Dr. Suneel Chilukuri about the benefits of incorporating vitamin C into a daily skin routine.
Vitamin C is an acid that has a myriad of benefits to address popular skin concerns. "Vitamin C does so much more than simply brighten the skin," says Chilukuri. "It's an antioxidant that fights free radicals, increases collagen deposition, improves the skin barrier and reduces existing skin discoloration." So if you're struggling with hyperpigmentation, a dull complexion or just want plumper, livelier skin, vitamin C is a great addition to your daily skin regimen.
