Good for Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Eating more vitamin C makes skin look better, while using vitamin C cream for 12 weeks may help make skin smoother, and boosts collagen.

Protects from Sun Exposure

Vitamin C cream shields your skin from the sun. Mixing it with vitamin E is even better at protecting your skin from sun damage than using either one alone.

Provides Skin Hydration

Eating plenty of vitamin C keeps your skin from getting too dry.

Speeds Up Wound Healing

Vitamin C has ascorbic acid that may speeds up healing by making collagen.

Improves Elasticity of the Skin

When you put vitamin C on your skin, it helps make more collagen and elastin, which makes your skin tighter and firmer.

Lowers Dark Pigmentation of the Skin

Applying vitamin C on your skin may help with dark spots.

Fights Inflammation

Vitamin C fights inflammation and helps calm down skin inflammation when applied directly to the skin.
