You know that vitamin C is great for your body. And we all know how great vitamin C is for your skin. It's a powerhouse when it comes to combating aging and improving the appearance of your skin. The research surrounding vitamin C's benefits for your skin keeps coming in — and now researchers have confirmed just how good and effective this nutrient is.
There's a lot of research supporting vitamin C's efficacy when it comes to skin care. When studies about a particular topic begin to pile up, it's common for researchers to conduct a review study to evaluate and synthesize what's been found so far on a particular topic. One such review was recently published in the journal Biomolecules. The researchers wanted to determine some of the best ways to stop oxidative stress, which as you probably know, is a major factor in skin aging.

I have patients and friends who have started using it morning and night and they have sent me New Year's greetings and thank yous. One of my patients told me that in a week of using it twice daily under her moisturizer, she has noticed significant improvement in the texture of her skin and her pore size. She's being consistent and looks forward to seeing some of her facial brown spots diminish.
