Vitamin C

Vitamin C is found naturally in many citrus fruits as well as certain vegetables, and offers multiple benefits for the skin—but vitamin C isn't produced naturally by the body so it must be obtained from other sources. Vitamin C-rich foods and supplements are beneficial for your overall health, but after it's digested there's very little left for the skin. One way to ensure your skin gets a daily boost of vitamin C is by choosing skincare products made with the vitamin and adding them to your skincare regimen.
