If you want to look like a 30 something year old well into your 50’s…then you may do something other than pray! Today I want to talk to you about Vitamin C and why its one of my favourite ingredients. Firstly, its ideal for women and men of all age groups.

The bane of any women’s existence are fine lines and wrinkles, the regular use of vitamin c products can combat their very appearance because of their concentrated levels of antioxidant rich vitamin C, which helps boost collagen production, plumping out those fine lines and wrinkles. Are we all aware that our collagen factory starts to slow down each year we age, so guys its up to us to get those collagen boosting ingredients into our own skins?

In addition to its anti-ageing benefits, topical vitamin C is also great for protecting your skin from UVA and UVB rays. It is a powerful antioxidant, which means its like a shield to your skin protecting it from those bad things in the air such as free radicals, pollution and pesticides from farms.
