Vitamin C Skin Care for Affiliates

 

The Benefits of Vitamin C – Vitamin C Cream and Serum for Affiliates

Experts have known about the skin benefits of Vitamin C for years.  It is not the newest ingredient, but it is still one of the best ingredients available for you skin.  Vitamin C is an excellent choice for anti aging products. 

Vitamin C is used in many products from anti aging creams and serums to skin lighteners and brighteners.  It is used so often because it has been shown to reduce damage from free radicals.  It is also used to stimulate the production of collagen. 

Collagen is the protein that makes up the main structure of the skin.  When a person is young collagen is constantly being generated and turned over.  As you get older the collagen begins to have wear and tear and damage from the elements.  Production of collagen also decreases with age.  Skin begins to wrinkle and droop as collagen is lost and broken down.  Vitamin C can help to reverse this process by helping the skin to produce collagen.  There are other options such as collagen injections.  Injects however, only work temporarily and can have adverse side effects. 

The only problem with Vitamin C is that it oxidizes and looses its effectiveness when exposed to air.  This makes it harder to deliver in skin care products.  One solution is to use it in higher concentrations.  This does sometimes make the product cost more.    

Another option is to uses a Vitamin C derivative.  There are some derivatives, like ascorbyl palmintate and ascorbyl phosphate, that have been found to work and don’t oxidize.   They do not tend to be as effective as pure Vitamin C, but they are easier to incorporate in lotions and creams without the worry of oxidation.  

Using a cream or serum with the proper amount and delivery of Vitamin C can help make skin look smoother and younger.  Increasing the amount and quality of collagen in the skin is the key to more youthful and healthy skin.
