Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that has a range of benefits for the skin, making it an important ingredient to include into your skincare routine.

Firstly, let's get some background on what antioxidants are and how they work. Antioxidants protect the skin from free radicals, which are molecules that can cause damage to cells and accelerate the aging process. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to neutralise these free radicals, protecting the skin from damage and preventing premature ageing.

It is also essential for collagen production. Collagen is a protein that gives skin its elasticity and strength, and as we age, our natural collagen production slows down. Vitamin C helps to boost collagen production, which can improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Another benefit of Vitamin C is its ability to brighten the skin and even out skin tone. Vitamin C can help to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and dark spots, giving the skin a more radiant and youthful appearance.

When it comes to incorporating Vitamin C into your skincare routine, here are three products you can use from Organic Ministry Skincare to give you that glow.

Essentials Exfoliating Vitamin Crystals

Our Essential Exfoliating Vitamin Crystals contain 15% Vitamin C to help give your skin that glowy complexion. This product also contains Malic Acid and Aloe Vera to help dissolve dead skin cells to reveal fresh, soft and smooth skin.

It is a dry powder designed to mix with your favourite cleanser. This also gives you the ability to choose how gentle or intense you wish your exfoliant to be. Not only that, it will help your following product applications to penetrate deeper into the skin, making them more effective.

Eternal Vitamin C Serum

The Eternal Vitamin C Serum contains a 20% blend of Vitamin C and Kakadu Plum (being a very stable form of Vitamin C). This serum will give your skin an instantly brighter appearance, as well as help the skin to build up its natural collagen production.

Eternal Renewal Cream

The Eternal Renewal Cream is a brilliant dual-action moisturiser that helps to deeply moisturise the skin as well as exfoliate. Using active ingredients such as Jojoba Oil, Shea Butter, Malic Acid and Pomegranate, this helps to increase natural cellular renewal. With 5% Vitamin C, you will be left with brighter, smoother and more hydrated skin. 

Incorporating Vitamin C into your skincare routine to protect the skin from damage, boost collagen production, and brighten the complexion is a must!
