Vitamins for anti-ageing

To help maintain your youth 111SKIN recommend topping up your daily dose of vitamins and antioxidants through taking the Radiant Beauty Dose Supplements. The supplements will not only improve your health on the inside, but also improve your appearance on the outside.

These scientifically developed supplements were based on the original formula that were tested on astronauts. Faced with extreme environmental conditions, the ingredients within the supplements proved to defy ageing and stimulate the body’s natural defence. Below, Dr Alexandrides highlights why the vitamins in the Radiant Beauty Dose Supplements can help your skin to stay looking youthful:

Vitamin A

Extensive research has proven that Vitamin A is effective in treating fine lines and wrinkles as well as sun spots, and uneven skin tone and texture. A further study by the Journal Of Dermatological Science found that vitamin A can help to restore elasticity of the skin to help keep the skin firm and tight.

Whilst Vitamin A is able to reduce signs of ageing, it can also help to prevent signs of ageing. Its antioxidant properties help to neutralise skin damaging free radicals. This damage causes a process of oxidation and has been attributed as one of the main causes of ageing.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is key when it comes to making the skin look more youthful due to its ability to prevent free radical damage. Similarly to Vitamin A, Vitamin C is able to prevent the skin from being damaged by factors such as: smoking, sun exposure, stress, pollution and radiation. In addition, it is able to brighten the skin evening out signs of ageing such as sun spots and age spots.

Vitamin C is also helpful to the skin’s structure. It has the ability to stimulate collagen production and make the skin look more youthful and plump.

Vitamin E

This vitamin is recognised for its moisturising properties. Vitamin E has the ability to hydrate the skin and repair it when it is dry whilst retaining essential moisture. Moisture is essential to the skin in term of anti-ageing as when the skin is dry it can look sallow and lack the plumpness and volume that is associated with a youthful glow.
