Taking good care of your skin is vitally important to your overall health. After all, it is your body’s largest organ! You need to ingest vitamins on a daily basis and apply those same vitamins to your skin for optimum healthy results.
Here is a little list of the vitamins that your skin needs to stay healthy and look its best.
* Vitamin C – Helps to restore skin’s luster, appearance of youthfulness, repair tissue damage and it increases collagen production.
* Vitamin E– Helps to repair skin damage, reduce scarring and stimulates cell regeneration.
* Vitamin A – Helps to regulate sebum production, reduce acne breakouts and prevents clogged pores.
* Vitamin B – Helps to retain skin’s moisture, reduce wrinkles and helps to heal up dry, scaly patches.
* Vitamins C & E – Help to protect the skin from sun and environmental damage. Selenium can help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
* Retinol A (Retinoic Acid) – is a form of vitamin A that helps to treat fine lines & wrinkles, lighten and prevent age spots and can help to retexturize your skin.
Although not a vitamin, you need to drink plenty of water for skin health. In addition, use a good hydrating moisturizer and make sure to cleanse your skin with a good cleanser at least once a day.

I always knew vitamins were good for me but I got a great example recently. My mother was in the hospital and rehab for over a month. In that month I was just so busy I did not take any of my vitamins. By the end of the month i could tell with my skin and nails … Back on schedule
I agree that vitamins are very important for one’s skin as well as general health. I take various vitamins and supplements.
I do take a multiple vitamin made for women. Its nice to know that I’m helping myself.
I keep forgetting how good other vitamins are for you. I do take C every day. I put them with my other pills I take daily.
I wish I c could remember to take my multi vitamin on a daily basis! I am honestly bad at remembering. The silly part is it is right by my other meds that I do take daily. I need to take better care of myself for real.
