We were lucky enough to catch up with Dr. Lancer to discover some of his skincare secrets and beauty tips. Coning into the colder months, we wanted to know just what is the best vitamin for healthy skin and how you can incorporate it into your beauty routine.
What Is The Best Vitamin To Use For Healthy Skin?
Vitamin C is a personal favourite ingredient of mine because it has excellent therapeutic benefits for the skin in addition to aesthetic benefits.
I developed Advanced C Radiance Treatment with 10% Vitamin C and Retinol to help gently and effectively regulate pigment in aging skin and help support natural collagen levels. Regular exfoliation is so important to healthy, glowing skin but I always recommend following-up your exfoliation with an application of a Vitamin C based treatment and a high-quality moisturizer. Vitamin C is critically important not only as an antioxidant but it has an effect on the immune system, and keeps the machinery of the human body functioning well, especially when taken orally. For example, when patients have sunburns, I tell them to take 4g of Vitamin C orally, twice a day for 2 days and that helps reverse some of the damage of the sunburn. In terms of oral Vitamin C, adding fresh lemon juice to a glass of filtered water naturally stimulates the digestive system, provides essential hydration, boosts the immune system and will leave you feeling more energized.
