VITAMIN A
Vitamin A also
known as retinoids are proven to reduce wrinkles, fade brown spots, and smooth
roughness. They’re tried-and-true ingredients, anyone who wants younger-looking
skin should use one .Apply your retinoid at night because sunlight inactivates
most forms of vitamin A. Prescription retinoids work fastest, within four to
eight weeks.

Note: Some
retinoids can cause redness, scaling, and flaking. If you’re new to retinoid
use, start by applying every second or third night for the first two weeks, and
build up to nightly use. Apply sparingly; a pea-size amount is enough to cover
your entire face.

VITAMIN B3
Vitamin B3 often called Niacinamide is proven to increase production of
ceramides and fatty acids, two key components of your skin’s outer protective
barrier. As that barrier is strengthened, skin is better able to keep moisture
in and irritants out, making B3 a great ingredient if your complexion is dry or
sensitive. A moisturizer with niacinamide improved the flushing and blushing of
rosacea, a common condition that can worsen with age. Another B3 skin care
benefit is that it inhibits the transfer of pigment to skin cells, minimizing
dark spots.

For maximum
results, apply B3 vitamins in the morning and evening. To reduce irritation
from your retinoid, use it in conjunction with niacinamide. Mix them together
in the palm of your hand before applying—they won’t inactivate each other. Besides
decreasing side effects, the combo produces superior anti-aging benefits.

VITAMIN C
Vitamin C helps to
mop up the free radicals that trigger wrinkling, sagging, and other aging
changes. It also helps smooth and firm skin and fades brown spots. Though the
benefits of Vitamin A and Vitamin C sound similar, using both delivers more
complexion perfection. Apply vitamin C in the morning before sunscreen to
shield your skin from any UV, generated free radicals that get by your
sunblock.

VITAMIN E
The best anti-aging
products contain at least 1% vitamin E.

helping skin retain its natural moistures, neutralizes damaging free radicals,
and boosts the skin’s UV defenses. Also, vitamin E’s potent ability to

Apply before and
after serious sun exposure. A single strong blast of UV light can destroy half
the skin’s natural supply of E, so shore up defenses by slathering on a
sunscreen supplemented with E and C before going into the sun.

VITAMIN K
It helps lighten under-eye
circles. Fragile capillaries that allow blood to leak into skin are considered
one cause of under-eye circles, and vitamin K (aka phytonadione) may put the
skids on this seepage by controlling blood clotting. Daily use of a K cream
significantly lightened circles after 4 months. Apply at night.
