Are Vitamin C & E essential for skin health?

There is a lot of talk about Vitamin C and E for skin. Skin actives help to elevate your results but it's critical that you address inflammation in the skin prior to incorporating any actives (Vitamin C) into your skin care routine. Sensitive, compromised, reactive skin cannot tolerate actives. 

Vitamin C and E are potent antioxidants that are essential for optimal skin health. We aren't able to produce or store Vitamin C or E in the body so we must obtain it through our diet, supplements or skin care. 

Vitamin C evens out skin tone and boosts collagen production while Vitamin E protects and heals inflamed skin.

Food sources of Vitamin C: citrus fruit, plums, peppers. strawberries. blackcurrants. broccoli. brussel sprouts. rosehips, potatoes.

Food sources of Vitamin E: wheatgerm oil, sunflower seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, peanut butter, collard greens, spinach, pumpkin, red pepper, salmon, avocado, mango, kiwi
