"Hi I'm Kelli I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ultra salon and cosmetics. And I'm going to talk to you today about what some of the best vitamins for skin are. Vitamins A,C, E and F are some of the best ingredients that you can use for your skin. Both internally and externally . Vitamin A which is topically it can be used in Retin A. Basically it's a Retinal derivative. What it does is it helps with fine lines and wrinkles and it also helps to exfoliate and increase cellular turnover. Vitamin C is one of the most popular ingredient, vitamins found in skin care products. Both topically and internally, you can take it. Internally because it's a water soluble ingredient. It's something that you want to make sure that you are consistently taking cause it is washed out with bodily fluids. So you want to make sure that you take it pretty frequently. But for the skin basically it helps to repair collagen elastins so it helps to ensure the skin is nice and plump. And it also helps to fight environmental aggressors. So it's good for environmentally stressed skin or sun damaged skin. And your Omega's are really great ingredients for the skin as well. They help increase lipid production and barrier function. So they help to ensure that your skin functions very, the way it's suppose to and it also has a nice plumpness to it. So those are some of the best in vitamins that you can take for a healthy skin."
