Many factors influence skin aging, such as excessive sun exposure (enhanced by the famous UV rays), environmental pollution, alcohol and cigarette consumption, stress, poor diet, physical inactivity, among others. Vitamin C is an oxidant that reduces free radical damage and prevents premature aging, which is caused by increased cell oxidation, driven by these factors.
What are free radicals? - Free radicals are harmful structures that attack the noblest parts of cells. This causes oxidation, which in turn decreases collagen production and favors the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, making the face look older than it really is.
Here comes the leap of the cat: the use of dermo-cosmetics with vitamin C. "It [vitamin C] stimulates collagen production, which is essential for improving early wrinkles and fine lines, to firm the skin and reduce signs of fatigue, "explains Elaine Verissimo, director of R & D Arago Dermocosméticos.
Other benefits of vitamin C is to help clear blemishes and also even out the skin tone.
the spots appear because of a disorder in melanin, responsible for color skin and cell protection (melanocyte) Melanin is very sensitive and solar radiation is a major cause of this disorder.
Technology to Enhance the Effect - In addition to knowing the benefits that vitamin C has on the skin, you need to know how to choose the right technology for effective and effective results.
By applying topically (using dermo-cosmetics), you ensure the action providing a direct effect on the skin, as the one you eat will not protect your skin, so there is no use replacing daily use of vitamin C with a glass of juice. orange.
Which vitamin C to choose? - The technology employed in each product helps to enhance the action of the asset. "Vitamin C in nanotechnology enables it to permeate deeper layers where important processes related to the maintenance of collagen and elastin fibers occur," explains Elaine.
Remember that Vitamin C dermo-cosmetics in nanocosmetics can be used during the day as the asset is protected by a nanosphere, while free form C vitamins are not indicated for daytime use.
