WHY IS VITAMIN C IMPORTANT?
Vitamin C is important as it is both preventative and corrective. Vitamin C neutralizes the damage caused by free radicals, which helps prevent premature aging. When paired with sunscreen, vitamin C can help fortify the strength of SPF. And in general, regular application of vitamin C helps brighten the appearance of dark spots and restore skin’s natural bounce.
