Looking to enhance your beauty routine from the inside out?
Here are some supplements & foods that can transform skin (c/o dermatologist Dr. Sejal Shah)
1) Growth Factors & Peptides
Look for serums & creams with these ingredients to repair & regenerate the skin.
2) Hyaluronic Acid
HA is a component in your skin that helps it retain moisture. It can be an ingredient in your skincare and/or injected in filler form (Juvederm, Restalyn, etc).
3) Hydroxy Acids
AHAs will soften lines and help cell turnover for a more even appearance.
4) Natural Oils: Avocado, Mariela, Olive, Grapeseed, etc.
Great for dry, sensitive skin and those who prefer chemical-free skincare.
5) Retinol
Retinol use increases collagen & elastin by speeding cell turnover. Be sure to use sunblock if treating with Retinol.
6) Vitamin C
Brightens skin, calms inflammation & softens fine lines and wrinkles. Make sure you packaging of your Vitamin C skincare is a dark bottle with pump to limit exposure to air & light.
7) Vitamin B3
An anti inflammatory & anti-irritant that calms general redness & discoloration.
