Vitamin C Serum, does it work?

Posted by Andrew Feyen on

We know what you’re thinking.

“Another ‘miracle’ skincare product to add to the collection *eye roll*. Why should I add this product to my daily routine over the hundreds of others out there on the market?”

Well, lucky for you, here at Soul Good Naturals, natural products are our passion. We firmly believe that less is more, and with a few well chosen, good quality, pure products... you can realign your beauty routine and transform your skin.

For thousands of years, women have always found ways to enjoy the anti-aging effects that Vitamin C has on their skin. Across the planet, from women in Tibet living during the Tang Dynasty, to Native American women living centuries ago. Vitamin C has always been a prized staple in skin care routines. Revelled for it’s skin-rejuvenating effects, and ability to promote firm, youthful skin.

Modern medicine has recently come to realize why these herbal remedies were so trusted by ancient civilizations. Here, we are going to break down the basic science behind how Vitamin C Serum works, and how you can work it into your daily routine to enjoy it’s natural benefits.

Let’s start with collagen. We’ve all heard the word, but what is it, actually? Collagen is a structural support protein that is abundant in our bodies. It is a kind of supermolecule that helps give our skin strength and elasticity, along with replacing dead skin cells. It is an essential protein for smooth, even skin.

The production, or ‘synthesis’, of collagen is a process that naturally slows down with aging. However this can be extremely accelerated by outside effects such as sunlight and environmental factors. Now, here at Soul Good Naturals we are big fans of Mr. Sunshine and everything to do with the great outdoors. But enjoying these things, can cause our skin to take a beating. It may not be noticeable day to day, but after years of enjoying our beautiful world, you will start to notice the effect on your skin.

That’s why it is so important to take action reversing these effects now. No matter your age, it is vital to start using Vitamin C Serum to preemptively avoid wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of aging. Our serum will keep your skin looking young and radiant, not only by stimulating collagen production, but also by evening out your skin tone and brightening your complexion.


HOW TO USE

For best results, use daily. Now, we all know our minds are racing with important thoughts for the day so the best way to make sure you don’t forget to apply daily is to make it part of your routine.

We suggest you apply your Vitamin C Serum after your morning shower when your skin is warm and supple. This is when your skin will best absorb our serum’s key ingredients. Drop a small palm full of serum into your hand and rub your hands together. Massage the serum lightly into your face, neck and decolletage*. Follow with your favorite moisturizer.

For an even better result, this process can be repeated at night, after showering or washing your face.

*The skin on the décolletage (your chest, cleavage and tops of shoulders) is very fragile as it produces less natural oils than the face. It also often receives more sun exposure so neglecting to nourish it can result in premature aging quicker than you'd imagine. Make sure to include this area in your facial routine!
