Wrinkles, fine lines and crow’s feet—there are many ways our skin tries to tell us that it is in dire need of anti-ageing ingredients that will heal the skin from within and arm our skin against ageing signs. The answer to ageing skin woes lie in Vitamins. Plenty of vital Vitamins are the heroes behind healthy and wrinkle-free skin. These ingredients not only stimulate collagen levels but also arm your skin against potential damage. Curious to know more? Here’s a low-down on all the essential Vitamins your skin needs to fight its battle against premature ageing...
 

Vitamin C

Vitamin C

Yes, we’ve been hearing about the trusted Vitamin C being an immunity booster for years now. But did you know about it being one of the most powerful anti-ageing ingredients in your skin care products? Well, that’s because Vitamin C instantly accelerates the production of collagen in your body as well as fights hard to protect you against the ill effects of free radicals that increase ageing signs in your skin. If you wish to up your intake of Vitamin C, make sure you consume bell peppers, kiwis, oranges and broccoli in abundance.

 

Vitamin A

Vitamin A

Oxidation due to free radicals is known to be one of the primary causes behind premature ageing. This is when the benefits of something like retinol aka Vitamin A come into play. This is because Vitamin A works as an exfoliator on your skin to reduce sun damage, fine lines and saggy skin. To give your skin a dose of retinol, we suggest you get your hands on the Pond's Age Miracle Cell ReGEN Day Cream with SPF 15 PA++ that contains retinol boosters and gives your skin that inner glow along with saving it from the harmful sun rays. This means you not only save your skin from ageing further but you also help it stay armed against the harmful UV rays.

 

Vitamin E

Vitamin E

One of the biggest monsters behind ageing skin is dryness. When your skin is dry, it’s also dehydrated and devoid of moisture. Vitamin E is known as an anti-ageing ingredient since it retains the moisture in your skin—something that is crucial to ageing skin. Moreover, it also helps your skin fight UV rays that are known to cause dark spots and fine lines. To give your skin a dose of Vitamin E, make sure you include nuts, seeds and green leafy vegetables in your diet.

 

Vitamin K

Vitamin K

As you age, puffy eyes and dark circles tend to get worse. Vitamin K aids in breaking blood clots as well as in bettering blood circulation, which eventually clears the skin problems around your eyes since your eyes are the most sensitive part of your skin. To up your intake of Vitamin K, make sure you have loads of brussels sprouts, dairy, green leafy vegetables and cabbage in your diet.
