Vitamins and Minerals for Great Skin

Vitamins and Minerals for Great Skin

Ever wonder why your grandma always told you to eat your fruits and veggies? Turns out, she was onto something – especially when it comes to your skin! Here’s how vitamins and minerals can give your skin that natural, healthy glow.

Vitamin A: Helps Your Skin Look Fresh

Benefits:

  • Encourages fresh, new skin cells
  • Helps smooth out those pesky fine lines
  • Keeps your skin looking vibrant and healthy

Where to find it:

Enjoy vitamin A-rich foods like spinach salads, eggs, and a glass of whole milk. These help your skin renew itself, giving you that fresh, glowing complexion.

Try this:

Our Aspen & Shea Butter Moisturizer has vitamin A to make your skin soft and glowing. It supports cell turnover, keeping your skin radiant and supple, even during harsh weather conditions.

Vitamin C: Protects Your Skin

Benefits:

  • Boosts your skin's natural collagen production
  • Fights off damaging free radicals
  • Gives your skin a bright, even tone

Where to find it:

Snack on strawberries for a vitamin C boost that supports collagen production and fights free radicals. Add a squeeze of lemon to your water or sip on rose hip tea for extra radiance.

Try this:

Our Rosewater & Vitamins Eye Lift Cream uses vitamin C to keep the skin around your eyes looking fresh. It softens, soothes, and revitalises your skin, leaving it radiant and refreshed all day long.

Vitamin E: Keeps Your Skin Soft

Benefits:

  • Protects your skin from environmental stressors
  • Calms irritated or inflamed skin
  • Locks in moisture for soft, supple skin

Where to find it:

Add sliced almonds to your yogurt, enjoy creamy avocado toast, or munch on sunflower seeds for vitamin E. These foods help maintain your skin’s moisture barrier, keeping it hydrated and healthy.

Try this:

Our Aloe, Olive & Avocado Lotion is full of vitamin E to keep your whole body soft.

Magnesium: Helps Your Skin Relax

Benefits:

  • Calms inflammation for a clearer complexion
  • Promotes overall relaxation (goodbye, stress breakouts!)
  • Supports your skin's overall health

Where to find it:

Leafy greens, whole grain bread, and nuts are excellent sources of magnesium. These nutrient-dense foods can help calm inflammation and support overall skin health.

Try this:

Our Effervescent Bath Fizzies w/Jojoba & Silk Proteins are infused with magnesium-rich Epsom salts. They transform your bath into a spa day, soothing your skin and your senses while promoting relaxation.

Other Good Stuff for Your Skin

We also made a Natural Mineral Deodorant. It uses natural minerals to keep you smelling fresh, without any harsh stuff. It's gentle but works great!

Other Tips For Glowing Skin

  • Eat a rainbow of fruits and vegetables daily to ensure you're getting a variety of skin-loving nutrients.
  • Stay hydrated – water helps your body absorb and utilize vitamins and minerals more effectively.
  • Use vitamin-rich skincare products consistently for best results.
  • Don't forget sun protection – it helps preserve the benefits of your vitamin-enriched skincare routine.
  • Consider a gentle exfoliation routine to help your skin better absorb topical vitamins and minerals.

Just like with your diet, regular use of vitamin-rich skincare products can lead to noticeable improvements over time. Your skin will thank you for the extra care and attention!

TIP: Bring back your empty bottles or jars to refill your Heliotrope products at a discount. It's our way of helping you save money while saving the environment!
