10 Vitamin C Products That'll Brighten Your Skin

If you've been paying attention to what's trending in beauty, then you know that Vitamin C is hot, hot, hot right now. Not only is it an essential vitamin that helps your body function to its fullest potential, it’s also a savior for your skin. If you haven't hopped on the trend yet, here are nine Vitamin C beauty products to help your face glow.

You can get your daily dose of Vitamin C in a ton of different ways. Oranges are a great source (does it still count in mimosas?), but you can also find Vitamin C in kale, cantaloupe, and strawberries. Because your body can’t product Vitamin C on its own, it relies on your healthy choices to get enough. The U.S. National Library of Medicine suggests at least 75mg of Vitamin C a day.

But what about your skin? Vitamin C helps regenerate cells, boost collagen, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and brighten a dull complexion. If you aren’t an orange fan and a cold, dreary winter is getting you down, reach for Vitamin C-packed products to nourish and repair your skin. You can find Vitamin C products everywhere, from the drugstore to the department stores, in serums, moisturizers, cleansers, and even foundations. No excuses!

So grab your Sephora card or stop by Walgreens and shop these essential sunny skin care items.
