They play a significant role in maintaining healthy skin.
Vitamin A: Modulates the immune response, maintains homeostasis of epithelial tissues and mucosa through retinoic acid, and has anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
Vitamin C: Assists in antioxidant defense against UV-induced photodamage, induces collagen biosynthesis, increases epidermal thickness, and accelerates wound healing.
Vitamin D: Has anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative effects, inhibits the production of psoriasin and koebnerisin.
Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba): Has anti-inflammatory properties, boosts topical medication absorption, and speeds wound closure. It also stimulates collagen I production and enhances antibacterial action.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Helps strengthen the skin’s barrier function, reduces inflammation, and evens out skin tone. It enhances the skin’s natural moisture retention, leading to plumper and more hydrated skin.
Collagen: Keeps skin looking firm and youthful. Hydrolyzed collagen supplements can help replenish this essential protein, improving skin elasticity and hydration.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Commonly found in fish oil supplements, they help regulate oil production, maintain hydration, and prevent acne. They also have anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe irritated skin.
Probiotics: Boost beneficial bacteria in the digestive system, help balance the gut microbiome, reduce inflammation, and improve skin conditions such as acne and eczema.
Hyaluronic Acid: Aids in skin hydration, diminishes fine lines and wrinkles.
Zinc: Helps the skin heal after an injury and acts as an antioxidant. Zinc deficiency can cause an itchy rash that won't get better with moisturizers and steroid creams.
Selenium: Helps certain antioxidants protect the skin from UV rays and may reduce the risk of skin cancer.
Biotin: Supports the production of keratin, a protein important for the health and appearance of skin, hair, and nails.
