Many fruits and vegetables that people eat are rich in vitamin C. As long as people eat these foods regularly, they will not be deficient in vitamin C. However, due to various reasons, such as some people have an unreasonable diet structure or poor gastrointestinal digestion function, etc., they will lack vitamin C. In addition, people often worry about spots on their faces. Can applying vitamin C on the face help remove spots? Can applying vitamin C on the face remove spots? When it comes to vitamin C, everyone knows that it can "enhance immunity and prevent colds." In fact, vitamin C is also a particularly effective antioxidant that can capture free oxygen radicals, reduce melanin, and promote collagen synthesis, which can effectively enhance the skin's ability to resist sun damage. Let’s take a closer look at the effects and functions of vitamin C. The main functions of Vitamin C are: collagen synthesis, antioxidant, anemia treatment, cancer prevention, cell protection, detoxification, liver protection, improving body immunity, and improving the body's emergency response capabilities. 1.

I saw many people on the Internet saying that dissolving vitamin C in mineral water and applying it on the face can whiten the skin. Is that true? Will I be allergic to it? Some people use compressed facial masks (vitamin C and mineral water are mixed together to make a compressed facial mask). Which of these two is more effective? People with sensitive skin should not use vitamin C as it may cause allergies because vitamin C is very irritating to the skin. In fact, vitamin C has many uses. Grinding it into powder and adding water to apply on the face can remove acne marks and whiten the skin because VC has a whitening effect. The compressed mask made by mixing vitamin C and mineral water together is the one mentioned. The effect is quite good because if you take VC, the skin cannot absorb it directly, but if you eat it, the skin can absorb it directly. But there are also things to pay attention to! The storage method of VC is to seal it and store it in a cool place. Because VC is easy to oxidize, it will turn from white to yellow once oxidized. That color of VC means it has no effect. Please pay attention to the time when applying it on your face. About 10 minutes is enough, otherwise it will not only fail to whiten your skin but will also make your skin yellow. |
