Beautiful Skin Might Just Be Some Vitamins Away

Posted by Laura Allen on May 26th, 2017

A lot of things change when I first went to college. For the most part, things changed for good. It was fun: the freedom, the friends, you know, college. Yeah, the tests were not so much fun as might be expected. But at first, what else got me a little worried was my skin. I had always had good skin and when I went to college, I realised that was not an accident. It was due to my good eating habits. One of the things that changed for the worse was my diet and after a few months, the effects showed up. In my skin.

I did what any college student would do first- Google. The results ranged from a mere bad lotion to something as scary as the onset of the plague. Dr Google. Of course, I knew it was nothing serious and the doctor, an actual doctor, confirmed. I was lacking vitamins.

I immediately went to Affordable Supplements and got the necessary vitamin supplements. I got my hands on Beast Yourself Optimal Beast 60 Vegi-Caps. Yes, the name says affordable but I made everything even cheaper by using Affordable Supplements voucher codes I got from My Favourite Voucher Codes, myfavouritevouchercodes.co.uk. I usually first check the site for codes before I do my shopping for anything.

 Here are a few symptoms I experienced and what I was told to do

 1. Dark Circles under the eyes

At first, I attributed this to the lack of sleep and it was to a great extent. But it was also a sign of leaking capillaries under the eye and the blood caused pigmentation. Since vitamin K is good for clotting, I was advised to take supplements of it. It put brakes on the problem and I saw an improvement after some weeks. Vitamin C was also necessary since it helps with the healing of any damaged leaking capillaries.

 2. Skin Spots

The funny spots that popped up on my skin where the most worrisome. The cause for this was found to be vitamin C deficiency. The vitamin is also called ascorbic acid and it licks up free radicals from your system, substances that speed up ageing. Vitamin C also help to build collagen and that is necessary for healthy toned skin.

 3. Redness

Redness is caused by poor hydration and might be the result of poor vitamin B3 intake. The vitamin works by facilitating the production of ceramides and fatty acids. These two are necessary components in the formation of the skin’s outer barrier. If the barrier is healthy, it allows the skin to retain moisture and keep foreign substances out.
