Some great vitamins for your skin are the powerful antioxidant vitamins A, C and E.
These vitamins are great for your skin because they help prevent aging, wrinkles, and fine
lines. The best sources of antioxidants are from foods such as the ones you see here:
dark leafy greens, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, and also a variety of nuts like sunflower
seeds, almonds, and hazelnuts. Out of the B complex vitamins, vitamin B7, which is also
known as biotin is great for the skin. Biotin is important because it's the nutrient that
forms the foundation of hair, skin, and nail cells. Without adequate amounts it can lead
to itchy, scaly, dry skin, hair, and nails. Even a mild deficiency can cause such symptoms.
Some great natural sources of biotin include eggs, rice, bananas, and oatmeal.
