Four individual vitamin serums to address all your skin concerns

We all know how good vitamins are for us, we try to eat our 5 a day in the attempt to stay healthy.  And a healthy complexion does come from within but, only a small percentage of these vitamins actually reach the skin.  So, topping up your daily vitamins topically makes complete sense.  Knowing your vitamin ABC could give you glowing skin and help hold back the signs of ageing.

No one knows your skin better than you.  It can change from one day to the next, everything from stress and fluctuating hormones to bad weather and pollution can take its toll.  Having this skin first aid kit to hand will help settle, calm and rebuild the skin’s defences quickly and efficiently.

How do I know which vitamins my skin needs?

To make life simple, Alpha-H the pioneers of Liquid Gold, the glycolic acid overnight sensation, have developed the Vitamin Profiling Collection to tackle all your skin concerns.  The super easy to use Collection contains four of the most beneficial concentrated vitamin skin serums.  Each 25ml bottle is packed with optimum levels of nutrients and antioxidants to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy. 

 

Alpha-H Vitamin Profiling CollectionAlpha-H has customised four vitamin serums, A, B, C, and E each of which have a unique profile in terms of their specific skincare benefits.  These are:

Vitamin A
The anti-ageing serum, use at night for firmer, clearer skin which shows less signs of lines and wrinkles.  Vitamin A is proven to help hold back the years, just remember to always wear a sunscreen during the day.

Vitamin B
You can use this serum day or night or both, it helps build moisture and collagen and surpasses pigmentation and redness. 

Vitamin C
Use during the day, this antioxidant restores skin clarity and radiance and may help protect against sun damage.

Vitamin E
First Aid in a bottle, this serum promotes skin healing and repair.  It can be used at any time your skin needs a little TLC.

Having these for powerful vitamin serums on hand will allow you to tailor make your skincare regime to suit exactly what your skin needs at any time.  Alpha-H has created a profiling wheel for you to determine exactly what your skin needs and when.  For example:
