Spotlight on: Beauty-boosting food supplements
Many skin conditions are consequential of internal factors such as health-related issues, vitamin deficiency, etc.
Beauty-boosting supplements are an incredibly effective way of combating conditions such as dull skin and loss of glow. Many dermatologists are recommending food supplements to women for treating skin from the inside.
One recent trend in Israel: nutri-cosmetic supplements should renew and improve the production of collagen and keratin, instead of injecting foreign collagen or fillers from the outside, thereby attenuating the aging process of the skin, nails and hair.
Slowing skin ageing, protection from UV, anti-pollution claims and more
