Skin benefiting vitamins?

Asked by kb12345 (435points) April 23rd, 2011

I’m looking for a daily vitamin that can help my skin. Hopefully which will make it look brighter, healthier, fight of acne (main thing I want from a vitamin), softer skin etc. Anyone know of certain supplements or vitamins I could take? Thanks!

Vitamin E. Best to open the capsule and rub the stuff directly on the skin.

I have read that zinc and magnesium are supposed to help acne. Vitamin B’s promote healthy skin.

I’m happy to recommend Apple Cider Vinegar again.

Just saw this topic on the Doctors on tv on Friday. This is the Link on how to make your skin better and rid yourself of acne.
Two of the things the doctor recommends is ridding yourself of sugar and cow dairy products because she said the dairy is loaded in cow hormones and is often the cause of breakouts. She also list other things that are great for the skin.
Personally though I’m not to crazy about the idea of giving up dairy when we need it for our bones but as a temperary thing to help get a hold of your skin condition than I don’t see it being too bad. But try to get vitamins from other food sources that dairy would normally give you.
