We all want glowing, healthy skin — that natural radiance that doesn’t rely on filters or foundation. While skincare products play a big role, true skin health starts from within. The right combination of daily nutrients, targeted supplements, and a consistent skincare routine can transform dull, tired skin into a vibrant, luminous complexion.
So, what does your skin really need each day?
1. Feed Your Skin From Within: Essential Nutrients
Your skin is the largest organ in your body, and it needs the right fuel to function and repair. Here are five key nutrients that support skin health:
🥬 Vitamin C
A powerful antioxidant that boosts collagen production, brightens skin, and helps fight pigmentation.
Best sources: Oranges, strawberries, bell peppers, broccoli.
🥑 Vitamin E
Helps protect the skin from oxidative stress and supports moisture balance.
Best sources: Almonds, sunflower seeds, spinach, and avocado.
🐟 Omega-3 Fatty Acids
These healthy fats keep skin plump, hydrated, and calm inflammation — especially beneficial for dry or acne-prone skin.
Best sources: Salmon, flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts.
🧄 Zinc
Plays a vital role in healing and can reduce breakouts by controlling oil production.
Best sources: Pumpkin seeds, chickpeas, lentils, oysters.
💧 Water
Yes, it’s simple — but hydration is everything. Drinking enough water daily helps flush toxins and keeps skin supple from the inside.
2. Should You Take Skin Supplements?
While a balanced diet is ideal, supplements can help fill nutritional gaps — especially when you’re busy, stressed, or dealing with specific skin concerns.
Here are a few we recommend for boosting skin health:
✨ Collagen
Collagen supplements (usually marine or bovine) may help improve skin elasticity and hydration. Perfect for anyone concerned with ageing or loss of firmness.
✨ Skin-specific Multivitamins
Many brands offer supplements tailored to skin health, combining zinc, biotin, selenium, and vitamins A, C, and E.
✨ Probiotics
Gut health and skin health are closely linked. A quality probiotic can reduce inflammation and improve conditions like acne or rosacea.
Note: Always consult a professional before adding new supplements to your routine, especially if you have allergies or take medication.
3. Topical Skincare That Complements Nutrition
Great skin starts on the inside — but skincare helps protect and enhance the outside. Here’s what we recommend for a glow-boosting daily routine:
🧼 Cleanse:
Use a gentle cleanser morning and night to remove buildup without stripping your skin.
🍊 Antioxidants:
Apply a Vitamin C serum in the morning to brighten skin and protect against environmental stressors.
💧 Hydration:
Use a lightweight moisturiser with hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and keep skin plump.
🌞 SPF:
Yes, every single day — even when it’s cloudy. Sun damage is the biggest cause of premature ageing and pigmentation.
🌙 Exfoliate:
Use a gentle exfoliant 2–3 times a week (like Dermalogica Daily Superfoliant) to slough off dead skin cells and reveal fresh, glowing skin.
4. Bonus Tips for Radiant Skin
-
Get 7–9 hours of sleep per night — your skin repairs itself while you rest.
-
Move your body daily — exercise boosts circulation and helps detox the skin.
-
Manage stress through mindfulness, yoga, or a good skincare routine you genuinely enjoy.
