Vitamin D
“The main benefits of topical vitamin D lie in its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, proliferative, and skin repairing properties,” Dr. Sadick says. The phrase anti-inflammatory is one that should immediately trigger a double dose of heart eyes, since inflammation is at the root of pretty much all skin conditions — from acne to eczema to garden variety redness. And because vitamin D is anti-oxidative as well (aka, it’s an antioxidant), this substance neutralizes the effects of pollution on the skin. While those two benefits are great — who doesn’t want less inflammation and more environmental protection? — they’re not exactly unique. A handful of other vitamins (like the aforementioned A, C, and E) boast the same.
But “proliferative” and “skin-repairing?” This is where vitamin D sets itself apart. In layman’s terms, this substance has the power to regenerate skin cells and repair damage; essentially upping the skin’s resilience, strengthening its barrier, and evening out tone and texture. “It is absolutely one of my favorite ingredients to help improve and preserve the integrity of the skin,” Suzanne LeRoux, green beauty expert and founder of One Love Organics, tells TZR. This makes it an especially smart pick for those who have sensitive, irritated, or compromised skin (maybe from an overzealous application of benzoyl peroxide or retinol?), and stands in contrast to the sometimes-sensitizing properties of vitamin C.
