Try Vitamin C: Even though the skin on our body is different from that on our face, that doesn't mean this skin should be neglected, and more brands are bringing out skincare body products. Vitamin C can brighten the skin, therefore any scarring, dark patches, and stretch marks can be treated using this ingredient.Rarely, mild reactions such as skin rash may occur, or allergic skin reactions on extremely sensitive skin. These effects tend to occur during the first few uses. If you notice any side effects, stop use and tell your doctor or pharmacist, they will tell you what to do. Precautions: Everyday soaps, shampoos and shower gels usually dry out the skin and can make skin conditions like eczema worse. Go fragrance-free: Fragrances in products are known to be a leading cause in skin allergies. The harsh chemicals can only sometimes lead to more dryness, flakiness, and redness upon application.
