Beauty Essentials by Douglas Labs is a comprehensive, broad-spectrum multivitamin and mineral supplement combined with powerful antioxidant extracts designed to improve the appearance and health of skin, hair, and nails. Healthy skin, hair, and nails requires a healthy diet containing the right balance and quantity of vitamins and minerals. However, sometimes diet alone isn't enough to cover all of our nutritional needs. Stress, poor absorption, and depleted soils can increase our requirements for certain micronutrients.
Beauty Essentials takes care of your nutritional needs while providing phytochemical support to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. It contains all eight B vitamins to help boost energy levels and vitality. The B vitamin biotin has been shown to significantly increase the growth of hair and nails in people that are deficient.
It also contains important micronutrients that are commonly deficient such as vitamin D, magnesium, and potassium. Magnesium is involved in over 300 processes in the body and is important for skin hydration, cellular repair, and reducing inflammation. Vitamin D helps with inflammation and immune function.
Beauty Essentials includes N-acetylcysteine and alpha-lipoic acid to help increase glutathione levels and protect tissues including the skin from oxidative stress and inflammation. A polyphenol blend of green tea, blueberry, pomegranate, grape, and olive extracts provides additional antioxidant support to quench free radicals that can damage the hair, skin, and nails.
Polyphenols from green tea are also effective in controlling blood sugar levels. High blood sugar levels result in collagen cross-linking in the skin, which occurs when a sugar molecule binds to a collagen protein. This causes collagen to become stiff and brittle and leaves the skin vulnerable to the wear and tear of everyday life. Rounding out the antioxidant arsenal is a blend of the skin-protective carotenoids lutein, zeaxanthin, and lycopene to improve skin tone and elasticity.
Beauty Essentials contains clinically-backed ingredients designed to:
- Increase antioxidant defenses and reduce inflammation
- Improve the health and appearance of skin, hair and nails
- Support optimal energy levels and overall health and wellness
