Applying a cream with nutrients to the surface of you skin does not ensure
that those nutrients actually penetrate into your skin cells.
They may just "sit there" until your next shower.
How much of the active ingredients actually get into your skin cells
depends on the skin's condition, concentration of the ingredients,
manufacturing technology and many other factors.
This doesn't mean that all topical preparations are useless
-- but they are often unreliable. On the other hand,
when the nutrients are ingested and absorbed into your bloodstream,
they are sure to be delivered to your skin cells.
Nutrients does more for your skin!!!

What to look younger...?
Smoking constricts the blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the skin.
Nicotine may also increase production of the enzyme that breaks down collagen, accelerating the formation of wrinkles. When collagen breakdowns coupled with repetitive lip pursing and the squinting associated with shielding the eyes from smoke, fine lines and wrinkles become even more apparent.
Smokers lose vitamin C, vitamin B12, B5 and B6. Many people do not realize that vitamin C destroys B vitamins and will take the two vitamins together. Those two vitamins must be taken at least an hour apart. Tests have shown that smokers lose about 25mg of Vitamin C per cigarette.
Smokers in their 40s often have skin as wrinkled as non-smokers in their 60s, and smokers are twice as likely to develop skin cancer.
