the best vitamins for beauty.

Do you remember taking your Flintstone vitamin when you were a kid? I sure do. Those cartoon shaped pills had everything we needed to be strong and healthy. These days, it takes a bit more to keep our bodies working the way they should. Especially when it comes to achieving healthy hair, nails, and glowing skin. The truth? You don’t need fancy packaging and celebrity endorsements. All of the essentials are on the shelves of your local drugstore. Let’s take a closer look at the best vitamins for beauty…

Speed Up Hair Growth With Biotin. Sick and tired of waiting for your bob to grow out? Hate your last haircut? Wish you had a little more length? There is nothing more frustrating than wanting your hair to grow faster. Especially when it seems totally out of our control. Well, vitamins might be the answer. Biotin works to strengthen your hair, prevent hair loss, and promote hair growth. Pick up a multi-vitamin with biotin in it, a bottle of biotin, or start adding biotin rich foods into your diet. (Think dairy products, tuna, and salmon.) Gorgeous growing hair is within your reach!

Improve Nail Strength With Iron. One of the most common vitamins we are low on is iron. This can affect our bodies in a number of ways, from feeling weak to having dry and brittle nails. Do your nails always seem to break or split? Then increase your iron intake. Add an iron supplement to your daily routine. Or you can always eat more foods with iron, such as green leafy vegetables and nuts. Another healthy nail tip is to combat poor nail growth or white spots with zinc.

Snag Youthful (And Glowing!) Skin With Vitamins C and E. How much money do you shell out on face creams, serums, and lotions? Spend less by adding more vitamin C and E into your diet. Vitamin C is known for boosting your immune system and helping you battle colds. However, it also has anti-aging properties. This powerful vitamin has been found to prevent wrinkles and smooth out skin. Vitamin E on the other hand is all about moisture. This vitamin hydrates your skin, leaving it glowing, fresh, and totally unforgettable.

Grow Thicker, Shinier Hair With Vitamin B. As much as we want thick movie star hair, it doesn’t always happen. But it can! All you need is a healthy dose of vitamin B. This vitamin improves the overall health of your hair, prevents you from shedding excessively, and works to keep your hair nice and thick. Look for a vitamin B supplement or eat fruits and vegetables. They will give you all of the vitamin B you need for picture perfect hair.

Give your beauty a natural boost! These vitamins have been proven to improve the look of your hair, nails, and skin. Add them into your daily routine – and say hello to gorgeous from the inside out.
