If you’ve ever been to a dermatologist or spoken with a beauty and skincare enthusiast, then you’ve probably heard that Vitamin C is one of the key beauty ingredients that are good for the skin. You can find this essential vitamin in various fruits and vegetables, including oranges, strawberries, kale, spinach, and so on.
