Your skin takes a beating every day. Pollution, UV rays, stress, lack of sleep - day after day, your skin is bombarded with factors that produce free radicals. These free radicals damage skin cells, break down collagen and accelerate aging. The result? A dull, tired complexion that looks older than it needs to.
The solution? Antioxidants. They neutralize free radicals before they can cause damage. And the best part: you don't need to spend a fortune. In this article, we compare the best antioxidant skincare products at Belgian online pharmacies - with price differences of over €40 for the exact same product.
What do antioxidants do for your skin?
Antioxidants are molecules that neutralize free radicals. In skincare, they're your first line of defense against premature aging, pigmentation spots, dull skin and inflammation.
The most effective antioxidants in skincare are vitamin C, retinol (vitamin A), niacinamide (vitamin B3), and vitamin E.
