Learn everything you need to know about these powerful ingredients -- once and for all
The truth about ingesting vs. applying antioxidants "When you're talking about nutricosmetics, people think they're replacing a topical product or regimen, but that isn't the case," says Simpson. "When you're applying [the antioxidant] topically, you're putting it on the acute area. When you're taking an ingestible, that's going to go through the body, and works systemically."
