And they may actually reverse some of the discoloration and wrinkles associated with aging. These antioxidants work by speeding up the skin’s natural repair systems and by directly inhibiting further damage, says Karen E. Burke, MD, PhD, of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine’s department of dermatology. Burke recommends taking supplements containing 1,000 to 3,000 milligrams of vitamin C, 400 international units of vitamin E (in the D-alpha-tocopherol form), and 100-200 micrograms of selenium (l-selenomethionine) to gain the most benefit. (Don’t give selenium to children until they have all of their adult teeth because it can interfere with the proper formation of tooth enamel.)

A study published in the journal Biofactors found that applying coenzyme Q10 to the skin helped minimize the appearance of wrinkles.

Do’s and don’ts for DIY skin care
But they come with a risk. “You have to be careful with the egg white mask because egg whites sometimes have salmonella, and if you end up ingesting it by accident, you can actually get salmonella,” she said. “So these days, unless you know the source of the eggs, I would be very careful with that one.” Spices If a DIY facial scrub recipe calls for cinnamon, use it at your own risk, Day said. “I think that would be irritating. You wouldn’t get enough of a concentration of cinnamon and you can probably even get blisters,” she said.
