What It Does
Kiwi is rich in antioxidants such as vitamin C and E, that protect skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors. It also hydrates and firms the skin and reduces redness.
Why It Works
Kiwi is high in vitamin C, which enhances barrier lipids in the skin, preventing water loss in the skin. The high vitamin C content also increases collagen production, plumping skin. Kiwi contains folate, which speeds up the cell turnover process, and firms the skin.
