Vitamin D is the new favorite ingredient for summer, and our founder is here to answer your questions about why Vitamin D is so important this time of year.

Do I need Vitamin D in the summer?

Vitamin D is important year around. With over 50% of the global population being D deficient, not even summer sun exposure may be enough if you enter the season with deficiency.

Why apply Vitamin D serum to our skin?

What does Vitamin D have to do with skin? Skin is the organ that makes Vitamin D. Your skin needs Vitamin D present for Vitamin D to be made when exposed to light and for skin immune function. Applying Vitamin D topically helps improve hydration, skin tone, collagen for volume, environmental protection and chronic conditions like eczema, breakouts, and rosacea.
