Vitamin C. Vitamin C is one vitamin that helps to retain your skin's elasticity. This vitamin, also called ascorbic acid, helps to boost the production of a protein called collagen within your skin. Collagen helps to maintain your skin's strength, and provides a supportive framework around which your skin cells can grow.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals. Vitamin E helps the skin produce elastin and collagen fibers. These fibers are important in repairing skin tears and other damages, including stretch marks, by restructuring the skin cells. In addition, Vitamin E helps the skin capture and retain higher amounts of moisture which prevents skin dryness.
