Summary
Vitamins, apart from their applications in therapeutics and healthy nourishment, are also important ingredients of many cosmetics. Through them, they exert various active impacts on the skin, hair and nails, giving them a healthy appearance, preventing the occurrence of cosmetic defects and facilitating their eradication. This applies especially to vitamins B3, B5, C, A, D and E. They are contained in preparations for external, and internal use (nutricosmetics). However, in order to rationally use the valuable properties of vitamins in practice, you must have the necessary knowledge, which is often difficult to access. This article has been developed as an aid to cosmetologists in this regard.

Key words: vitamins, care cosmetics, healing cosmetics, nutricosmetics
