How Vitamin B12 Works - Made Simple

1. Calms Redness & Visible Irritation
Vitamin B12 helps settle the signs of inflammation by modulating inflammatory pathways for a calmer less stressed skin.

2. Strengthens the Barrier
By supporting lipid production and barrier function, Vitamin B12 helps reduce moisture loss and protect against external aggressors.

3. Supports Cellular Energy
Vitamin B12 plays a key role in energy processes within the skin, helping optimise skin renewal for smoother, healthier functioning skin.

4. Microbiome Harmony
A well-supported barrier helps maintain a balanced microbiome. Vitamin B12 contributes to a more balanced and strong microbiome helping reduce flare-ups associated with inflammation and stress.

5. Comforts Stressed & Post-Procedure Skins
