If you are taking an MSM supplement to help get rid of your melasma, then here are a few skin facts you need to know:

1. If you take MSM with a vitamin C supplement, your body will absorb the minerals better.

2. Some say MSM helped to completely eliminate their dark spots. Some also say that after they stopped taking MSM their melasma returned.

3. MSM is essentially sulfur, so don’t expect these pills taste good.

4. Start by taking a small dosage every day and work your way up. Expect some stomach discomfort at first, but if anything persists definitely stop taking MSM and talk to your doctor.

Did you know that the more deep sleep you get each night, the longer you’ll keep your youthful looks?

This is because when you are in REM sleep your body produces human growth hormone, which aids in cell growth.

Human growth hormone does a number of great things for the body including weight management and maintaining strong bones. So with a good night’s sleep every night, not only will you have a slimmer waistline, but you’ll also have fitter skin.

Maybe that’s why they call it beauty sleep?
