Vitamin C is a multitasker in the skin. In the epidermis, where there is five times more vitamin C then in the deeper skin layers, it performs several functions. It helps prevent water loss and therefore maintains the skin's barrier function. It is involved in collagen and elastin building. And it deactivates the unstable free radicals before they can cause too much damage.
There is also increasing evidence that vitamin C shields the skin from the sun's burning rays, especially when it's applied in high concentrations or combined with vitamin E, sunscreens, and skin soothers.

protection from sun related aging, increased collagen synthesis, and faster wound healing. It is also an effective anti-inflammatory when applied before or after sun exposure.
vitamin c’s use for anti-aging centers on its ability to stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and neutralize free radical reactions. studies support that vitamin C can increase collagen production. collagen is the major building block, or scaffolding, of the skin. this stimulation helps reduce fine wrinkles and gives the skin a smoother, more even appearing complexion.

Vit C...u meant the dietary supplements or topical application? Both helps to brighten and whiten your skin because of the anti-oxidant properties. It makes your skin radiant and glowing.
Topical application mainly helps you to guard against free radicals(harmful sun rays and pollution) and best of all, slows down the aging process(even out fine lines) and so on.It promotes the growth of collagen also.if you apply religiously.
Dietary supplements is also good for the skin,as it improves immune systems, do good for the skin too as it helps to heal wounds faster.
