Long treasured for its immune-boosting qualities, and more recently for its use as a weight-loss aid, copper is now in the spotlight for its beautifying properties.
The mineral has ‘dual benefits’ for the skin, according to Kelly Saynor, founder of Renew Medical Aesthetics, including ‘deceleration of cell damage and the promotion of skin renewal’. This makes it ideal for the changing seasons, when you are still trying to protect your skin from the sun, but also wanting to fortify it for the autumn weather to come, which tends to dry out your skin.
