By Kristen CobbMoisturizer in a Pill The effect of oral supplements on the skin is the subject of debate, but one formulation now has proven benefits. At the San Galicano Dermatological Institute in Rome, scientists who had no financial ties to the product gave 16 women a pill of vegetable ceramides, amino acids, fish cartilage, anti-oxidants, and essential fatty acids (available | in the United States in early 2007 as Santica Beauty Recipes Deep Skin Hydrating) and limited their skin care routine to cleansing only. After 40 days, measurements showed increased suppleness and hydration, but not in 16 other women who had taken a soybean-oil pill. A moisturizer would deliver similar results, reseacher Enzo Berardesca says, but only where it's applied, "whereas the supplement works all over the body."
