Is your skin prone to acne breakouts? Is it looking dull and lacking the healthy vibrance it once had? If you are longing to get your healthy glow back and feel more confident about the way you look, you may want to keep reading! The solution could be as simple as using products that are infused with vitamin D3 and other natural ingredients.
Our skin starts to age the day we are born, and if we don’t take care of it early, we’ll see the ill effects later on: fine lines, wrinkles, redness, discoloration, puffiness and more.
This article will explain in detail how and why vitamin D3 is essential to healthy looking skin, and how Tina•K products can help get your healthy glow on!
About Tina
Tina’s skin care adventure started when she was just 11 years old. Riddled with acne, she went on a quest to find natural skin care solutions that would not only clear her skin, but boost her confidence and self- esteem. She didn’t want to resort to harsh medications with a long list of side effects to deal with her acne. Her quest led her to the discovery of the facialist – the secret weapon that Tina says kickstarted her skin care regime and transformed her acne prone skin into beautiful healthy, clear skin.
Since then, Tina has turned her passion into a business and now helps thousands of other women achieve the flawless complexion they’ve always dreamed of.
With her mother as her business partner, Tina scoured LA to find the perfect location – and she found her dream spot on Ventura Blvd – and Tina•K Skin Spa was born! At only 20 years old, Tina made her dreams come true.
Once she had her spa up and running, Tina embarked on another passion – developing a line of skin care. In her research phase, she happened to come across an article about vitamin D3 deficiency. This produced a torrent of ideas and theories in Tina’s mind: what if her clients’ skin problems were caused by a vitamin D3 deficiency? How can we get enough vitamin D3 when we’re all hiding from the sun?
After more research, trial and error, and sheer grit, Tina formulated a skincare solution that combats vitamin D3 deficiency., while nourishing and rejuvenating the skin. She patented two ingredients called ReflecT•K, which protects the skin from the sun. It reflects damaging light and transforms it into red light, which tones and tightens skin.
The secret? Transdermal vitamin D3. Since that time, she’s had many awestruck and excited clients who have seen transformative changes in their skin.
Today, Tina has been expanding her brand, Tina•K and sparking conversations worldwide about vitamin D3 deficiency and its effects on the skin. Visit her website to read the many blogs and skincare regime tips. You can also follow her on Facebook and Instagram (@tinaskin).
What is Vitamin D3?
Vitamin D, also known as the sunshine vitamin, is vital for skin health. Our bodies make vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and it is actually the only vitamin that the body can manufacture on its own. Many people are deficient in vitamin D because they don’t get enough sunlight, especially in the winter, and in areas of the globe that have 6 months of darkness in winter, such as the Northwest Territories, Canada.
Experts predict that approximately half the global population is vitamin D deficient – in fact, it’s considered a global pandemic!
Vitamin D is also found in certain foods and supplements. Some sources include:
Vitamin D also helps maintain a protective barrier against skin damage and premature aging, as well as stimulates antioxidant defenses to fight free radicals, which are harmful to the body, both inside and out. In short, vitamin D will help your skin look younger, brighter and softer!
Vitamin D is made up of two ‘sub’ vitamins: vitamins D2 and D3. Essentially, they are not differentiated, and are both referred to as ‘vitamin D’; however, there is a specific distinction. Without getting too technical or ‘sciency’, here’s a quick rundown:
Vitamin D3 is what the body manufactures when exposed to sunlight, and is contained in certain foods, as mentioned above. Vitamin D2 cannot be manufactured by the body. It mainly comes from plant sources, such as wild mushrooms. Vitamin D2 is formed when these plants are exposed to sunlight.

Inspired by an ancient Persian beauty remedy called Sefidab, this cleanser will not just clean your skin, but will exfoliate and smooth your skin. The kaolin clay is oil absorbing and works to regulate sebum, while the rice gently sloughs away dead skin cells and the jade rice soothes the skin.
