Generally speaking I agree with you regarding the nutrition but isn't like that your glucose level in blood are quite stable except some time after eating so it should not really mess with your vitamin C? Also not eating carbs raise cortisol to it also affects badly on your collage production.Sugar in excess consumption quite literally rapes your skin. Glucose molecules structurally are very similar to ascorbic acid (vitamin C).

Humans are special in the sense that unlike most animals, we cannot synthetize our own vitamin C, so we have to rely on dietary sources to intake it. Ascorbic acid, paired with the amino acid glycine is used in our body to produce collagen.
Dietary glucose (sugar) and vitamin C compete in absorption. The more sugar you eat, the less vitamin C get absorpted and the worse your collagen synthesis is.
Excess sugar intake leads to premature aging as it ruins your collagen production. This should be trivial on a looksmaxxing site, but apparently it’s not
I think this is more complicated to give strict answer if eating carbs is bad for you or not (not even mention genetics and shit).
And whats about fruits and fructose? Fructose don't even raise sugar level in blood so it should not supress collagen production.
