Today's beauty products mainly focus on nourishing skin from the
inside out. However, there are ways you can reduce wrinkles, fight acne
and improve your skin's overall appearance with your diet! These foods
deliver an array of nutrients that will help you achieve youthful and
glowing skin for a fraction of the price of store bought cleansers,
creams and serums.
1. There's a reason why
oranges are often used in beauty products. They are packed with
antioxidants that the fight free radicals which cause skin to age. The
Vitamin C in oranges aids in the creation of collagen which helps skin
to maintain its firm appearance.
2. Olive oil
reduces inflammation in skin and when applied topically can help with
such skin conditions as eczema. It also protects skin from free radicals
that speed up the aging process. A recent study by the American Journal
of Nutrition confirmed that olive oil may actually help you lose weight
because it makes you feel full. What a bonus!
3.
Pomegranates protect the outer layer of skin and also help with skin
cell regeneration, tissue repair and wound healing. It has also been
found to reduce hyperpigmentation and age spots. Pomegranates are also
free radical fighters that contain compounds which prevents wrinkles.
4.
The nutrients found in blueberries have been found to normalize oil
levels in skin and reduce acne. The antioxidant cocktail in this fruit
