On Your Way To Radiant Skin
What woman doesn’t want beautifully smooth and radiant skin? Most of us have cabinets filled with skin care products from department and drug stores, but what about the produce aisle? The best skin care products out there are the ones we eat. We have become skilled at covering our blemishes with make-up, but why not work at preventing the blemishes with skin nutrition instead?
Here are some of my favorite skin beautifiers:
• Avocado: Contains beneficial essential oils as well as B-complex vitamins that nourish the skin.
• Cucumber: Super hydrator that is rich in silica, an enzyme that enhances complexion.
• Papaya: Contains vitamin A and a high concentration of collagen healing vitamin C.
• Almonds: Loaded with skin protecting vitamin E which helps prevent sun damage.
• Watermelon: High in skin protecting lycopene and a super hydrating and cooling fruit.
• Cooked Tomatoes: When tomatoes are cooked, lycopene is released. Lycopene helps eliminate skin-aging free radical damage caused by ultra-violet rays.
• Flax Seeds: High in omega-3 fatty acids, which help to reduce the appearance of sun spots and smooth fine lines.
• Acerola Cherries: Packed with antioxidants and vitamin C that promotes collagen production.
• Sweet Potatoes: The vitamin C in sweet potatoes helps smooth out wrinkles by stimulating the production of collagen.
Papaya Smoothie
½ cup cubed fresh papaya
¼ cup fresh pineapple chunks
¼ cup fresh or frozen cherries
1 ripe banana
½ cup organic almond milk
3-4 ice cubes
Blend and enjoy!
Bonus Beauty Tip:
Use a not-quite ripe papaya because it contains more of the skin enhancing enzyme, papain. Rub your face with a piece of papaya and let the fruit soak in for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water and your skin will look and feel smooth and vibrant.
