Taking care of your skin is a lot like going to the gym. You can't get fit by going 9 hours to the gym for one day and then forget about it. You have to workout consistently, day after day, to see the results.
Skincare works the same way. You cannot eat superfoods for two days and expect to wake up with a peaches and cream complexion. You have to consistently feed your body the skin superfoods that it needs to give you a glowing complexion.
Here are 7 things you should eat regularly if you want glowing skin.
1. Oranges
Oranges are a great source of Vitamin A, which helps manage fine lines and wrinkles and Vitamin C, which helps build collagen to keep your skin plump.
2. Salmon
Salmon is the king of skin superfoods. It is high in omega-3 fatty acids that help with wrinkle and acne prevention and collagen building. Toss some salmon in your salad or have it as a main dish 2-3 times a week.
3. Matcha
Green tea is SO last season. In 2017, it is all about Matcha - a finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea that originated in China. Matcha tea hydrates your skin which improves cell turnover.
4. Mushrooms
Mushrooms are a great source of Vitamin B which protects your skin from sun damage. Don't forget that SPF though!
5. Avocado
There is a reason that avocado is an ingredient in SO many face masks. Avocados contain high amounts of fibre, protein, magnesium, vitamin B6, E, K, biotin and Omega-9 fats. This means that avocados are not only good for your skin, but your hair and nails too.
6. Turmeric
Turmeric is high in curcuminoids- an antioxidant that helps with wrinkles and age spots. Sprinkle turmeric on a latte or mix it into dishes like scrambled eggs.
7. Sweet Potato
Sweet Potatoes are high in beta-carotene which help maintain healthy skin, hair, and teeth. Beta-carotene also provides you a natural tan, just don't go overboard.
