Have you ever noticed how people who eat healthily always have a certain glow about them? It might be because they are feeding their bodies with beauty nutrients that we, ordinary people, might be missing out on.
If you’ve done topical treatments, but you’re not quite getting the result that you desire, perhaps it’s time to try ingesting the nutrients, instead of applying them externally.
Feed your beauty from the inside out
Berries
Berries are known for their high levels of antioxidants, which reduce inflammation and allow the skin to repair itself. It also creates a barrier that prevents the skin from further damage. Antioxidants are also great for correcting the signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles.
Apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is not just great for weight loss and bloating, but it also helps to cleanse the skin from the inside out by making the body more alkaline. Simply mix a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water on an empty stomach and watch it work its magic.
Hydrating foods
If you’re not getting enough water, there’s no way you’ll get the desired outcome of healthy-looking skin. Hydrated skin is naturally plump-looking and clear of blemishes. Fruit and veggies like watermelon, cucumber, tomatoes and radishes are super hydrating, helping your body not only cleanse and flush out toxins but also replenish lost fluids.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is known to help with hyperpigmentation and even out the skin tone, leaving you with blemish-free skin. It also helps to reduce redness caused by acne or rosacea.
