Top Foods for Glowing Skin

When people think skin care, they think cleansers, toners and moisturizers. What is often dismissed is eating habits and how that plays a part in the health of the skin. What you eat can affect your skin and the way it looks in more ways than people are aware of. To achieve glowing, beautiful skin, it is more than what we apply on the face, that being said the products are the added booster to our skin that it needs.

Here are a list of foods that are a must have to help you get that glowing skin every girl wants.

Walnuts

Walnuts are full of nutrients that are essential to the skin, and a considerable aid in getting glowing skin. They are jam packed with omega 3 fatty acids. Omega fatty acids are essential to the skin, making the cell membranes stronger, helping the health of your skin by retaining the moisture in the skin and keeping your skin moisturized and smoother. 

Tomato

Tomato has four of the most powerful carotenoids, lycopene is the most powerful one of them all, like the red power ranger. It helps protect the skin from environmental factors that contribute to pore clogging and breakouts, and is anti-inflammatory and helps with UV ray protection. Now that doesn't mean that just eating tomatoes will be all the sun protection you need; you still need to apply sunscreen every day to help with the anti-ageing process.

Dark Chocolate

As if we need another reason to eat more chocolate! In this case, you do, dark chocolate (and by dark, we mean a minimum of 70% cocoa) can help boost your skins moisture levels which is amazing for your skin, leaving it supple and glowy, so eat up ladies!  For the sake of your waist, dark chocolate should be consumed in moderation of course!

Avocado

Also known as the superfruit ninja, avocado is jam-packed with monounsaturated fatty acids, which have been proven to hydrate and shield the skin from harmful UV rays. It helps maintain the skin's health, and healthy skin is glowing skin!
