TOP 5 FOODS FOR BEAUTIFUL SKIN

Recently, my skin condition was really bad. Probably due to lack of exercise and burning of midnight oil. I have really dry skin and they are peeling ):

So, while i start working on my skin , i might as well share with you guys how to have beautiful skin!



#1 Wholegrains
I didnt know wholegrains have so many benefits!
Well here it goes, they contain B vitamin biotin, which gives you a clear and moisturised skin.
(!) IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH BIOTIN, YOUR SKIN WILL BE DRY AND SCALY(EW!)

What's more..
It helps reduce the risk of diabetes and prevent the growth of acne.

So go get your wholemeal breads and buckwheat now!

#2 Are you nuts?!
Nuts have vitamin E in them and Vitamin E protects your skin from sun damage. It also locks in the moisture in your face , keeping your face young and soft.
Try almonds , or pistachios or maybe walnuts. Add 'em in your yoghurt or cereal !



#3 The Greens and The Reds
Yuck , some say. But they are really beneficial to your skin.
Vegetables contain Vitamin A ,beta-carotene.. and dietary fibre too!
If you want bright and smooth skin, you'll have to eat your veggies!

Vitamin A contains anti-oxidant, which prevents damage of the cell and premature aging , keeping your face looking fresh and young!





#4 Citrus fruits
Citrus fruits include oranges , lemons , grapefruits and many more! ( Google for it)
They are RICH IN VITAMIN C that gives you a smooth and taut skin.
Do you know that Vitamin C is one of the prime ingredient in your beauty creams? (Yups, cool eh?)




#5 Seafood
Seafood contains omega-3 fatty acids and zinc, which gives you smooth , glowing skin!
Isnt that all we ever wanted?
Zinc helps treat our acne while omega-3 can reduce dryness ( just what i needed).


Hope it helps and please click on my nuffnang!
