Are you tired of all the beauty products being advertised to you when you search for great skin tips? Are you tired of reading about lotions, moisturizers, sun blocks, bronzers, skin-firming creams and all those boo-hoos? If so, you're viewing the right page. Here, you won't get a rundown of beauty tips that encourage rituals and require you to topically apply stuff on your skin. Rather, what you'll find here is a list of edibles that will not only calm your hunger pangs but will also help you achieve great-looking skin. • Vitamin A-Rich Food. Show yourself some loving and for a while, don't even think of rigid dieting. Say “Yum! Yum!” and “Goodbye, acne!” as you ingest some of the following top sources of vitamin A: mozzarella cheese, carrots, cantaloupes, sweet potatoes and egg yolks. Aside from its more popular reputation of being the original and natural eye candy, vitamin A is the magic ingredient that strengthens the skin, speeds up the recovery of broken tissue and minimizes oiliness. While vitamin A is generally good, it isn't eating-friendly to pregnant people. If you're in your baby-bumping months, consult your doctor before taking in any vitamin A-rich food. • Vitamin C-Rich Food. Observe the cosmetics shop around you and ask yourself what you find common in most of the cleansers and cosmetic themes. Here's what you'll notice: a splash of summery and fruity colors here and there. Aside from the quite commonplace excuse that summer is in, most of the cleansers contain fruit ingredients that are rich in vitamin C: kiwi fruit, guava, orange, lemon and melon (no pun intended). For once, quit dabbing these cleansers on your skin and give your taste buds a real treat instead. Eat vitamin C-rich fruits and say goodbye to scurvy. Aside from fortifying your immune system against colds and other viruses, Vitamin C minimizes the toll of stress and pollution on your skin, keeping your skin strong and elastic. • Vitamin E-Rich Food. If you're nuts about nuts, you'll relish eating a whole load because these finger foods are not only crunchy but also rich in vitamin E: almonds, hazelnuts and peanuts. If you're the strict omnivore type who needs to eat full meals, try munching ground beef, broccoli, blueberries and avocados with your favorite source of carbohydrates. A popular ingredient in many beauty products, Vitamin E slows down skin aging and serves as an all-natural source of sunblock. Think of it as your skin's vigilant bouncer against ultraviolet rays. • Supplements. A C E isn't quite hard to remember. However, if you're too lazy to bother checking which food is rich with what vitamin and if all the more you're not in the mood to do some food shopping, do not despair. See your doctor and ask which supplement is best for you. Take advantage of the conveniences technology has to offer. All the skin vitamins you want to take in may just be in that tiny gel capsule that's just one gulp closer to great-looking skin. |
