Tips For Beautiful and Young Skin


There are thousands of skin and beauty care products that promise to give you clear and glowing skin. Instead of relying on these products, you can try some simple and easy home remedies to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin Every woman wants picture-perfect, flawless skin. Clear and beautiful skin is one of the main elements of a person’s beauty. Healthy skin helps you feel beautiful as well. 

What you eat determines how firm, radiant and ageless your skin is. Eat the wrong food and you will end up with lined, pigmented and sagging skin. Eat the right food and you will have clear, luminous and soft skin.Food can also act as a sun protector, enhancing your sunscreen. Conversely, if you've forgotten to apply sunscreen, food can provide some natural sun protection. On my last beach vacation, I inadvertently applied moisturizer instead of sunscreen, and after spending seven hours in the sun, suns-screen, I only ended up with a pink face, which disappeared after 12 hours. Had I not been eating these sun-protecting foods, I would have done significantly more damage to my skin.

Here are five of the best foods to eat to provide natural, healthy sun protection.

  1. Olives and Olive oil;You need to eat  to get the skin-protecting benefit. Heirloom tomatoes have more lycopene than conventional tomatoes.
  2. Watermelon; Another great source of lycopene, you need about three cups of watermelon for it to be effective. Eat watermelon as a delicious summer snack with fresh mint and a squeeze of lime.
  3. Bell peppers; Bell peppers contain the antioxidant campsite  which decreases UVB-induced skin damage and inhibits inflammation from sun exposure. Toss raw bell peppers into a spinach salad. You need a whole bell pepper for it to be effective.
  4. Pomegranate; The pomegranate seeds protect the skin from both UVA and UVB free radicals. They can enhance the sun protection factor of sunscreen by up to 25% and also inhibit hyper-pigmentation. Snack on the seeds or toss them into a watercress salad. Pomegranate juice is an easy way to get the antioxidants, but without the seeds, there's no fiber and the juice converts too quickly to sugar leading to glaciation and aging.
  5. Wild salmon; This fish is rich in omega-3 fats, which inhibit inflammation from UVB rays by up to 52%. They also block the release of UV-induced enzymes that eat away at collagen, causing lines and sagging. Enjoy the wild salmon or poached over microgreens.
