Feed your way to beautiful skin

An important way to brighten up your complexion is through your choice of food. Healthy food choices can change your skin from drab to fab with only a few (minor’ish) adjustments. In this blog, we will take a look at which foods will make your skin look gorgeous and how you can improve both smoothness and tone. Seafood Don’t worry, no one is suggesting you whack a fresh piece of cod onto your face as some sort of bizarre face mask, but by eating fish, including wonder seafood such as oysters and salmon, you can work miracles on your skin from the inside out. Rich in zinc and omega 3, these fatty acids are capable of reducing inflammation and dryness. Omega 3 keeps the arteries in the body clear providing good circulation, which is key for good skin health. So next time you’re shopping, head to the seafood counter. Eggs It doesn’t matter whether it’s the yolk or the egg white, both contain important vitamins your skin is crying out for. Egg yolks contain Vitamin A, which is vital for skin repair, whilst egg whites contain 40 different proteins and water containing properties which keep the skin firm and tight, preventing fine lines and wrinkles. Whichever way you like your eggs in the morning, your skin will like them too. Citrus fruits Lemons and oranges – rich in Vitamin C and pivotal in the production of collagen.

An important way to brighten up your complexion is through your choice of food. Healthy food choices can change your skin from drab to fab with only a few (minor’ish) adjustments. In this blog, we will take a look at which foods will make your skin look gorgeous and how you can improve both smoothness and tone.

Seafood

Don’t worry, no one is suggesting you whack a fresh piece of cod onto your face as some sort of bizarre face mask, but by eating fish, including wonder seafood such as oysters and salmon, you can work miracles on your skin from the inside out. Rich in zinc and omega 3, these fatty acids are capable of reducing inflammation and dryness. Omega 3 keeps the arteries in the body clear providing good circulation, which is key for good skin health. So next time you’re shopping, head to the seafood counter.

Eggs

It doesn’t matter whether it’s the yolk or the egg white, both contain important vitamins your skin is crying out for. Egg yolks contain Vitamin A, which is vital for skin repair, whilst egg whites contain 40 different proteins and water containing properties which keep the skin firm and tight, preventing fine lines and wrinkles. Whichever way you like your eggs in the morning, your skin will like them too.

Citrus fruits

Lemons and oranges – rich in Vitamin C and pivotal in the production of collagen. Collagen keeps the skin looking tight and prevents wrinkles. Try eating plenty of citrus fruits coupled with a SkinBase Facial ™, a luxury microdermabrasion treatment that promotes collagen production by gently firing a fine stream of crystals across the face. Fine lines, acne and scarring, pigmentation and dull and tired skin will all soon be a thing of the past.

Green vegetables

The skin is the largest organ of the body –  if something is good for your body, it is good for you skin. Eat orange-red vegetables such as carrots and sweet potatoes, they are rich in beta-carotene which prevents cell damage and premature ageing. Leafy green vegetables, such as spinach are great sources of Vitamin A, which reduces red skin tone leaving the skin looking full of colour.

Goats milk

Whilst maybe not the obvious choice amongst the array of food in a supermarket, goat’s milk contains lactic acid, which acts as a natural exfoliant, as well as vitamins A and E. Here is the science – the lactic acid helps to reduce the PH of the skin, which balances the alkalinity of the skin making it easier to absorb all the nutrients.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
