Healthy Habit 3 – Eat a rainbow diet

Healthy Habit 3 – Eat a diet as colourful as the rainbow. Make your diet as colourful as possible. If you’ve got all the colours of the rainbow you’ve nailed it! Fruit and vegetables are packed wth vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, the more colours the more varied the goodness your body is receiving. Here are some of our favourite (and inexpensive) rainbow foods for achieving glowing skin: Tomatoes This humble fruit packs a punch when it comes to nutrients and goodness. Tomatoes contain lycopene which helps to eliminate skin ageing free radicals and protects against UV rays. Carrots Good old carrots. Full of nutrients, they provide the best health benefits to our skin in the form of beta-carotene which is converted to vitamin A by the body. Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant and is important for tissue growth and repair. Broccoli Great for sun damaged skin. Broccoli contains Glucoraphanin which is converted to sulforaphane which supports the skin’s ability to detoxify and helps stimulate the production of enzymes which protect the body against sun damage. Broccoli is also full of beta-carotene and Vitamin C too. These are just a few examples, most fruit and vegetables have excellent skin and health benefits so tuck in and remember to keep it colourful. Don’t forget to follow our first two rules; drink plenty of water and get more sleep. We’ll be bringing you another great healthy habit next week. Until then make your habits healthy!

Hayami Cosmetics

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.”
