An apple a day keeps the doctor away… and maybe the dermatologist, too! Apples contain malic acid which help exfoliate and brighten your skin, so consider using apple juice or skins in a DIY face scrub or mask.
Cruciferous Vegetables
Broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts are all high in Vitamin C and other antioxidants, which help to maintain healthy skin. These veggies help with collagen production and keep skin looking elastic.
Citrus Fruits
Grapefruit, oranges, and other citrus fruits are also high in Vitamin C, which helps skin to feel hydrated, bouncy and youthful. Oranges contain beta carotene, great for repairing sun damage and can make skin look refreshed.
Papaya
Papaya contains papain, an enzyme that helps digestion and encourages new cell growth, so eat a slice of ripe papaya every day to keep your skin looking fresh and radiant. For an extra kick, using papaya in DIY scrubs and masks helps to break down dead cells on the surface of the skin.
Carrots & Tomatoes
Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which means they’re not only great for your eyes, but they’re beneficial for keeping skin looking young and fresh. Tomatoes are high in lycopene, which is great for protecting the skin from the sun’s UV rays. Add this pair to your diet and your skin will surely thank you!
Water
Okay, so it’s not a fruit or a vegetable, but in addition to eating the right foods you need to drink plenty of water every day! Dehydration can lead to dry and dull skin.
