Eat your way to better skin
Dieting is about more than just your dress size. We all know that eating the wrong foods can cause spots, or even worse, wrinkles, so it makes sense that eating the good stuff can improve the condition of your skin.
And, as 67% of you told us you care more about your face than your body, we thought it was about time we reconsidered diets and what they should do for us. We called on the skincare experts the celebrities have on speed dial to find out exactly what you should be eating to get A-List skin.
Read what they told us here…
Oily Fish
If wrinkles are a concern, oily fish should be your new best friend. Mackerel, sardines and salmon are packed full of skin friendly Omega 3 fatty acids. These ‘will give you the healthiest skin ever and make it glow’ reveals Dr Perricone. Fatty acids improve the health of skin cells, ‘they form the outer walls of your cells, which keeps them and your skin plump’ says Emma Newman, Nude Skincare’s Biochemist/Project Coordinator.
If your skin is starting to lose its elasticity then it’s the fish skin that’s most important – we know it’s not the most appetising part, but ‘the flesh of fish, especially salmon, contains DMAE, a powerful antioxidant, which stimulates nerve function and muscles to contract and tighten the skin,’ explains Dr Perricone.
