Today, our dear WowSkin Girls, we will have a blog dedicated to foods that can improve our skin. 

Not always, healthy skin is developed at the genetic level, you can start to have a beautiful skin at any age through a specific diet to which you add the appropriate hydration. Let me explain, it is not always enough to use makeup remover, face cream or cosmetic masks to get a beautiful complexion, but above them the important factor is what you eat and drink.

Before you present the top 10 foods you should eat for your skin, it is interesting to remind you that the skin that will always be rich in a consumption of fruits, vegetables, fish, green tea, will be younger than a body that consumes sugar, white flour and harmful fats.

1. OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS: Hemp, flax, or algae oil are the richest products when it comes to omega-3 fatty acids. They keep the skin thick, supple and hydrated, reduce inflammation, redness and the appearance of acne. By consuming such products, you will notice huge changes in your skin. Fatty fish is among the products richest in omega-3 fatty acids, examples of such fish being salmon, mackerel, and herring, which are excellent foods for a radiant woman.

2. BELL PEPPER: Regardless of whether we refer to red or yellow bell pepper, both variants are a source of beta-carotene that the body develops into vitamin A. Bell peppers are the best sources of vitamin C, which gives the skin a firm and strong tent. An American study shows that women who consistently consumed vitamin C have a reduced risk of wrinkled and dry skin as they age.

3. AVOCADO: This food is very rich in healthy fats that are excellent for the skin, avocado helps you keep your skin flexible and hydrated, it is a vital source of vitamin E and its role is to protect the skin from oxidative damage, besides reduction of damage caused by UV rays and signs of aging. 

4. SWEET POTATOES: Like spinach, sweet potatoes are a rich source of beta-carotene, in other words beta-carotene is provitamin A which is transformed in your body into vitamin A, it helps as a shield for the health of your skin.

5. DARK CHOCOLATE: If you want something extra for your skin care, then I recommend consuming dark chocolate, as cocoa powder is rich in antioxidants that will help you get a thicker and more hydrated skin, it helps to improve circulation more generously the blood, making the skin less rough and scaly, and the best reason for consuming dark chocolate is that it minimizes the sugar in its concentration. 

6. TOMATOES: Rich source of vitamin C, contains carotenoids, including lycopene. Lycopene together with lutein from tomatoes help the skin against damage caused by the sun and at the same time prevent wrinkles.

7. PAPAYA: The fruit, which is rich in vitamin A and C, helps you with digestion. It is known for its effects in reducing wrinkles, but it is also a very good ingredient if you are a fan of homemade exfoliants. It may also contain antioxidants that are essential for healthy and smooth skin.

8. ORANGES: Like tomatoes, oranges are very rich in vitamin C, which is necessary for protection against sun damage at the epidermal level, where it fights free radicals produced by UV rays. Also, vitamin C has the role of producing and maintaining collagen, the protein that gives the skin a basic structure and full of volume, a useful fruit especially if you want to slow down the production of wrinkles or premature aging.

9. SPINACH AND OTHER GREEN VEGETABLES: Spinach along with green vegetables such as lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, arugula must be eaten several times a week because vitamin C supports skin health. For example, in addition to vitamin C, broccoli is rich in vitamin A and zinc. Sulfurate from broccoli, for example, has a ptorector role for the skin against damage caused by sunlight and helps to maintain the collagen in the skin. And the nutrients in lettuce help synthesize collagen, slowing down the appearance of wrinkles.

10. OYSTERS: They contain a large quantity of zinc and minerals, which help the immune system, oysters are a rich source of vitamins A, C, E. Protecting the skin against free radicals. It is known that 100 grams of oysters contain 72 calories.
