Diet for Glowing Skin

Often times women spend lots of time and money trying to find the perfect product to fix skin issues they may be experiencing. Whether it is acne, dry skin, or wrinkles, your diet is one of the biggest contributing factors to getting glowing skin. This is easier said than done with a fast food restaurant on every corner. Start small (even with one meal a day) and focus on adding in healthy foods as much as possible.

Some of our favorite healthy foods for glowing skin are avocados, carrots, walnuts, salmon, and sunflower seeds. Giving your body proper nutrition and minerals will go a long way in helping your skin repair itself and stay firm. Steer clear of greasy, oily food as much as possible. You can learn more about what each of these foods does for your skin Health Plus & Allure.

Glowing Skin Comes From Hydration

Never leave home without your water bottle! Along with diet, water intake is an important piece of helping your skin to glow. Women should drink approximately 2.7 liters or 11 cups of water each day! Making this a priority will help your kidneys and liver detox and improve blood circulation. Water intake will also help with the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

We love our BKR water bottles! This woman-owned company believes in beauty from the inside out, which is why they created their multi-size glass water bottles. Not only is this better for the environment, but a pretty way to remember to drink water throughout the day!

Sweat it Out!

Believe it or not, sweating is one of the best things you can do to help your skin! Skin is the biggest organ in our body. When we sweat it helps our pores eliminate any bacteria on the skin. While it may feel gross at the time, sweating and exercise will reverse signs of aging and help your skin rejuvenate. You can find out more here.

The Products Your Use Matter

Having a skin care regiment is very important to pair with these lifestyle habits. We often look for a quick fix in the products we buy, but our wallets and bodies will thank us later if we pair the two together. If you are looking to get glowing skin, start first by changing your habit, and pair it with products that work well with your skin.

Here at Boston Beauty Network, we love to recommend products we trust and love. Pay close attention to the ingredients in your products and make conscious decisions about what you put on your skin. You do not need 20 different products each day to get glowing skin. During the summer months, it is important to wear sunscreen to protect your skin. We take a deep dive into the different types of sunscreens we love here.

Starting to make these lifestyle changes will make a big difference in the look and feel of your skin! If you have a wedding or special event coming up, these are great things to do beforehand. A healthy diet, plenty of water, exercise, and a simple skin care regimen will keep your skin and hair looking amazing!
