7. Yellow and Orange Root Veggies

Want a naturally beautiful glow? Put more beta-carotene on your plate! These foods are loaded with super antioxidants that are good for both your skin and your eyes. Yellow and orange root vegetables will do that for you naturally. The best choices are sweet potatoes, pumpkins, squash, and carrots. Read more about benefits of carrots.

 

8. Nuts

Nuts are a great way to get some healthy fats. The omega -3s in nuts are super good for your skin and some nuts, such as almonds, also contain vitamin E. This will have an anti-inflammatory affect that will help with skin problems like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. Although walnuts contain the most omega-3, all nuts including peanuts, hazelnuts, almonds, and pistachios are excellent for your skin and your health. Don’t overdo it, however, as they are also high in calories. Instead of a bag of chips or a cookie, grab a handful of mixed nuts every afternoon for super smooth skin that you can see in just a few weeks.

    Plain yogurt massaged gently into a scar for a minute or two will remove it in an amazing short period of time. Use plain yogurt with a white French clay to make a facial mask will gently exfoliate and leave your skin glowing. Be careful the natural acid if left too long on your skin will cause irritation so always rinse away thoroughly with room temperature to cool water which will close your pores.
