We believe that skincare starts from within so we created a 5 ingredient grocery list that will have you glowin’ like a crispy creme donut
5 Beauty foods to add to your grocery list
In an era where 20 step skincare routines are in vogue, it’s easy to believe that expensive creams and serums will suffice to give you the glow you’ve always dreamed of. But scientists and dermatologists alike, argue that nutrition plays a very important role on the outcome of your skin’s texture and your overall complexion. Therefore, the food you put into your body is key when it comes to “skincare”. To make your life a little bit easier, Tasteful Chronicles compiled a mini grocery shopping list that will have you looking and feeling your best.
Salmon
Salmon is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acid which is very important to keep the skin thick, supple, and moisturized. Omega-3 fats also reduces inflammation which can cause redness and acne.
Sunflower Seeds
Sunflower seeds are packed with nutrients such as Vitamin E, a very important antioxidant for the skin.
Red or Yellow Bell Peppers
Bell peppers contain tons of beta carotene and vitamin C - two important antioxidants for the skin. Vitamin C also helps boost collagen production, a protein that helps keep your skin tight and strong.
Water
While you shouldn’t have to pay for water, having a reusable water bottle at your disposal will make it easier for you to stay hydrated. H20 is the key to dewy skin as drinking lots of water helps eliminate and flush the toxins out of your body. We love the BKR glass water bottles, they help keep your water fresh and come in all sorts of shades to add a pop of color into your daily.
Green Tea
Green Tea helps protect your skin from sun damage and aging. The catechins in green tea are strong antioxidants that improve the skin’s hydration, reduces inflammation and improves the skin’s thickness and elasticity.
