Did you know that fruit can greatly benefit not only your health, but also your skin? In regards to health, fresh peaches, plums and nectarines from California contain no fat. They are also sodium-free and cholesterol-free. These attributes make them welcome additions to a heart-healthy lifestyle. All three fruits are good sources of vitamin C and contain other important vitamins and minerals, including potassium and vitamin A. Each provides beneficial fiber and healthy carbohydrates.
Tomato: Yes, tomato is a fruit! The juice of tomato is nutritional gold. But have you tried tomato-based face masks to tighten and brighten skin? You should. Tomatoes can reduce blemishes and blackheads. They even out skin tone, and shrink pores. Mix tomato pulp with a little oatmeal, and you have an exfoliating mask. Mix lemon juice with tomato pulp, and you have a cleansing mask. What can be easier—and more effective?!
Strawberries: the antioxdiant power of strawberries helps you defy age. The beautiful berry supports connective tissue, healing the skin from within. Crush 8 to 10 strawberries into a pulp, and mix with 1 tbsp of yogurt. Apply this delicious mask on your face, and wash off after a good 20 minutes. Your skin will feel wonderfully soft and radiant.
