We’re deep into spring and approaching summer - let’s take advantage of the best of June’s harvest to give us gorgeous skin from the inside out! Here are my top ten picks that you can pick up fresh in the month of June:
avocados: high in healthy fats & vitamin E, both of which provide the building blocks for healthy, hydrated skin
apricots: rich in vitamin C and beta carotene, apricots help protect your skin from UV damage and sunburn
asparagus: packed with vitamin K, which can help with dark circles under the eyes, soothing inflammation, and increasing skin elasticity
peas: high in niacin, peas help ward off acne, relieve rosacea and skin redness, and leave your skin feeling moisturized
kale, chard, & lettuce: loaded with vitamin K, a potent circulation booster, and zinc, which may reduce inflammation and acne, and zeaxanthin, a powerhouse antioxidant that evens skin tone and provides protection to the skin
cucumbers: put a few slices over your eyes and eat the rest! Vitamin C and caffeic acid fight inflammation in the gut and deliver glowing results on the skin
carrots: the beta carotene in carrots gets converted into vitamin A inside the body, helping to repair skin cells
blueberries & strawberries: these berries are high in antioxidants and rich in vitamin C, a collagen building, wrinkle-fighting powerhouse
watermelon: contain vitamins A and C, which promote great skin and hair
tomatoes: a great source of lycopene, an anti-aging antioxidant & a skin smoother
