You do not need to spend a fortune on miracle face creams and lotions to have great looking, healthy glowing skin. Basic beauty begins with the glow of good health, which shines from within. The skin often mirrors the health of the whole body. A radiant clear complexion begins with proper nutrition, efficient digestion and assimilation of nutrients by the body and regular elimination. Skin problems are a reflection of internal health and are often a reflection of overall body and blood toxicity and/or stomach problems.
Almost anything that cleanses the blood or intestines will also show a result on the skin. Skin problems can also be as a result of allergies, hormone imbalances, nutrition or dehydration. There are so many natural ways to look after your skin, from eating special nutritious food loaded with vitamins and minerals to creating your own home made skin care products. Some great skin nourishing foods are: almonds (with the skin on), spinach, honey, pineapple, oily fish, tomatoes and dark berries such as blueberries and cranberries. You can use the following ingredients as face masks: honey, oatmeal (a great exfoliator!), honey, olive oil and avocado.
