6 Best Food for skincare

1, SALMON: It’s among the world’s greatest sources of omega-3 fatty acids. For skin: keeping your skin from looking dry and helping it battle the dangers of excessive sunlight. Other omega-3 foods: sardines, walnuts, flaxseed.

2, CARROTS: It has rich tiny orange pigments called beta-carotene. It nestle into your skin, fill in blotches, and give you a healthy glow. And what’s more, this can actually help prevent premature aging from sun damage. Other beta-carotene foods: sweet potatoes, red bell peppers, red grapefruit.

3, AVOCADO: People with higher intakes of olive oil had fewer wrinkles than people with higher intakes of butter. Why eat avocado over olive oil? Both are good, but avocados have the added bonus of B vitamins, which also help to keep your skin looking vibrant and smooth. Other monounsaturated-fat foods: olive oil, almonds, peanut butter.

4, BEANS: Smoothing out wrinkles. High intakes of legumes—alongside vegetables and healthy fats—resulted in 20% fewer wrinkles over time. The effect is likely a result of isoflavones—potent antioxidants—concentrated in the beans. Other isoflavone-rich foods: alfalfa, tempeh, tofu.

5, GRAPES: Besides providing protection from heart attack and stroke, antioxidants called polyphenols found in grapes can also help keep middle-aged skin from sagging. That’s because polyphenols improve skin’s elasticity by strengthening collagen, the primary protein in skin’s innermost layer. Other polyphenol-rich foods: grape juice, blueberries

6, WATER: No doubt. Other replacement: watermelon, peaches, celery.
