The Secret to Healthy and Glowing Skin

Luckily, I have never struggled with major acne or pimples in general. But unfortunately, my skin was always sensitive, dry and irritated. No matter what I did, nothing helped. Even the creams and salves my dermatologist prescribed me didn’t solve the problem. Not to mention the countless things I tried from the drugstore. So I began to dig deeper… and learned that you really are what you eat when it comes to your skin health!

I researched and read a lot about this topic and finally decided to try an experiment: I changed my diet completely and focused on lots of antioxidant-rich whole foods, like berries, and nutrient-dense veggies.

I also saw this articles about a beauty superfood mix by Your Super on one of my favorite wellness websites - Mind Body Green - 'This powder gives you the extra beauty boost you need to support your skin'...so I decided to give it a try. I started adding the Forever Beautiful Mix, which is a blend of natural beauty-foods, like açai, maqui, acerola, maca, chia seeds and blueberries to my smoothies. And this one was a game-changer!!


Why I use the Forever Beautiful Mix by Your Super 
Even when eating a fairly healthy diet, this mix makes it so easy for me to get my extra nutrients, healthy fats and antioxidants NATURALLY. I love that it contains only 6 powerful superfoods that are packed with antioxidants, especially vitamins E, C and A, which are known to protect against cell damage and rejuvenate the skin.

They can prevent premature skin ageing and in the case of our skin, it is largely caused by the creation of free radicals at the cellular level when skin is exposed to ultraviolet light.

Antioxidants are touted to reduce this oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals.

The mix is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids from ingredients like organic açai powder and chia seeds, which have been shown to reduce the risk of acne and other skin problems by decreasing inflammation and keeping skin cells healthy.

Maca is a powerful adaptogen that helps keep the hormone system in check which is amazing for skin health, especially during that time of the month, ladies. Side note: It’s also worth looking into if you have PMS or painful periods. Helped me big time!

Do I See a Difference? 

I'm convinced that our skin is largely impacted by our food choices - I started noticing a big difference in my skin’s appearance depending on what I eat.. especially wheat, sugar and dairy seem to have a negative effect and it looks more smooth and glowing + feels great when I focus on nutrient-dense whole foods that are high in antioxidants.

The Forever Beautiful Mix is now a staple in my diet and I always add it to my smoothies! I’m really happy that I stumbled upon this great brand and I totally support what they do. Did you know that they donate a life-saving food bar to malnourished children for every mix they sell?

And they source all their ingredients responsibly and sustainably at their origin. Check out all the certifications they have:

My Go-to Smoothie for Glowing Skin 

This berry smoothie is so easy to make and really helps to replenish the body with antioxidants and healthy fats - which will not only make you feel great but also glow from the inside out!
Simply blend 1 tbsp Forever Beautiful with 1 cup of blueberries,1 frozen banana, ½ peeled lemon, ½ beetroot and 1 cup almond milk or water. Try it!! Also, if you have access to fresh aloe vera, I really recommend adding it to your smoothie as well.

Oh, and by the way - you can even use the mix to make your own healthy superfood face mask by mixing it with some face-oil or even just water. Apply it on your face, relax and let your skin absorb all the goodness!

Are you struggling with dry skin, acne or a dull complexion? Beauty will always be more than skin deep - it comes from within! Yes, your most important beauty tool is your diet. I can really recommend focusing on more nutrient-dense foods to provide your body (and skin in this case) with all the vital nutrients it needs to thrive. I really believe that mother nature knows best - no cream or face wash will give you the same results. Eating a diet rich in fruit, veg and superfoods will make you glow from the inside out! And smoothies are definitely the easiest way to get in lots of nutrition fast.:)

Best,
