The Healthy Skin Diet
Karen
Fischer BHSc, Dip.Nut., 2008 “Health comes from within, from a body that is nourished and valued. Beauty follows,” Fischer says. And right she is; even the most effective serum or moisturiser won’t be able to deliver its full skin benefits if we’re living on a diet of take-away and soft drink.
Fischer’s book is a holistic examination that demonstrates just how linked what we put in our mouths and how our skin looks really is. Got an issue with cellulite or eczema? It could be your diet that’s triggering the issue.
If you think you need a bit of tough love when it comes to your skin, this book gets you thinking about what effect that donut is going to have on your complexion, or what that third latte will do to the tone of your thighs. Couple Fischer’s healthy eating lessons with a well-honed daily organic skincare habit (that means putting in the time for thorough cleansing, non-astringent organic mists and toners and diligent moisturising with organic formulations) and you’re well on the path to a glowing complexion.
So what is the number one pro beauty tip? Daily SPF. Hands down. So regardless of that brownie you ate at lunch, don’t ditch the sunscreen – it is absolutely key in the fight against ageing. Our pick? For the body, Wotnot Sunscreen. It’s chemical free, packed with antioxidants and has an SPF30. For the face Mutki Tinted Moisturiser SPF 15 works for everyday use thanks to its non-greasy texture and certified organic zinc formulation. It’s also ideal for sensitive skin so there’s no excuse to not apply. Slap, slap!
