The largest organ in the entire body, it\u2019s often the first to give you away if you\u2019re feeling hormonal or have been burning the candle at both ends, which often show up in the form of dark circles, blemishes, redness and even acne.<\/p>\n<p>But take the time to nourish your skin and provide it with all that it needs to remain healthy, and you could soon be enjoying that youthful glow you thought was long gone once again.<\/p>\n<p>The Averraglow Clear Skin Kit, which comprises a Clarifying Hydration Dew, Radiant Cleansing Nectar, Clear Skin Elixir, Flawless Nourishment Cream and 80 cotton pads, features over 40 all-natural ingredients, has the power to take your complexion back to its best in just a few weeks \u2013 clearing up breakouts, blemishes and blackheads even when nothing has worked for you before.<\/p>\n<h2>Can the right diet help your skin complexion and reduce acne?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Even so, whilst a regular skincare routine that caters to your skin\u2019s individual needs is important, it\u2019s not the only factor you should be considering if you want clear, radiant skin to be yours, and as the saying goes, we truly are what we eat.<\/p>\n<p>What we put into our bodies has a direct correlation with how our skin and hair look on the outside, which is why a good skincare routine alone isn\u2019t enough to get the results you crave unless you start from within.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-63400\"><figcaption>When it comes to looking and feeling your best, the appearance and health of your skin has a key role to play<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Many of us, on a daily basis, are consuming foods that have a detrimental impact on both the health and appearance of our complexion.<\/p>\n<p>If you eat a lot of dairy or sugary, processed snacks (all foods that cause acne) and your diet is low in fruits, veggies (read here for how a vegetarian diet reduces aging) and skin-friendly superfoods, then it won\u2019t matter if you\u2019re using the most expensive moisturiser or the most luxurious cleanser on the market \u2013 so if that sounds like you, it might be time to re-examine what you\u2019re putting on your plate each day.<\/p>\n<p>Anti-oxidants such as beta carotene, selenium and vitamins C, E and B work as bodyguards to your skin\u2019s cells, helping to protect them from the damage caused by free radicals and oxidative stress, so the more of them you are consuming, the better.<\/p>\n<p>Omega-3s are also diet inclusions for skin health and appearance, and should be included on your plate several times a week.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure what the best sources of these vital nutrients are or how to get started with over-hauling your diet for skin success, then look no further \u2013 because we\u2019ve done the hard work for you.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-79688\"><figcaption>Water might not be classed as a food, but in actual fact is THE most important thing to consider if you want to achieve glowing, healthy-looking skin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Here\u2019s a list of what to consume to improve skin health and reduce acne<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Water<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Water is the most important thing to consider if you want to achieve glowing, healthy-looking skin. Most of us are dehydrated on some level, which can lead to the appearance of early signs of ageing \u2013 so if that\u2019s the last thing you want then ensure that you are drinking at least two litres of water a day to flush toxins from your body and hydrate your cells.<\/p>\n<p>Your body simply cannot perform its functions effectively if not sufficiently hydrated, so fill a large bottle and keep it on your desk so that you can sip throughout the day and make sure you\u2019re getting your daily dose.<\/p>\n<h3>Watermelon<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not a fan of drinking plain water, then turn to foods that have a high water content to help boost your hydration levels.<\/p>\n<p>Two cups of cubed watermelon equal a full glass of water and will help to keep your cells hydrated in a tastier way \u2013 plus, as this particular fruit is packed with beta-carotene and vitamin C, it\u2019s also a great anti-oxidant filled snack.<\/p>\n<h3>Oats<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Your morning bowl of porridge doesn\u2019t just keep you fuller for longer \u2013 it is also packed with cell-protecting selenium, which is vital for long-term cell health, yet lacking in many people\u2019s diets.<\/p>\n<p>Oats also contain prebiotics, which are essential for good gut health and will bolster your immune system overall to protect your skin from harm.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-69459\"><figcaption>High in essential Omega-3 fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation, a bi-weekly portion of salmon can help to keep skin looking smooth, bright and acne-free<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Salmon<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>High in essential Omega-3 fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation, a bi-weekly portion of salmon can help to keep skin looking smooth, bright and acne-free.<\/p>\n<p>And, with the added benefits of vitamin D and anti-oxidants, a regular salmon dinner can help to reduce other frustrating skin conditions too, such as redness and rosacea, as well as reducing your risk of skin cancer overall (though this doesn\u2019t mean you can ditch the daily SPF!)<\/p>\n<h3>Berries<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Berries such as strawberries, blueberries and raspberries are packed with free radical-fighting antioxidants, vitamin C and flavonoids, all of which are beneficial for maintaining and promoting skin health.<\/p>\n<p>Switch them up and add to your daily smoothie or bowl of porridge to get the widest variety of nutrients and boost the benefits.<\/p>\n<h3>Garlic<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Herbs and spices such as garlic, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and oregano have been linked to reducing the production of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) in the body.<\/p>\n<p>And this can cause structural changes to the skin and increase the early signs of ageing \u2013 so go all in with adding flavour to your home-cooked dishes as your skin will thank you for it later.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-80515\"><figcaption>Herbs and spices such as garlic, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and oregano have been linked to reducing the production of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) in the body<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Leafy greens<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Leafy greens such as spinach and swiss chard are powerhouses that have often been touted as superfoods \u2013 and rightly so. Packed with carotene compounds, lutein and zeaxanthin, they are highly efficient at protecting and hydrating your skin cells and warding off skin damage.<\/p>\n<p>Add to smoothies and salads, or get creative with some greens-based snacks \u2013 to make kale chips, simply massage some kale leaves with olive oil and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>For your best ever looking skin, be sure to take care of it from the inside out. With a few simple additions or tweaks to your diet, you could be celebrating a smoother and more radiant complexion in weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to looking and feeling your best, the appearance and health of your skin has a key role to play.
