WOT Food to Eat to Get Glowing Skin for Summer

Discover the story
We aren’t waiting till the last minute to get glowing skin for summer!

While skincare products play a role, the other piece to achieving glowing skin lies in our diet. Incorporating skin-loving foods into your meals not only nourishes your body from within but also helps combat sun damage and maintain hydration levels.

Keep scrolling to see WOT foods can help give you glowing skin by summer.

Berries, such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries, are packed with fiber, nutrients, and antioxidants like polyphenols and anthocyanins, which can shield cells from damage.

Watermelon, with its high-water content and abundance of vitamin C, not only hydrates the skin but also promotes collagen production, helping with premature aging and acne.

Sweet red cherries offer a source of vitamin C and antioxidants, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while supporting skin health.

Avocados, rich in vitamins C and E, along with beneficial unsaturated fats, aid in the absorption of essential skin-protecting vitamins and improve skin tone.

Sipping on iced green tea infused with mint and lemon not only cools you down but also harnesses the flavonoids to combat fine lines and potential UV-induced damage.

Bell peppers, with even more vitamin C than oranges, are ideal for collagen synthesis and inflammation reduction.

Also remember that staying hydrated, limiting alcohol consumption, and applying sunscreen are crucial components of your skincare regimen!

Hope this helps!
