Gurugram, Haryana, India
Before you embark on your beach adventures or simply enjoy outdoor gatherings, indulge your skin with a revitalizing boost from avocados.
Get the Avocado Glow! Dubbed the fruit of life, the avocado contains a myriad of nutrients that can help improve skin elasticity, firmness, and hydration, as well combatting signs of ageing and offering a level of protection from the sun. We can reap the bountiful benefits by not only eating avocados on a regular basis, but also by applying avocado masks directly onto the skin.
Good fats for firmness
Vitamins C and E for a collagen and sun protection boost
Lutein for extra UV defence
Avocados are also a great source of lutein, a natural carotenoid that, like vitamins E and C, is an antioxidant and helps protect the skin from UV rays. A 2016 study found that individuals whose diets were supplemented with carotenoids such as lutein had significantly improved skin tone after a 12-week period. For the full avocado experience, why not treat yourself to a hydrating homemade avo face mask too. All you need is one ripe avocado and a tablespoon of honey. Combine the two ingredients to make a smooth paste, apply to the face and leave for 10 -15 minutes, then remove the mask with water for brighter, smoother skin.
“With their natural goodness and versatility, avocado's benefits for glowing skin are plentiful. Packed with healthy fats, avocados nourish and moisturize the skin from within,” says Zac Bard, Chairman of WAO.
