Monthly Article - Veggies for the Skin-AVOCADO
Yeah- OK so you think Avocadoes are just for Guacamole. Nope! Although I do make a mean Guacamole thanks to my late husband's Aunt Carol.
In the last ten years, I've been on various health or diet food kicks and in some instances was warned about eating avocadoes because of it's "Fat content".
Other diets encourage eating several a week as a "good fat".
Well- I'm not here to challenge your dietary habits, your eating of the green goddess of fruits or whether you have a great gaucamole recipe.
I'm here to tell you about the awesome things that Avocadoes do for your skin.
Avocado contains essential fatty acids and other nutrients that help prevent premature wrinkling. It softens skin and restores a youthful appearance. Avocados are rich in minerals and high in vitamin A and all the B vitamins.
Containing more protein than any other fruit, avocados are the perfect nourishment to maintain healthy skin.
Why did we decide to talk about Avocadoes in September? Because we all had a hot and chapping Summer with loads of hot sun and drying sun damage.
Our skin took a beating. And...Winter is coming!
Do your skin a sweet favor and try our Avocado Lemongrass & Verbena Bar.
It's made with pureed fresh Avocado, ground Lemon Verbena & Lemongrass herbs, Verbena and Lemongrass essential oils, fresh spring water and fresh whole Goat’s Milk
and superfatted with Avocado and Sunflower oils. It's fabulous for all Skin types. Restores elasticity and a youthful glow.
I've been using this for the last month - so that I could write about to you today - and the lines around my mouth,nose and lips has actually softened and disappated, since I started.
I follow up with the light oils mixture of Jojoba and Avocado. And before you think- eewwwhhh - that sounds icky and oily.
I have naturally oily skin - but this doesn't leave that feeling at all. It soft, smooth and subtle. The pores are smaller and less noticable. I love the Avocado Lemongrass Verbena bar.
It's my new favorite.
