Get the Glow Inside And Out: What Fruits Upgrade Your Complexion
Upgrade your diet, upgrade your complexion!
All of the different ingredients in the products we use and foods we eat can affect the body differently. There are certain ingredients that the body and skin respond well to, while others might cause a negative reaction. When it comes to fruit, our skin typically benefits. Some types of fruit can help to slow aging, while others work well to give you a glowing complexion. Let’s take a look at which fruits you should be eating to achieve brighter and healthier skin!
Watermelon
As its name suggests, watermelon is filled with water. When you consume watermelon, you can give your skin exactly what it needs – hydration. This will then give you soft, supple skin. Watermelon also contains vitamins C, A, B1, B6, and lycopene. These vitamins play an important role in keeping your skin healthy.
You can add watermelon to your diet by drinking watermelon juice daily. You can also eat watermelon plain or in a fruit salad. This is a healthy snack you can enjoy whenever you would like to. You could make a DIY face mask that uses watermelon juice mixed with lemon juice and a clay mask base.
Watermelon offers the same hydrating properties when applied topically. Get Truly’s Booty Bundle for a sculpted derriere that glows.
Acai
Another favorite fruit for skincare is acai berries. Acai berries are full of antioxidants and vitamins A and C. Together, they have anti-aging properties, boost skin cell turnover, and promote collagen production. This then brightens the skin.
Acai is the perfect flavor to add to a smoothie you can drink or apply to your skin. And they’re delicious when combined with water or milk, other berries, and a banana in the blender. If you want to apply an acai mask to your skin, you can mix acai berry powder with honey and olive oil.
Alternatively, find it in a product like Truly’s Acai Your Boobies Bundle.
Oranges
Oranges contain vitamin C, making them a perfect addition to your skincare routine or diet. When you consume vitamin C, your skin gets a boost and looks more radiant.
Oranges are filled with a natural oil that can help to hydrate your skin. When you eat this fruit, you will increase your vitamin C and antioxidant intake, helping to improve the appearance of your complexion.
If you want to eat oranges for better skin, eat about one per day. It can be mixed with other fruits or added to a recipe. You might also find do-it-yourself recipes for oranges mixed with spices and other ingredients, such as honey and turmeric.

Cucumbers
You might not consider cucumbers as fruits, but they technically fit into this category.
Cucumbers are great for the skin because they contain so much water. They also offer a relaxing cooling effect and give your body the antioxidants it needs. Cucumber peels contain vitamins C and K, which both help to improve your skin’s tone and texture.
It also makes a great snack or addition to certain meals. For a refreshing drink, add thin slices of cucumber to a glass of water. You can also mix it with flour and rose water to improve acne or use it as a cooling and hydrating face mask.
Cherries
If you think cherries are delicious, you’re in luck. They contain many nutrients, including vitamins A, C, K, and folate, as well as minerals. This mix of nutrients means that your skin is getting antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to repair and reverse any damage your skin may have.
You can add cherries to your diet as a snack or side. They also taste great on top of cakes and other foods. Cherries can also be applied to the skin easily. All you need to do is mash several of them and let the mixture sit on your skin for a few minutes. After a little while, you can rinse it off and enjoy glowing skin.
Blueberries
Blueberries contain many nutrients and vitamins, including vitamins A and C. When you eat blueberries regularly, you will notice softer, younger-looking skin. Plus, they taste great!
You can eat blueberries raw or mixed into another food, such as yogurt or oatmeal. If you would like to use blueberries for skincare, try mixing them with yogurt and let the combination sit for a little while before rinsing it off. Some store-bought products contain blueberries too like Truly’s Blueberry Kush Bundle, designed to illuminate the skin.
SHOULD FRUIT BE PUT IN YOUR SKINCARE OR ON YOUR PLATE?
Because certain fruits can have a positive effect on your skin, you might be wondering about the best way to soak up all of those nutrients. Perhaps you have found skincare products that include fruits or vegetables. Or maybe you’ve been trying to add more fruit into your diet.
The good thing is that you can get the benefits of the fruit by eating it or using skincare that includes it. Because there are so many different types of fruit that offer benefits, it may be difficult to find a skincare product for each of the fruits you’re wanting to try. On the other hand, you may be eating fruit all day if you try to include them all in your diet.
Whether you would like to consume fruit or apply fruit-based skincare products to your face, you should notice a difference. Antioxidants can give you glowing skin whether you eat them or apply them as a part of your current skincare routine.
By including a good amount of fruit in your diet, you can achieve a well-balanced diet and promote overall health. Fruit contains fiber, which helps you to have a healthy digestive system. This will also have a positive impact on your skin, helping you glow from the inside out.
