Eat yourself beautiful

Lots of creams, ointments and tablets claim to make you beautiful overnight, but how many of them really work?
Instead of spending your money on these treatments, try giving your skin a true natural glow with these organic foods.
Many celebrities swear by these essential foods to keep a healthy complexion, strong nails and shiny hair.
Antioxidants
Finding the right antioxidants can have a truly positive impact on your skin, dimming the appearance of wrinkles and giving it a natural, healthy glow.
It is thought that certain antioxidants promote collagen in the skin - the substance that keeps skin plump and young.
Uncooked, brightly coloured fresh fruit and vegetables are jam packed full of antioxidants, as well as vitamins A, C and E.
Essential fatty acids
Nutritional supplements that contain essential fatty acids are great for the skin.
Look out for supplements that contain omega 3 and omega 6, as they are the most beneficial fatty acids for our skin.
Omega 3 is really oily, so it completely sorts out dry and irritated skin. It can also be found in lots of different types of fish.
It also helps protect against the sun's harmful UV rays. As sun damage is the number one cause of premature skin aging, having a bit more protection it is extremely beneficial.
Dark chocolate
No, you're not seeing things; chocolate really has been proven to do wonders for your skin!
Every little piece of dark chocolate is rich in high levels of cocoa flavanols, which is meant to soften and hydrate our skin.
Like everything, dark chocolate has to be done in moderation. Too much can lead to health problems.
However, if a little bit of dark chocolate every day will make our skin glow, who are we to say no?

- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021Thank you Emiliano for your comment. In this blog we are referring more to oils, more so than butters and while we agree with you Shea is an excellent emollient for hair, it's consistency is more buttery and it is used more as a leave-in remedy to smooth hair texture. We have suggested Coconut oil as it helps slow down hair loss by penetrating deep into your hair shaft to prevent protein loss, which in turn prevents breakage. When applied to your scalp, it simultaneously moisturises and removes build-up around your hair follicles to encourage hair growth and is one of base oils always used in Ayurveda for hair treatments. As this post is more focused for hair and not for skin, the comedogenic scale applies to skin/pores and not hair follicles. Thank you again for your feedback.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021Hello Zu, yes hair loss can be very stressful and this in turn amplifies the cause almost.. Perhaps with Covid, your system may have been depleted of nutrients and fighting the virus can take its toll on your immune system, so sometimes our hair and skin suffer when we have been ill. We really believe in oils for scalp massage as the best way to revive the growth and help regenerate the follicles. It may be also worth at looking at internal supplements and making sure you are getting enough of omega oils, perhaps plant based such as nuts and seeds in your diet. For external oil treatment, would recommend the Really Good Hair oil which we create with Brahmi, this herb is known to help bring the scalp back to health and improve growth. Biotin is also a good vitamin to take as a supplement to help with hair growth so do look into that. So hope these tips will be helpful for you.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021I, am very surprised that your article did not include Organic Shea Butter and that coconut oil, is your number one choice for hair growth and thickness. According to the comedogenic scale, coconut oil, has a rating of (4), on a scale from (0), to (5), on clogging your pores. Why would anyone put coconut oil, on their hair or skin knowing the pores will get clogged up. Shea Butter, on the other hand has a (0), rating on the comedogenic scale, which is great for dry hair and skin and won't clog up your pores.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Mar 29, 2021Thank you for your very informative article. I suffered COVID in December, 2020, and in February I started experience extreme hair loss and all my hair jus falls like a person who is under going Chemo therapy. It's very depressing. Had to cut off all my hair and even the little that is left is falling off daily not sure what to do. Please suggest something.
- Carrot Oil for Face Mar 15, 2021Hello :) You can use carrot oil only in small drops on your skin in the morning/during the day since it is highly potent. Carrot oil is rich in vitamins and is a very effective moisturiser. You can also mix a few drops of Carrot Oil with your favorite face cream. You can do that at least twice a week or include it in your daily skincare routine. Hope this helps.
- Carrot Oil for Face Mar 15, 2021Can I use the carrot oil in the day time? Because I am using Vitamin c serum in the night. Please advise. Thanks
