“Good Skincare is the best foundation for your makeup.”- Holland Roden
Eat Beautiful- by Wendy Rowe “Food and Recipes to Nourish Your Skin From the Inside Out”. This is just one of the many books we have picked out this year to get ready for all seasons. We highly recommend for if you are looking for guidance on food, recipes, and natural beauty tips. Aside from the few blogs post we’ll make on the book.
Introduction
EVERYONE WANTS GREAT SKIN WITH A HEALTHY GLOW
“I am a believer nurturing not only the outer skin, but also what lies beneath- our organs and intestines. What’s happenign in our outer skin- the skin that we can see- is often a reflection of the health of our insides; our organs are hugely hard-working and important in their own right. If you don’t service the car, it’s not going to work well. Skincare is important, of course, but eating a range of good-quality, skin-friendly foods- seasonal and organically produced when possible- will provide the best foundation. This will ensure your skin has a healthy glow”
