 Have you got to that age when you're desperately trying all the latest topical creams in the hope that they offer just a hint of wrinkle-busting power?
If this sounds familiar you may be neglecting the most important factor for skin health and vitality. A study published in the British Journal of Nutrition supports diet as a more effective way of nourishing the deepest layers of the skin. Eating foods rich in carotenoids, vitamin E and C is a more effective way of supplying a consistent and even distribution of these bioactive nutrients. This means they reach all of the skin and not just where you apply those costly creams! See our seasonal feature for the richest fruit source of skin-friendly vitamin E and check out our "Twisted" range of fruit and vegetable juices for an antioxidant packed refresher.
