What you eat, how much water you drink, and your overall lifestyle habits have a huge impact on the largest organ we have….our skin. Here are 6 tips on how we can keep our skin nourished and glowing, even during the colder months
Throughout the summer when it’s hot we naturally crave lighter, more plant-based foods (much more fruit and veggies) because our hunger tends to be a little lighter. Cooler temps make us crave more comfort foods.
Tip 1: Choose healthy comfort foods
Instead of heavy, fatty, rich, unhealthy foods, choose healthy comfort foods that are naturally detoxifying and anti-inflammatory to help you glow from the inside out.
- Winter squash
- Sweet potato
- Carrots, beets, parsnips — roasted they taste wonderful drizzled with some tahini
Tip 2: Warm up a salad!
- Add roasted veggies to a salad to warm it up
- Add turmeric or ginger to a stir fry or a buddha bowl
All these foods are naturally rich in gut-friendly fiber to keep our digestive system healthy and elimination easy. Good elimination is key to a healthy glow inside and out!
Tip 3: Supplements
- Vitamin D
- Collagen
- GLA
- fish oil
- Probiotics
Tip 4: Sleep
Beauty sleep is legit! Adults aim for 7-9 hours of sleep. Earplugs, eye masks, blue light blocking glass, and sleepy time tea are all-natural solutions for good sleep.
Tip 5: Manage Stress Levels

Go for daily nature walks, do a 10-minute daily meditation, do a 5-minute journal – all of which are research-proven ways to reduce stress.
