Get your glow on: 3 delicious smoothies that’ll seriously boost your skin’s radiance

You are what you eat, they say.

And actually – it’s true.

Every 28 days, our skin renews itself, shedding old, dead cells and replacing them with new ones. And what you eat will have a major impact on every cell in your body – including the ones in your skin.

For a complexion that glows with health, eat as many leafy greens as possible, along with healthy fats (hello coconut oil) and antioxidant-rich superfoods. No matter how many creams, serums or lotions you use, your skin will be fighting an uphill battle without the right nourishment.

These three smoothies all pack a serious punch when it comes to skin-glowing nutrients, and are a great way to start your day:

1. Kale and sunflower smoothie with papaya and pear

Full of antioxidants to make your skin glow.
