Breakouts are the worst, especially in the Summer when you want to show off more skin. You can spot treat blemishes with foods you likely have in your fridge, but you can also treat your skin from the inside out.
This creamy smoothie recipe is made from Vitamin E-rich spinach and avocado and sweetened with grapes that contain anti-inflammatory antioxidants.
You’ll love the taste of the strawberries that also help fight free-radical damage, giving skin a more radiant glow.
Almond butter offers the minerals zinc and selenium, both essential for healthy skin, and a sprinkle of flaxmeal contains omega-3s that help reduce inflammation.

Fats have a bad reputation, but eating the right kinds — monounsaturated fats (MUFAs) — may actually quiet hunger. This clear-skin smoothie is made with ripe avocado, a great source of oleic acid. Be careful not to overdo it on this healthy ingredient, as it’s also high in calories.
