The Beauty Benefits of Avocados!

The Beauty Benefits of Avocados!

Avocados are mother nature’s skin moisturizers. They are packed with healthy fats, phytonutrients, and contain more potassium than a banana. These key benefits make avocados essential for your health and skin- especially if you’re a redhead. So, why not make use of this healthy fruit, both in the kitchen and bathroom?

Here are two of our favorite ways to make use of avocados:

1. Avocado Facial Mask: Inexpensive and Chemical-free!

Blend 1 ripe avocado and about 3 to 4 tbsp. of plain yogurt.

Apply to your gorgeous fair face (make sure your face is cleansed and free of all make-up!).

Leave on for just about 20 minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water.

2. Avocado Cold Soup: Healthy and easy to make!

1 whole peeled cucumber

1 ripe avocado (remove pit)

2 tbsp coriander

2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

½ probiotic yogurt

½ cup cold water

Handful of carrots (optional)

1-3 small ripe tomatoes (optional)

Put all in blender and hit that power button! Garnish with coriander and serve in a chilled bowl.

Redheads face skin obstacles daily, but these recipes will help regulate all of the problem areas- chemical free!
