5 Smoothies For Perfect Skin

We have all read many times what we aren’t supposed to drink or eat to have a perfect skin, but I personally believe is better to see everything from abundance and instead of reading about what not to eat lets read about what we can eat, well in this case, drink.
These 5 delicious smoothies are like medicine for your skin thanks to the combination of fruits, vegetables, proteins, and good-for-you fats. They are packed with antioxidants, keeping wrinkles and sagging to a minimum and essential fatty acids, which calm puffiness and redness.
