Salmon

With Omega-3, Selenium and vitamin D; Salmon sure does pack a nutritional punch. But one of Salmon’s most skin-beneficial nutrients is DMAE- the ultimate skin-loving ingredient.

Rich in iron, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients- it’s one superfood you should definitely be including in your diet.

These antioxidants also act as highly-powerful anti-inflammatories to decrease under-eye circles, puffiness, redness and blotches- so a cup of Spinach might well be the best way to hide the signs of a heavy weekend.
