Ingredient of the week: Avocado

''Why we're loving avocado...''

They put it in cocktails, starters, mains and desserts. It seems that this fruit can do no wrong. Avocado is the official super-social-media food.

If you’re familiar with Instagram, you’ll be used to seeing pretty, colourful posts of Avocado artfully sliced on granary bread topped with eggs, spices or chucked into smoothies.

Avocados are versatile, healthy and delicious.

But, not many people realise the benefits of using avocado in skincare products. Today we are taking a different angle and looking at the skincare benefits are of this little green gem.

Avocados contain over 25 vital nutrients including vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals for you skin. It helps to soothe the skin, reduce age spots and give radiant skin tone.

The fruit is packed with a tonne of antioxidants that protect skin from damage. It improves skin’s complexion and density by deeply penetrating into the skin to restore nutrients and help increase blood circulation.

The healthy fats in avocados will bring intense moisture to your skin, and avocado oils are very similar to the natural oils in your skin. The perfect pair!

So by all means eat as much avocado as you want BUT don’t forget to put some on your skin!
