One of the key aspects of maintaining healthy, glowing skin is to eat/drink well. In the winter months, it is always really tempting to go overboard on sweet treats as it is Halloween and Christmas. However, I try (emphasis on the try) to eat these in moderation and feed my sweet tooth with other options. The smoothie above is something that I drink all of the time. I don't have a specific recipe, I tend to just add frozen berries, orange juice and occasionally a banana. This drink, as well as tasting amazing, has many health benefits, the main being the berries which have lots of antioxidants. These antioxidants help to keep your face glowing by reducing the production of free radicals which damage your skin! Also, they are anti-ageing!!!
As well as smoothies, there are loads and loads of healthy food recipes out there for you. Putting good food into your body will have true benefits to the appearance of your skin. ALOHA have many delicious recipes for you to try out at home! I've had a look at their website and I will be definitely trying out some dishes. If you want me to do ant baking/cooking related posts, let me know in the comments!

If you read 'My Germany Trip + Haul' post you will know that I bought this highlighter in duty free. Ever since purchasing it, I have been using it almost every day. It gives my skin such a gorgeous shine as you could most likely tell from the photo above. I apply this to my cheek bones and it really gives the impression of healthy, dewey skin!
Aside from highlighters, sun care is so important to wear all year round. It protects your face from UV radiation and therefore keeps it healthier. Many people assume that because it is winter you don't need to wear suncream but that isn't true! The sun ray's are still shining so it is worth protecting your skin. I wear SPF in the form of moisturiser - mine has a SPF of 20.
How do you keep your skin healthy and glowing even in the winter months?

Couldn't agree with you more about drinking for your skin. It's worked wonders on my skin but it still needs something extra from time to time! Love this post.

I noticed that my skin had took a turn for the worse lately and then it hit me what it was... I stopped drinking my smoothies in the morning and was drinking less water than normal. I completely agree how smoothies can help keep your skin glowing. Great post :)

Aha, okay! Yeah, it was probably because of that! I should definitely drink more water, I try to have 1L a day but I know you should really have 2L! Thank you!
