Why Fruit Extracts Are So Good For The Skin
There’s no denying the benefits of fruit for your diet due to their range of nutrients and vitamins, but how does it benefit your skin? From preventing acne, fine lines, pigmentation to keeping your skin glowing, the benefits of fruit for your skin are endless. If you are wondering how, then listen up - fruits are a rich source of antioxidants, making them one of the best things you can eat to achieve healthy and glowing skin.
Fruit enzymes offer gentle exfoliation to the top layer of the skin for a natural glow. As an exfoliator for all skin types, fruit enzymes gently resurface skin to provide a smooth complexion and give you that glow! They're effective yet so mild that even those with the most sensitive skin can use them. As a result, skin texture will be even, and the breakdown process shows a reduction in scars and pigmentation – what’s not to love?
Although eating fruit is the best way to gain their benefits, we all know it can be hard sometimes (no judging here!) to get your 5 a day into your diet every day. The next best thing you can do is incorporate fruit into your skincare to still get their amazing benefits. Good news for you - we have made it simple with our launch edit of easy-to-use products for head to toe glow! – say hello to Fruit Works!
