Skincare aficionado and smoothie enthusiast Maya Quinn depends on her anti-aging smoothies to keep her complexion glowing and young. “What you consume shows on your skin,” she explains.
Maya fights inflammation, increases collagen, and helps to prevent wrinkles by combining nutrient-dense foods.
Berry Glow Smoothie is her first choice. “This one forms my daily ritual,” she says. It calls for blueberries, strawberries, spinach, Greek yoghurt, and a slosh of almond milk. “Berries have amazing antioxidants to help shield skin from damage,” Maya says.
Her Tropical Skin Saver is still quite popular. She combines a scoop of collagen powder, mango, pineapple, coconut water. She says, laughing, “It tastes like a vacation in a glass.” “And the vitamin C supports collagen synthesis, which is essential for firm skin.”
Maya includes green tea in her smoothies as well. “I steep the tea, let it cool, and use it as a liquid base,” she explains. Antioxidants abound in green tea that fight free radicals harming skin.
Maya advises novices to play about with substances they enjoy. She counsels, “It’s all about finding what works for your taste buds and skin.” For best effects, she also advises consuming fresh, organic vegetables wherever possible.
Maya has seen a notable change in the texture and radiance of her skin by drinking these nutrient-dense smoothies. “It’s like treating your skin from the inside out like it’s having a spa day,” she says smiling.
