Did you know that the health benefits of blueberries don’t just work from the inside out, they can also work from the outside in?
This amazing superfood can work its anti-aging magic whether you put it in your smoothies or use it in a face mask. Famously rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals, blueberries can help neutralise the free radicals that damage skin cells.
They’re packed with Vitamins A and C, and are known as miracle fruits for treating acne, blemishes, fine lines, broken capillaries, dryness AND uneven skin tone!
Here’s a DIY Blueberry face mask that will help give you fresher, softer and glowing skin:
Blueberry Beauty Mask
¼ cup OOB blueberries
1 tblspn raw organic honey
1 tblspn organic olive oil
Directions
1. Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend well.
2. Evenly apply all over the face, leaving room around the eyes and mouth.
3. Leave the masque on for five minutes allowing it to fully sink in hydrating and nourishing the skin.
4. Remove the masque with a damp cloth.
OOB Blueberries (RRP $9.99) are available at supermarkets and specialty stores throughout New Zealand.
