No doubt all of us want beautiful hair and glowing skin. With so many cosmetic options and non-invasive treatments available, we usually forget about the natural and fascinating foods present in our kitchen. Once your diet is rich, you dream of getting a better hair and skin will turn into reality, without the need for any product whatsoever.
Here is a list of 14 foods which are going to work wonders and amaze you with the benefits:
- Avocados: avocados are becoming increasingly popular in cosmetic products like shampoos and masks. There’s a reason why! Because avocados are a rich source of monosaturated fatty acids, antioxidants, fibre, magnesium, folate and potassium.
- Walnuts: walnuts, high in omega 3 fatty acid and Vitamin E, when taken in handful quantity every day improves your skin texture and hair quality.
- Dark chocolate: dark chocolate is enriched with flavonoids. These antioxidants are helpful for reducing pigmentation, dark circles and wrinkles.
- Almonds: Vitamin E and flavonoids are great for skin and almonds are stuffed with them. Almonds help to get rid of oxidative stress and protect the body from free radicals. Since they also contain manganese and selenium; they are a top choice for lustrous mane as well.
- Blueberries: Blueberries are a rich source of antioxidants which are beneficial for fighting signs of ageing, fine lines, deep wrinkles and grey hair.

- Turmeric: turmeric is enriched with curcumin. This fat-soluble antioxidant is an anti-inflammatory factor. Also, turmeric works wonders to reduce pigmentation and fine tones the complexion.
- Cayenne: cayenne improves circulation and hence, makes skin softer, improves texture and even the skin tone. Having it with warm water and a squeeze of a lemon is an adieu to all skin problems.

I’ve just had RF, Hifu treatment, and fat freezing at the Leeds Vivo.
Mobina carried out this treatment and she is v knowledgable, professional and attentive throughout. I’ve got my next appointment booked & can’t wait to see the results after that session.
I would highly recommend this treatment and Mobina.

Great little clinic, clean, tidy, and friendly. Claudia was great, knowledgeable, chatty and made me feel really comfortable. Thanks so much!
Had Hifu and lemon bottle injections for double chin . Went well and looking forward for the results in the coming weeks. The specialist therapist is very accommodating, explaining carefully to me every steps she is performing and this makes me feel at ease and comfortable. The procedure itself is somewhat uncomfortable as it is painful but it is tolerable. Booked my next session.
