Show Notes

Join me and Alison Bladh a Nutritional Therapist (BANT) and aesthetician as we chat all things skin care. Discover how nutrition, lifestyle and positive mindset can change your life and your skin!. You can feel and look amazing in midlife; I dare you!!!

Alison's Top Tips Include:

1. Grab yourself a day cream with SPF30+, a rich night cream, treat yourself to moisturising face masks and exfoliating scrub or peel to care from your skin from the outside in.

2. Drink good old H2O and eat healthy fats to retain moisture.

3. Avoid refined sugars to sidestep glycation and sagging skin.

4. Maintain the health of your gut microbiome and your skin biome by eating a rainbow everyday that you can easily identify as food.

5. Consider moving more to improve the circulation, mop up antioxidants and even nourish the good bacteria resident in the gut.
