YOU are what you eat, we are told and unless blessed with super-genes an unhealthy diet will eventually take its toll on the complexion.
But what if you could get the benefits of skin-boosting foods in a beauty product? Every little helps as far as I'm concerned.
Elemis Superfood Facial Oil contains a veritable shopping list of ingredients including Brocolli Seed Oil that is high in vitamin C anti-oxidants, cucumber which is rich in fatty acids and Daikon radish oil which is said to feed the skin from the inside out.
I'd far rather use a facial oil with natural ingredients than chemicals, no matter how high-tech their anti-ageing qualities may be and preferably one that harnesses the relaxing benefits of aromatherapy oils.
Using a facial oil should feel like going to a spa in your home as well as delivering an intensive moisture boost to the skin and this one ticks every box.
I use it before my normal moisturiser and my skin looks a lot healthier, even without eating my greens.
A radiance-boosting four stars
Superfood Facial Oil, £45 is available from all Elemis stockists including Debenhams, Argyle Street.
