Avocado Benefits for Skin
I get hungry just thinking about this luscious green fruit. They are one of my top favorite foods and not just because they taste so darn yummy but also because they are so good for you. They offer remarkable benefits for your skin both when eaten and when applied topically.
Avocados are loaded with vitamins and healthy fats that feed and nourish your skin from the inside as well as from the outside. When eaten, the concentrated nutrients and oils work their way up to the surface of your skin healing, soothing, and moisturizing from the inside out.
Avocado oil, a hot skin care ingredient, has a vast number of benefits for the health of your skin. This super concentrated oil contains high amounts of vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E, beta-carotene, along with amino acids, lecithin, and other essential fatty acids. This combination of nutrients infuses your skin with skin improving properties.
This mouthwatering fruit/oil does the following:
- Nourishes
- Softens
- Moisturizes
- Soothes
- Heals
- Helps the skin repair itself
- Reduces age spots
- Helps to regenerate cells
There’s no disputing that the avocado is insanely healthy for you and your skin. Whether eating it raw, mashing it up and applying it to your skin, or applying the oil your skin will reap the rewards and look more beautiful. As you feed your skin nutrients and fatty acids your complexion will appear healthier and more vibrant.

Mash up the avocado and mix it with a splash of milk, a drizzle of honey, and enough oatmeal to create a thick paste. Wash and dry your face and then apply the mask. Leave it on for about 10 minutes, rinse, and voila your skin will look refreshed and rejuvenated.
I have always loved Avocados. I didn’t know they were good for the skint too. I remember trying this facial mask with Avocado content and I must say it was great, my face was smooth and soft as a baby’s bottom. It’s truly a miracle fruit.
Isn’t it nice to know Vianney that something you love eating so much, is also great for your skin? 🙂
Your recipe for avocado facial sounds like a recipe for ice cream, and I was drooling and wondering what will it taste like. I read somewhere that avocado is rich in antioxidants too, to flush out harmful free radicals that are aging factors for the skin. So slather on some of that guacamole main ingredient and enjoy healthy, glowing skin.
Oh, you made me laugh Arianne! I know it does sound yummy, but it’s so good for your skin! I have to admit though, I find it hard to use avocados for my face beacause I LOVE to eat them so much 🙂
