Meet the Blueberry Collection

Meet the Blueberry Collection

Berries, especially blueberries, have gone from being a treat to a superfood over the past five years. Dieticians, nutritionists, and doctors alike all recommend these tasty bites for their nutrients, antioxidants, and high fiber content (sadly, blueberry pie doesn’t count). But blueberries’ benefits aren’t limited to the breakfast table. Topically, blueberries are a powerhouse ingredient too. Researchers have been studying the skin-positive properties of this berry – both inside and out. Here’s a look at why blueberries are a must-have ingredient in achieving that coveted glowing complexion.

Skincare, meet blueberries

• They are packed with this essential vitamin for skin health. Blueberries are rich in Vitamin A, which stimulates collagen and elastin production, both of which help to plump skin and visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles. And since plump skin is youthful skin, you’re sure to look fabulous.

• They are moisture rich. Blueberries contain omega-9 fatty acids, which provide deep skin hydration and improve skin elasticity. This is essential in colder months, when lower humidity levels and chillier air rob our skin of much needed moisture.

• They are a fantastic source of anthocyanin. Blueberries are high in anthocyanins, water-soluble pigments that give blueberries their deep indigo and violet hues. Anthocyanins are potent antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties. Extra bonus – they protect skin from UV damage.

• Say hello to new skin. Blueberries are high in Vitamins C and E, both of which accelerate the removal of dead surface skin cells, contributing to a brighter complexion. Vitamin E even amplifies the benefits of Vitamin C, making blueberries greater than the sum of their parts.

You probably aren’t excited by the idea of mashing blueberries into a paste and applying them to your skin. The mess aside, anyone who’s gotten blueberries on their hands knows it takes a lot of scrubbing to get the pigment out.
