Healthy eating is not just about keeping your insides in good shape. It is also about keeping your entire body in good condition. This means your insides, your outsides and your mental state. Fortunately, many healthy eating tenets apply to all aspects of your health. In fact, you can learn a lot from a healthy diet about keeping your skin youthful looking and wrinkle-free.

One of the biggest parts of healthy eating is balance. This relates to your skin in several ways. Just as you balance your diet of food, you also need to balance your skin’s diet. This means that if you feed your skin a hearty dose of vitamins in an anti-aging cream, you need to balance out those vitamins with a mega-moisturizer. Many vitamins that help prevent aging can also cause skin to dry out. This can actually cause more wrinkles. The best way to prevent this is to keep skin hydrated by – you guessed it – drinking lots of water and applying refreshers regularly.

In addition to staying hydrated, some forms of vitamins can cause sun sensitivity. If you take large amounts of vitamin C or vitamin A, then you likely are aware of this issue already. But did you know that the same applies if you take these vitamins topically? If you use a vitamin-heavy lotion, then you need to be sure to wear a protective covering like a hat or sunscreen when you are outside.

When it comes to staying healthy, you probably have read that it is important to eat a balanced diet that includes small portions of nuts and other legumes. However, the types of nuts you eat can also keep skin smooth. Walnuts are the best for preserving youthful looking and acting skin. This is because they are full of antioxidants, which your body stops producing in mass after your mid-twenties.

When it comes to what you put in your mouth, the truth is that a lot of it can help out your face as well. Hearty veggies can often make great facials. Herbal supplements often are ideal wrinkle treatments. Healthy eating is, in many ways, also the key to younger looking skin.

Here are some of our favorite things to eat and drink (and "feed" our skin) with younger looking skin in mind:

  • Eat, Drink and be Gorgeous
    A book all about how to make the right choices when it comes to your looks — and to live it up at the same time.
  • Philosophy: The Microdelivery
    An in-home peel that delivers a serious vitamin boost and immediate results in the form of smoother and revitalized skin.
  • Awake Lotion refresher
    Will brighten your face without smearing your makeup. A great way to keep skin hydrated while maintaining a professional, polished look.
  • Almond Walnut Crunch Cookies
    Get your walnuts in a fun, sugar-free, gluten-free, flour-free cookie that somehow still manages to be delicious. Don’t ask me how. I don’t make ‘em — I just eat ‘em!
