What Makes Kales So Good For You

Okay so we all know kale is amazing for you in general, but did you know that it is specifically great for your skin? Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, kale might just be the skincare ingredient you have been missing!

It’s no secret that at ESW Beauty we love our greens! Kale is a standout amongst others as it is full of amazing vitamins like Vitamins K, C, and E. Together they work to hydrate the skin, detoxify your pores, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Specifically, Vitamin K can reduce fine lines and wrinkles as it helps tighten skin naturally. Additionally, this can help reduce swelling and scarring on the skin.

Kale is also full of Lutein, a carotenoid that promotes collagen production. When collagen naturally breaks down in the skin, wrinkles begin to form. Since collagen is a vital part in your complexion's strength and elasticity, Lutein helps keep it strong, giving your

skin a fuller appearance.

Lastly, Vitamin C is a key ingredient in Kale with amazing benefits. One cup of kale actually contains more Vitamin C than an orange! Vitamin C aids in repairing skin tone, reducing dark spots, and brightening skin tone, creating an overall glowing complexion.

A great way to add kale into your diet is through healthy salads, smoothies and even sandwiches! Massaging kale with your favorite salad dressing makes for the perfect, refreshing summer salad. If you don’t love the taste of kale, sneak it into your favorite fruit smoothie, avoid the taste, and still reap the benefits!
