Snack Away
Posted on: August 5, 2015
Not only are cucumbers and celery a tasty afternoon snack, they are also very healthy. Cucumbers and the human skin both have the same amount of hydrogen naturally and cucumbers are 95% water. When your skin is thirsty and dehydrated, eating a cucumber can help rehydrate while also working to rid the body of toxins.
Celery is a very good natural source for individuals wishing to consume Vitamin A and C. Both of the vitamins help with anti aging of the skin. A stalk of celery also contains Vitamin E which helps replenish the natural hydration in skin.
Both cucumbers and celery can be used for skin hydration by snacking and by using the vegetables on the outside of the body. Cucumbers make a perfect mask for the tired face. Placing a slice of cucumber over the eyes can help alleviate redness and puffiness in a matter of moments. Celery can be boiled and cooled to provide individuals with an instant relief to oily skin.
When thinking of cucumbers or celery, falling into an easy skin care routine that provides natural skin hydration is not usually the first thing that comes to mind. Even though both cucumbers and celery both make delicious, healthy afternoon snacks, they also both make incredible natural skin hydration remedies. Taking good care of your skin at home is easier than ever with cucumbers and celery.
