Tomatoes are great when it comes to giving your skin some well deserved toned and youthful look. Because of the phytochemical called Lycopene present in them, it ends up spiking the production of collagen in your body thus keeping your skin extremely soft and supple. Also the fact that tomatoes too contain anti-oxidants puts it on our list since it ends up serving a dual purpose of proving soft and supple along with healthy and glowing skin.

Turmeric has been one of the most preferred and sought after natural ingredient in a lot of beauty routines and treatments since forever. Having anti-inflammatory properties, this wonder product makes sure that your skin is protected from the damage that free radicals can subject it to.

Adding turmeric to your diet as well as to any natural facemasks that you make at home, will go a long way in giving you that natural glow you have always longed for. Just mix turmeric with yogurt and make a facemask out of it already!
5. Almonds:
Ever since we were kids, we have been drilled with one thing regarding almonds; that they make our minds sharper. But did you know that almonds are more versatile than that? You must have heard that Vitamin E is used extensively in a lot of expensive beauty treatments, and almonds are absolutely abundant with this little awe-inspiring ingredient. Vit E is responsible for cell regeneration, thus helping to heal wounds and even lightening scars and acne marks. The best part is that Vitamin E also helps in defending your skin against the damage caused by the sun’s rays! Did you know that you can even use almond oil on the skin? This essentially helps in lightening any under-eye dark circles that you might have and thus makes your skin look brighter and fresher.
