Strawberries Renew Complexion

Strawberries Renew Complexion

Strawberries are full of antioxidants that are great for the skin, especially ones face.  The fruit’s tiny seeds also act as a natural, gentle exfoliant.  For a clearer complexion, slice off the top of a strawberry and rub it on a clean face.  Wait 10 minutes or so and then rinse off.  This is a cheap and simple way to renew your complexion when you don’t have time to hit the salon for a facial!
