Cooking Your Way to Gorgeous: Skin-Friendly Superfoods, Age-Reversing Recipes, and Fabulous Homemade Facials

A cookbook filled with quick, easy, and delicious recipes guaranteed to beautify hair, skin, and nails may sound too good to be true, but this is exactly what celebrity aesthetician Borba promises and delivers. Most of the key ingredients can be readily purchased at a local grocery store and are referred to as hero foods, such as berries, seeds, nuts, sprouts, fish, greens, and whole grains. Best of all, there is no need for self-deprivation; the author recognizes that people occasionally give in to cravings. Borba explains how to incorporate nutrition-rich foods, as well as how to substitute healthier versions of favorite comfort foods. For cocktail fans, there is a generous selection of libations that sneak in a health benefit. Teetotalers have a choice of tasty and nutritious nonalcoholic mocktails or smoothies. The author also offers practical advice and simple but effective home-spa treatments that address a host of common beauty concerns.
