Happy Tuesday everyone! Today we’re profiling @lindsrosso - Linds shared her skin journey with us so we could share more information with you on what worked for her, fun skin tips & more!

Similarly to the collagen and elastin in our skin, the natural HA in our skin begins to decrease as we age. There are multiple ways to naturally boost the HA in our skin as we get older - diet and skincare are two very important ways! Where Does it Come From Fruits and veggies that are high in antioxidants protect the skin from inflammation and help the skin retain HA. You might...
