An Apple A Day

As the saying goes, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” and Merlot Skin Care takes this to heart. Merlot's Grape Seed Cleanser is full of natural ingredients, including papaya extract, grape seed oil, and green apple extract. 

What's so great about apples?  Apples contain many essential nutrients and vitamins which should be a part of a healthy diet. They have a high mineral content and low fat content. Iron, zinc, copper, manganese, potassium and other minerals are a must for health and general well-being. Iron, in particular, helps to raise your blood oxygen levels, which in turn increases your metabolic rate. The low fat content is great when it comes to managing weight, helping you feel full longer. This fruit can also assist in maintaining proper blood flow to the heart and has been seen to prevent chances of strokes. Other benefits of eating apples include preventing asthma and diabetes, boosting metabolic rate, keeping your liver healthy, protecting from inflammatory conditions, and protecting your lungs and vision. Apples are even benefical for your bones!

While eating an apple a day, both green or red, is healthy for your body, your skin also reaps the benefits!

There are many benefits contained in this potent fruit. Apples can help:

Nourish your skin. Apples contain powerful vitamins including Vitamin A and C. Vitamin C in particular works to prevent skin cell damage by free radicals. Thus, these vitamins work to reduce your chances of skin cancer. The collagen and elastin proteins also give your skin a boost, nourishing your complexion and healing your skin from within.

Get in those antioxidants. Antioxidants help to rebuild and rejuvenate your skin. These antioxidants work to maintain healthy and glowing skin. They also help to protect your liver and ensure its proper function.

Even skin tone. Due to this fruit’s dense vitamin content, it helps to maintain your skin’s moisture and has great whitening and nourishing effects for your complexion. Because it is packed with vitamins and minerals, incorporating skin care products with this ingredient is a must.

Prevent skin diseases. Lack of nourishment can leave your skin at risk for various skin disorders, including eczema. Apple extract assists in ensuring that your skin gets the necessary levels of nourishment it craves!

Control and prevents pimple outbreaks. Green apple, in particular, is a highly effective anti-acne treatment! Not only eating your daily apple, but using products that contain this fruit can help to control and prevent breakouts and excessive oil production.

Prevent dark eye circles. Dark, puffy circles around your eyes are signs of skin aging. Apples are known to have a positive impact on these undesirable changes!

However, these aren’t the only benefits of this delicious and juicy fruit! Powerful antioxidants and phenols present in green apples are a major player in preventing premature aging. Apples are an excellent beauty enhancer. Try out Merlot’s Cleanser and experience the benefits for yourself.
