110: Nutrition tips for better skin | esthetician Kristina Holey

Clean Beauty School

“By the time we see symptoms manifesting at the surface, that means there’s a chronic history of issues going on internally. It takes time to heal—often, more time than we want it to,” says famed holistic esthetician Kristina Holey. Her first step in addressing troubled skin? Reworking the diet: “Blood sugar, fiber, and variety. If you address those three things in your diet, I guarantee you'll see significant results in your skin.” In this episode of Clean Beauty School, host and mindbodygreen beauty director Alexandra Engler chats with Holey about her best nutrition tips, skin care ingredients to soothe inflammation, and her favorite at-home facial tools!
