Are you running late and only have five minutes for breakfast? Put down that Pop Tart or doughnut and opt for this nutritional and skin-healthy option instead!
This smoothie not only is it uber simple to prepare, it’s also jam-packed with Vitamin C! And we all know that Vitamin C is essential in skincare, especially since it promotes collagen and prevents wrinkling. Who wouldn’t drink to that? Plus, the honey in the smoothie aids in preventing inflammation (meaning it lowers your chances of getting pimples, BONUS!).
Prep Time: 5 mins.

I’ll be honest and love Pop Tarts as much as the next gal, cause despite them being bad for you, they are delicious, but I’ve been trying to avoid those kind of foods and try to eat more skin-healthy foods instead. It works in the long run, and at least this one is a healthy but yummy option!
