Fruit and vegetable juice to revitalise and moisturise your skin

Middlesbrough Town Meal 2009

On Saturday I was invited to promote raw food at the Middlesbrough town meal. I was struggling to make the stall look interesting, so I said that I’d make a few smoothies to liven it up. The smoothies went down really well and hordes of people came to see and taste! Unfortunately I couldn’t make smoothies quick enough because I was preparing them from whole fruit rather than pre-prepared fruit and I didn’t make enough money to cover my expenses. It was a great experience though and fantastic fun, it’s the first time ever that I’ve sold smoothies. I need to streamline things if I were to make any money at it! Sorry to anyone who had to wait a long time to be served!

During the afternoon I spent three & half hours chatting to people about the benfits of raw food, chopping up fruit, and making the smoothies. My hands were constantly soaked in the juices of pineapple, banana, oranges, limes, lettuce, spinach and apples!

I noticed a fascinating thing to do with the skin on my hands. They feel amazing – really soft and supple! It feels like my skin has been fed from the outside and it is revitalised. I was always sceptical when you see those pictures of women trying to look good by covering their eyes in cucumbers and tomatoes, but now I’m thinking that there is something in it!
