Goji berries skin benefits

bowl of goji berries
Goji berries are on the list of superfoods, and they are thought to provide plenty of essential nutrients for our overall health. Discover their skin benefits here.

It’s official. We love skincare here in the UK. It’s estimated that we spend about £920 million per year on non-medicated face care products, making it one of the largest cosmetic markets in the country(and the world).1

While we might love applying creams, serums and other products, we all know that it’s essential to take care of your skin from the inside out too. From drinking plenty of water to eating a healthy diet, skincare isn’t always about the products you apply.2,3

With a sweet and fruity taste, there’s no doubt that goji berries are delicious. However, they’re thought to be packed full of nutrients too. It may come as no surprise that these small red berries have been used in traditional Chinese culture medicine for over 2,000 years.5

Goji berries have become increasingly popular across the world too. Billed as one of our favourite superfoods, more and more of us are including goji berries in our recipes, supplements and snacks.6
