It’s what’s on the inside that counts. No seriously. Changing your eating habits will allow your skin to produce moisture naturally.

1. Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes have an outstanding amount of beta-carotene and vitamins A, B, and C that contributes to your skin texture. Placing slices of sweet potatoes on your eyes can help with dark circles and puffiness as well.
