Eat These 15 Foods for Glowing Skin

Beauty creams make big promises, yet there’s even stronger evidence out there that certain foods can improve your skin. When you nourish from the inside out, you get a clear complexion that not even the best BB cream can provide. Check out this list of 15 delicious foods to incorporate into your diet for a glowing complexion.

1. Dark Chocolate: We’re thrilled to learn that we don’t have to feel guilty about eating dark chocolate. Higher levels of cocoa flavonoids can help to soften and hydrate skin. (via Fit Day)

2. Yogurt: Yogurt is rich in biotins, which nourish the skin and reinforce your fingernails. It’s also rich in protein that would aid the digestion of fat, hence a trimmer body for you! (via Style Craze)

3. Melons: Watermelons, honeydew and mangoes are everyone’s favorite fruits especially in the hot weather. Melons and mangoes contain carotenoids that will improve the quality of your skin, diminish pimples and acne, reduce skin dryness, enhance the skin’s elasticity and tone and slow down the aging of the skin. (via Brit + Co)

4. Salmon and Tuna: Salmon is good for the heart due to its high contents of Omega-3 fatty acids. These acids are great for the skin too; they reduce redness, inflammation and acne, prevent scaly skin and act as moisturizers by releasing natural oils. (via Cosmopolitan)

5. Leafy Greens Vegetables: Leafy greens are packed with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that protect your skin cells and stimulate their growth, which is what will make your skin wrinkle- and damage-free. As an added bonus, antioxidants protect your skin from the sun by shielding your cells from the damaging effects of the rays. (via Brit + Co)

6. Grapefruit: Grapefruit are rich in lycopene, another powerful antioxidant that is effective in protecting your cells and fighting the free radicals that come from the sun’s UV rays and pollutants. (via Style Craze)

7. Lots of Water: If you stay hydrated, wrinkles are less likely to form as your skin is plumped up and moisturized. If you struggle with drinking water, try some fruit and herb-infused H2O to get some extra flavor. (via Brit + Co)

8. Hemp And Flax Seeds: These tiny seeds are a powerhouse of essential fatty acids, such as Omega 3, and are filled with protein, making them one of the top superfoods for glowing skin! Eat them as a snack or sprinkle them on salads or sandwiches to help protect against wrinkles and sun damage. (via All Women Stalk)

9. Papaya: Not only is it delicious, papaya is also a great food to eat for overall health. It’s packed with fiber, folates and antioxidants and loaded with vitamins. Chop some up and add it to your granola or yogurt for a healthy breakfast. (via All Women Stalk)

10. Sweet Potato: The humble sweet potato is packed with antioxidants which replenish your skin’s natural supply, fighting off free radicals that damage cells and can cause premature aging. Try throwing this veggie into a variety of recipes, like tacos and salads. (via Poor Girl Eats Well)

11. Berries: Deeply colored berries such as blueberries and cherries are loaded with antioxidants, which help your body fight off blemishes. (via Fitness Magazine)

12. Green Tea: Green tea fights acne due to its ability to lower levels of an acne-producing hormone. This power drink is also packed with antioxidants, which will help your skin look younger and healthier overall. (via Best Health Mag)

13. Carrots: Carrots contain vitamin C which aids collagen production in the body; collagen is a type of protein that helps prevent wrinkles and slows down the aging process. Meanwhile, the included vitamin A attacks free radicals to prevent wrinkles, pigmentation and an uneven skin tone. (via Style Craze)

14. Avocados: Whether you eat it or apply it, avocados are a powerful fruit that do wonders for your skin. Avocado oil penetrates deep into your skin, leaving it well-cleansed, nourished and baby-soft. Their antioxidants help eliminate wrinkles giving your skin a youthful glow. (via Brit + Co)

15. Cucumbers: Cucumbers contain a ton of the daily required vitamins and minerals your body needs + these edible powerhouses will help trim your waistline, nourish your internal health and brighten your complexion. (via Beautylish)

The only thing better than spending two hours with your favorite fictional characters? Spending 7 hours with them! Cruel Intentions (you know, the 1999 classic starring Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Phillippe, and Selma Blair) is turning 25 this year, and Prime Video is releasing a brand new TV show inspired by the movie. And the series has a fresh twist that will keep even the most dedicated Cruel Intentions fan on their toes. Here's everything you need to know about the show!

    Where can I watch Cruel Intentions TV show?

    Cruel Intentions Release Date

    All eight episodes of Cruel Intentions drop on Prime Video November 21, 2024. That means you can watch them all in one sitting (and then watch them again...and again) or you can spread them out over Thanksgiving week. Is there anything better than watching a new TV show with a cranberry cocktail? I think not.

    Did they remake Cruel Intentions?

    Cruel Intentions Plot

    Yes, the Cruel Intentions TV show is a remake of the 1999 movie! This new adaptation takes place at a prestigious college in Washington, D.C. Step-siblings Caroline Merteuil and Lucien Belmont are determined to stay on top of the food chain — especially after a dangerous frat hazing threatens to eliminate the school's Greek Life. The best way to keep the sororities and fraternities on campus? Seduce the most unexpected sorority sister: Vice President's daughter Annie Grover.

    While I've been keeping up with all the buzz surrounding Demi Moore's The Substance, and definitely understood it was THE feminist movie of the fall, I remember opening X in mid-October, seeing an unhinged photo of Margaret Qualley as Monstro Elisasue, and thinking to myself, Wow, apparently I do not know what this movie is about.

    If you're in the mood for a new, edgy horror movie that you can watch anytime of year, then do I have good news for you: The Substance is streaming now! Here's everything you need to know about the flick, including how to watch it this weekend because it will definitely make a great Halloween movie.

    • The Substance is streaming now, but it's also still available to see in theaters following its September 20 release date.
    • The movie follows an actress supposedly past her prime who takes matters into her own hands with a powerful serum called The Substance.
    • The cast includes Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, and Dennis Quaid.

    Where can I watch The Substance 2024?

    The Substance Release Date

    The Substance is streaming on Mubi and is available on Fandango at Home. You can also see the movie in theaters now. The Substance premiered on September 20.

    What is The Substance movie about?

    Mubi

    The Substance Plot

    In Coralie Fargeat's new movie, Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore) is a used-to-be A-lister who's horrified when studio head Harvey (Dennis Quaid) fires her from her own fitness TV show. (The audacity!) When she learns about The Substance, a new drug that promises youth and beauty, she immediately buys in.

    A single injection and suddenly she's Sue, a twenty-something (played by Margaret Qualley) who's exactly what Hollywood is looking for. There's just one rule: you can only spend a week in each body at a time or things go very, very wrong.

    Who's in the cast?

    The Substance Cast

    The cast of The Substance includes all-star names like Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, and Dennis Quaid.

    What is the meaning behind The Substance?

    Mubi

    The Substance confronts all the different pressures placed on women: to look young, to act mature, to constantly reinvent yourself. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, writer-director Coralie Fargeat explains how Margaret's Monstro Elisasue "represents the monstrous part that we try to hide so much because we feel that we can't adapt or fit."

    The end of the movie, in which (spoiler!!) Elisabeth basically melts into a pile of flesh on top of her Hollywood Walk of Fame star, frees her from any and all expectations. "It’s the first moment where she’s able to love herself. It’s the moment she sees herself and it’s not disgust, but in fact it’s as if she’s seeing her true self for the first time," Coralie says. "There’s self-indulgence, tenderness. It’s the first time she looks at herself in the mirror and doesn’t criticize herself. She decides, okay, I’m going to go out there, this is me, I have my right to have my place in the world."

    According to some menu leaks and rumors surrounding the Dunkin' holiday menu, a new lineup of drinks and snacks will become available starting November 1, 2024.

    The famed foodie account, @markie_devo, broke the news about the Dunkin' holiday menu leak first.

    Does Dunkin' have holiday cups?

    Yes, Dunkin' has holiday cups! They'll be available on November 1, once the holiday menu drops. The coffee chain posted a sneak peek of the holiday cup design on their Instagramon October 31. It appears the Dunkin' holiday cups have designs of donuts, peppermint candies, ornaments, and more. The color scheme is mostly white, orange, and pink!

    Drinks On The Dunkin' Holiday Menu 2024

    Dunkin'

    NEW! Holiday Cookie Signature Latte

    This festive new latte is made with brown sugar cookie and toasted almond syrups and topped off with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, and a scoop of cookie butter crumbles. Sounds like a totally sippable dessert to me!

    Dunkin'

    NEW! Brown Sugar Cookie Oat Iced Chai Latte

    Allegedly only available to order through the Dunkin' app, the Brown Sugar Cookie Oat Iced Chai Latte sounds like it'll combine brown sugar cookie syrup with oat milk and chai to usher in the holiday season. Based on previous menu offerings, you should be able to get this drink iced or hot.

    Dunkin'

    Peppermint Mocha Latte

    The Peppermint Mocha Latte is a classic when it comes to the Dunkin' holiday menu, so I'm not surprised it's returning this year. This bev features peppermint and mocha syrups, espresso, and milk, topped with a hefty serving of whipped cream, mocha drizzle, and hot chocolate powder. Bring it on!

    Dunkin'

    Toasted White Chocolate Latte

    No shade to Starbucks, but their rumored holiday menu for 2024 kind of broke my heart when I saw the Toasted White Mocha from years past wasn't coming back. Luckily, Dunkin' is filling the void with their Toasted White Chocolate Latte: a sweet, white chocolate-filled sip topped with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, and cinnamon sugar topping!

    Dunkin'

    White Hazelnut Bark Coffee

    Available hot or iced, this coffee is prepped with a Dunkin' toasted white chocolate swirl, hazelnut flavoring, and cream. Any seasonal drink that has nutty notes wins in my book!

    Dunkin'

    Spiced Cookie Coffee

    Another reported "in-app only" drink joining the Dunkin' holiday menu, the Spiced Cookie Coffee will likely also be available to order hot or iced. I expect this bev to taste just like a snickerdoodle cookie!

    Dunkin'

    Cookie Butter Cold Brew

    I am so excited about this cold brew drink coming back for the holidays at Dunkin'. The Cookie Butter Cold Brew is made with brown sugar cookie syrup and topped with cookie butter cold foam and a scoop of cookie butter crumbles for extra crunch. Stay tuned, because there's a sweet snack joining the menu to match!

    Dunkin'

    Toasted White Chocolate Coconut Cold Brew

    This rumored app-exclusive cold brew will include notes of white chocolate and coconut – I need it now.

    Peppermint Mocha Hot Chocolate

    This anticipated app-only sip nixes the expected espresso for a very chocolatey (and peppermint-y!) effect.

    Snacks + Food On The Dunkin' Holiday Menu 2024

    Dunkin'

    NEW! Hash Brown Brisket Scramble

    Dunkin' has tested a number of breakfast Scrambles over the years, which is why I'm not totally shook by this food item coming to the holiday menu for 2024. This iteration will feature hash browns, scrambled eggs, shredded brisket, smoked cheddar cheese, poblano peppers, caramelized onions, and of course, a rich Texas queso.

    Dunkin'

    NEW! Almond Croissant

    The holiday menu will also bring the Almond Croissant to Dunkin's breakfast lineup. It's a butter croissant filled with chopped almonds!

    Dunkin'

    Cookie Butter Donut

    Yep – I need this in my belly ASAP. The Cookie Butter Donut is packed with a cookie butter filling, slathered with maple-flavored icing, then dipped in a delish speculoos cookie topping (tastes just like Biscoff cookies)! Sweet treat, anyone?
