Hi everyone! Maria here from Spinach for Breakfast! I think I found my staple summer recipe! I absolutely love fruit, but during this pregnancy I just can’t get enough! I put a spin on my traditional bowl of fruit salad and added mint and lime for a super refreshing flavor. Plus mint has so many health and skin benefits. It is said to contain antioxidants, anti-inflammatory agents, and can help with digestion. It is also said to help clear skin bacteria, soothe skin, and even reduce pimples.
I’m currently using Odacité’s Mint + Green Tea Hydra-Purifying Treatment Mist to hydrate my skin and prevent any breakouts this pregnancy. It’s working wonders!
