Ive been in Spain for nearly a month now and every time Ive been out in the sun including sun-baking for a fair few hours on the beach, I havent used sunscreen once and my skin hasnt burned once either! Instead I have a nice soft sun-kissed tan (never used to happen to my skin!) and all Ive been doing is drinking juices with carrots, eating mangoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes and greens - all these foods are high in the carotenoids beta-carotene (which converts into vitamin A) and lycopene which both boost the skins natural ability to protect itself against sun-induced damage. This holiday was the perfect test and it worked! Ive also been using organic coconut oil on my skin for extra protection as it has natural SPF. Its so empowering to know that I can follow a healthy high-fruit and veg diet instead of using nasty toxic sunscreen, and actually get a tan
