Episode 248: Food As Medicine For Your Face with Guest Ashley Terry of Grace Holistic Skin

Are you dealing with acne, dark circles, or fine lines? Has your skin lost its glow? Want to simplify your skincare routine? Tune in to hear Ali and Becki interview Ashley Terry of Grace Holistic Skin. As an esthetician, Ashley’s focus is on nourishing the skin from within and using a food as medicine approach to heal common skin concerns. Learn why Ashley recommends ditching the constant SPF, how gua sha can support lymphatic drainage and what to do when a zit pops up the day before a big event! 

In this episode Ali and Becki pick Ashley’s brain about all things holistic skincare. Learn why oil cleansing can balance your skin, why you shouldn’t be washing your face so often and why wearing sunscreen all day every day might not be the best idea. Plus hear which of Ashley’s amazing skincare products we have been loving recently and what supplements she recommends for glowing skin.
