1. Try an avocado facial for a superfood boost. Packed with vitamins E, A and B, avocados are perfect for protecting skin, removing dead skin cells and the high fat content means moisture is locked in for longer. Also suitable for those with sensitive skin, keep you face hydrated by making your own avocado mask at home. Alternatively for a professional fix try the Avocado Firming Facial at Karkloof Safari Villas and Spa which promises to boost elasticity, suppleness and hydration.
