A Glass of Wine a Day Keeps Sunburn Away?

Just last week we talked about a new study showing milk to be a good sunburn soother when applied directly to your skin. Today I read another interesting article that shows that drinking wine could help you prevent a sunburn.

Instead of grabbing a margarita or mojito at the bar, grab a merlot. Why wine?? Wine contains flavenoids that have been shown to protect skin against UV rays.? Flavenoids are very high in antioxidants, which are very beneficial to your body, but what about when they are added to your skin?

Multiple skin care lines tout grapeseed extract's ability to transform skin, especially aging skin.? Check out these wine-based skin care lines to learn a bit more about their products.
