I've had acne most of my life. I really hoped that it will last only the teen years. On my 16th birthday I thought that it will be over soon, the same on 18th, 20th...
I tried to not to use makeup, tried to use the natural cosmetics and also I've used massively cheap makeup products. There wasn't a difference, it was obvious that the problem isn't from the 'outside'.

My doctor suggested to use hormonal medicine, but it seemed too harsh to mess with hormones just to get rid of pimples.

I used to follow a cabbage soup diet (don't do this!) and then my skin cleared perfectly, but that diet plan doesn't work on along term.

So long story short, I found out that the big reason is DAIRY products. And I love latte, yoghurts, cheese, milk, butter, cottage cheese, did I mentioned latte? We use so much dairy in our diets in Latvia, it's almost impossible to go to a normal restaurant and get something without dairy. And also I'm a bit struggling to change my diet, because I'm too lazy to cook long hours, so now I'm trying to experiment a lot with simple recipes.

One of my favorite morning smoothies is this banana-blackcurrant mix with rice milk.

So all you need is a banana, blackcurrants (they are extremely rich with antioxidants) and rice milk or whichever vegan milk you prefer.

Put all these ingredients in a glass or blender. If you want a sweeter taste, honey is a great addition.

And I'm really lazy.. :)

Also you can froze banana and blackcurrants before blending, then you will get more like a ice cream stucture.

Do you have your favorite vegan smoothie?

Cheers!
