Your mom likely loaded your plate with broccoli as a kid, and there's a good chance you weren't such a huge fan of this green veggie back in the day. Hopefully, your tastes have changed as an adult, as broccoli is actually pretty darn awesome for your health. It's full of fiber, vitamin C, potassium, and vitamin A, just to name a few. Thanks to all the nutrients in broccoli, it makes sense that it could have some serious skin care benefits. Luckily, you don't have to eat broccoli to reap these benefits. You just have to apply it to your skin. Here, our favorite skin care products formulated with broccoli.
