Beauty is more than skin deep. Adding certain vitamins and minerals into your daily diet can help improve your hair's shine, your skin's radiance, and your overall confidence.

So what foods should you integrate into your diet to stimulate and enhance your natural beauty? Here are the top ten "Super Foods" for your hair and skin:

1. Wild Salmon; strengthens and encourages growth
2. Organic Eggs; shines and strengthens
3. Lentils; Strengthens and encourages growth
4. Collard Greens; supports natural conditioning agents
5. Flax Seeds; prevents hair loss and encourages growth
6. Olive Oil; prevents hair loss
7. Greek Yogurt; encourages growth
8. Grass-Fed Beef; prevents graying and hair loss
9. Almonds; shines and prevents hair loss
10. Quinoa; reconstructs, strengthens, encourages growth

I like to make a simple smoothie that combines the health benefits of these vitamin- and mineral-rich ingredients with other healthy ingredients that, together, taste delicious. A "Super Smoothie."

Bruce Fisher's "Super Smoothie"
1 Large Organic Peach
6 Organic Strawberries with Stems
One handful of fresh parsley
1 tbsp. Flax Seed
10 oz. Water

Blend together with your desired amount of ice and enjoy...the smoothie and the skin!

Women are often inspired to change their hairstyle. They are inspired by celebrities and models, by fashion trends, and by the season.

But, while any stylist can duplicate a haircut from a picture clipped out of a magazine, whether or not that cut will be flattering on you is largely dependent on the shape of your face.

So what is the perfect shape for your face? I found this InStyle article, 'Get Hollywood Hair: Find the Perfect Cut for Your Face Shape' to be a great starting point.

The reason I say it's a great starting point is because there are other factors that need to be considered before going under the shears. Your personality, for one. And your lifestyle, for another. A skilled hair stylist will know how to translate a flattering cut into a flattering cut that also fits with your personality and lifestyle.

How much time and effort are you willing to spend on your hair each day? How are your skills with a blow dryer or a flatiron? What kind of products are you comfortable with? If your stylist isn't asking these questions, you need to answer them on your own.

If you're looking for a new hairstyle, yes, the shape of your face is important. But no more or less important than being matched to your personality and lifestyle.
