Is strawberry juice good for your face?

My mom said it was and so I just rubbed a strawberry all over my face, I don't know if it works yet, but it smells soo good! I was just curious if anyone else had done it and what their results were.
Is strawberry juice good for your face?
possibly.

i believe it's an AHA - alpha hydroxy acid.

%26amp; i know those are supposed to be good for your face.

Reply:It's full of vitamin C and flavonoids (antioxidants), but also full of sugars. I can't imagine that it's particularly good for your face, but it might be fun to do.



Vitamin C and flavonoids are antioxidants and could, theoretically, stop cells in your face from oxidizing (aging, dying, etc.). On the other hand, vitamin C is an acid, and can be a skin irritant. What's more, it's very unlikely that you'll have the strawberry juice on your face for the 50 straight years it would take to prevent enough cell oxidation to make a difference. The sugars in it are also simple, and thus eaten very quickly by bacteria-- If they get into your pores, they could very well aggravate acne.



However, I highly recommend strawberries for anywhere that they can be licked off. Oops, is that appropriate?
Reply:Cucumber is astringent. Also tastes good.
