If you’re looking for a powerful, natural way to boost collagen and firm your skin, look no further than beets. This vibrant root vegetable is more than just a healthy food – it’s a skin-rejuvenating powerhouse! Used regularly, beets can help your skin look smoother, tighter, and more radiant, without the need for expensive creams or treatments.
Why Beets Are Amazing for Your Skin
Beets are rich in vitamin C, iron, folate, and powerful antioxidants that support collagen production and improve blood flow to the skin. This means better oxygen delivery, deeper nourishment, and that fresh, rosy glow we all love.
Nighttime is the perfect moment to let the skin repair – and with a little help from beetroot, you can wake up with visibly firmer, more youthful skin.
How to Use Beets for a Collagen Boost
1. Beetroot Night Serum (Easy & Natural)
Ingredients:
- 1 small beetroot (raw, peeled)
- 1 tablespoon aloe vera gel
- 1 teaspoon rose water (optional for a calming scent)
Instructions:
- Blend or grate the beetroot and extract the juice using a clean cloth or fine strainer.
- Mix 1 tablespoon of beet juice with aloe vera gel and rose water.
- Store in a small glass jar in the fridge (good for 3–4 nights).
How to Apply:
- Cleanse your face before bed.
- Gently apply a thin layer of the serum using your fingertips or a cotton pad.
- Leave it on overnight.
- Rinse in the morning and enjoy soft, glowing skin. (Note: If you’re worried about staining, you can rinse after 20–30 minutes.)
2. Beet Glow Shot (Inner Beauty Boost)
Drink a small glass of fresh beet juice before bed a few times a week. It promotes skin repair from the inside, thanks to its high nutrient and antioxidant content.
Wake Up with Firmer, Brighter Skin
With regular use, this natural beet treatment can help improve skin tone, support collagen production, and reduce the appearance of fine lines. It’s simple, effective, and 100% natural.
Give it a try tonight – your skin will thank you in the morning!
My In-Laws Didn’t Invite My Children to Family Dinner, Disparagingly Calling Them “Baggage”
Our reader Nadine sent us an emotional letter. The fact is that her in-laws invited the whole family over for dinner, leaving her children out. To make matters worse, her husband knew this and approved of this behavior.
This is Nadine’s letter.
We decided to find out what readers think about this situation. All of them found the behavior of the husband and in-laws offensive.

- If my kids weren’t welcome at whatever function, I wouldn’t go either. © Sandy Freed / Facebook
- I would have left straight away and if my husband didn’t follow, I would have finished my marriage, when it comes to my kids no one wins over them. © Liz Russell Flaherty / Facebook
- I’d ask my hit if he cared about me and the kids. And then I’d leave the restaurant with or without him. © Faye Birkbeck / Facebook
- This happened to us for a wedding. Other kids were there. We drove 3 hours to get there, so we were stuck. That was 40 years ago. I never forgot. © Regina Mason / Facebook
- My children come first, they are not baggage’s … it does not matter if you’re blood or not, kindness should be organic. © M Otto Rittah Rxs / Facebook
- I would seriously consider whether you stay with your husband, as he clearly hasn’t accepted your children. To say that they shouldn’t be at a family gathering because they’re not blood relatives, means he agrees with your in-laws. I can only imagine how your kids feel with their ‘so called’ dad, disowning them in this manner. © James Wood / Facebook
