Summers not only bring mangoes but scorching heat and UV rays too. But, mango can help you to fight them. Beta-carotene and vitamin A in mango can reduce the effect of UV rays on your skin. It protects the skin against wrinkles and dullness due to excess sun exposure and also prevents skin cancer.
2. Prevents breakouts
Magnesium and vitamin C present in mango protects the skin from acne & breakouts and, inflammation due to it. But excess consumption may reverse the effects as mango is a fruit with hot potency. And the external application of mango helps to unclog the pores and let the skin breathe.
