This orange veggie makes me think of fall feasts. After reading up on it, it makes me think of smooth skin too.

Butternut squash is the way to go if you want to nourish your body -- and your face. It works from the inside out, suppling pH-balancing compounds and vitamin A, a must-have for healthy skin.

Butternut nutrients work wonders: They keep the skin's balance on the acidic side (this keeps bacteria away) and promote cell turnover -- no dry, rough, scaly skin for butternut eaters. This squash also protects from the sun and fights wrinkles with beta carotene and vitamin C.

Got a feast coming up? Go butternut squash. Want smooth skin? Ditto.
