The Glow Plate by Contour Paris: The Secret to Radiant Skin… Even in the Heart of Winter

When temperatures drop, your skin feels tight, and your complexion looks dull… what do you usually do?

Sure, using rich creams with carefully chosen active ingredients and advanced aesthetic technologies is a great start—it can even lead to spectacular results.

But we often forget the essential: what if your winter glow actually started… on your plate?

At Contour Paris, we support beauty professionals every day. And we see it clearly: beauty nutrition is a powerful ally.

A great skincare routine combined with smart nutrition can transform the skin, making it more luminous, plump, and especially more resistant to cold-weather aggression.

Introducing the Glow Plate by Contour Paris, designed by our experts, featuring the top foods to achieve glow that lasts!

1. The Glow Plate by Contour Paris: Your Beauty Ritual

Want skin that stays fresh, supple, and radiant despite harsh winds, heating systems, and dry winter air?

Here’s the perfect combo: a nutrition-based plate designed to boost glow, detox, fight aging, and reduce redness.

Salmon & Skin: The Omega-3 and Collagen Bomb

You already know: collagen is the pillar of firm, plump skin. But did you know that crispy salmon skin is one of the richest natural sources of easily absorbed marine collagen—and Omega-3s?

Why it’s magic for your skin:

• Omega-3s act like mortar for your skin barrier, reducing Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) and maintaining hydration from the inside.

• They reduce chronic inflammation, which often causes dullness and sensitivity.

• It’s a glow treatment on its own—improving elasticity and reducing fine lines.

Expert tip: Eat fatty fish two to three times a week to saturate your body with these beneficial fatty acids.

The Anti-Inflammatory Sauce That Changes Everything: Turmeric & Piperine

Inflammation = dull skin, redness, visible pores. And in winter, it gets worse.

Our beauty plate includes a powerful anti-inflammatory sauce made with: turmeric, ginger, lemon, olive oil, and black pepper.

The key takeaway: Black pepper contains piperine, a natural compound that multiplies the absorption of curcumin (turmeric’s active ingredient) by 20 times.

Result: A more even complexion, visibly calmer skin, and reduced sensitivity to temperature changes.

⸻

Fennel: The De-Bloating, Detoxifying Ally

Ever woken up with a slightly “puffy” face? Fennel is your go-to decongestant.

• It improves digestion (essential for great skin) and reduces bloating.

• It acts on the gut-skin axis, as poor digestion often shows on your face as congestion or dullness.

• It supports elimination and reduces water retention.

Want to naturally sculpt your jawline this winter? Try fennel in salads or lightly sautéed.

Raw Carrots: Instant Glow, Nature’s Retinol

Beta-carotene in carrots is a precursor to Vitamin A—or retinol.

And retinol means: cell renewal, smoother texture, radiant skin.

The secret: Eat them raw to retain all their nutrients. Pair with an oil (like olive oil from our sauce) to boost absorption.

Bonus: beta-carotene offers mild protection against residual winter UV rays, preserving your skin’s youthful capital.

⸻

Sweet Potato: The Ultimate Anti-Inflammatory

Sweet potatoes are rich in beta-carotene, but they’re especially valued for their low Glycemic Index (GI) compared to regular potatoes.

• Reduce overall inflammation (ideal for acne-prone skin)

• Improve skin healing

• Prevent insulin spikes, helping regulate sebum production

Perfect for sensitive, irritated, or blemish-prone skin.

⸻

Red Cabbage: The Collagen-Protecting Antioxidant

The more vibrant the color, the more powerful the effect.

Red cabbage is packed with anthocyanins (purple/blue pigments), antioxidants that:

• Neutralize free radicals caused by stress and pollution

• Slow skin aging by protecting collagen fibers from breakdown

• Rich in Vitamin K, it enhances microcirculation, reducing dark circles and grayish skin tones

⸻

Tomato & Beetroot: Redness-Reducing, Glow-Boosting Duo

Tomatoes, rich in lycopene, help soothe redness.

Raw beets are ideal for:

• Reducing inflammation

• Boosting blood circulation (hello, healthy glow)

• Enhancing skin radiance

Absorption tip: Lycopene is fat-soluble—it’s better absorbed when the tomato is lightly cooked (e.g. in a sauce) and paired with healthy fats.

⸻

Spinach: Oxygen for Your Cells

Spinach is a powerful source of chlorophyll and iron.

• Chlorophyll helps oxygenate tissues and detox the blood

• This natural energy shot boosts glow, cellular vitality, and skin healing

⸻

Kiwi: The Must-Have Vitamin C for Youthful Skin

No glow discussion without Vitamin C—and kiwi contains even more than oranges!

• Vitamin C is a cofactor essential for collagen synthesis

• Without it, collagen production slows dramatically

Want to:

• Boost collagen production?

• Speed up skin renewal?

• Get a bright, even complexion?

Then kiwi (or citrus) is a breakfast essential.

Beauty Nutrition: What to Eat Based on Your Skin Goals

Contour Paris brings you the guide you’ve been waiting for: how to adjust your nutrition to meet your beauty goals.

For Anti-Aging: Focus on Antioxidants and Healthy Fats

Want smoother, plumper, more protected skin? Choose:

Berries, green tea, red cabbage, citrus, salmon, avocado, and olive oil.

Healthy fats in avocado and salmon act as internal moisturizers, keeping cells elastic and resilient.

Result: Skin that ages more slowly and better retains results from your in-clinic treatments.

⸻

For Maximum Glow: Load Up on Vitamins A, C, and E

Looking for long-lasting radiance? Focus on:

Carrot, sweet potato, kiwi, mango, almonds, spinach.

These foods even out the complexion, improve hydration, and create that coveted winter glow.

⸻

For Blemish-Prone Skin: Go Anti-Inflammatory with Low GI

If your skin flares up, itches, or breaks out, simplify your meals and reduce inflammation.

Eat: turmeric, ginger, raw beetroot, green veggies, chia seeds, and fatty fish.

Pro tip: Cut back on refined sugars and dairy, especially if you have hormonal breakouts, as high-GI foods can trigger excess oil production.

Why Does Contour Paris Talk About Nutrition?

Because beauty isn’t limited to the skin’s surface, in-clinic treatments, or machines.

At Contour Paris, we believe that professionals who understand the skin from the inside out deliver more complete, more precise, and longer-lasting results.

In collaboration with AFEEM, a training academy for aesthetic professionals, we promote a global approach:

High-tech mastery + expert protocols + nutrition education = premium results.

A well-nourished skin is the perfect canvas for our technologies—it responds better, faster, and holds the benefits longer.
