Alcohol is generally bad for your skin. Overconsumption can dehydrate your skin, causing it to appear dull and aged.<\/p>\n

It can also cause other skin problems like rosacea, a condition that is characterised by a red puffy appearance on your face.<\/p>\n

But taking alcohol does not always damage your skin. It can actually improve your skin health.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m talking about red wine.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s full of antioxidants called polyphenols such as resveratrol that not only benefit you on the inside, but also make your skin glow and slow down aging.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not saying you indulge in multiple glasses of red wine every day. Take more than the recommended daily maximum and you easily reverse any skin benefits.<\/p>\n

The key is moderation.<\/p>\n

A small glass of red wine with dinner is just enough<\/u><\/a> to supply all the antioxidants you need for a glowing skin<\/a>. For a visual guide, stop pouring when the wine reaches the widest part of a standard wine glass.<\/p>\n

In this quick buying guide, we review the best red wines for the skin, from those available to buy online in the UK.<\/p>\n

How we chose the best red wine brands for skin<\/h2>\n

We picked red wines that have high levels of flavonoids<\/strong> (the largest group of polyphenols) such as resveratrol, catechins and quercetin.<\/p>\n

These antioxidants come mostly from the grape skins used to make the wine.<\/p>\n

For a stronger dose of resveratrol and other antioxidants, pick red wines that are made from thick-skinned grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah.<\/p>\n

We also went for drier wines with medium alcohol content. They contain less sugar, which is better for your skin.<\/p>\n

Dry wines also tend to have higher levels of antioxidants compared to sweet wines like port.<\/p>\n

Finally, we picked sustainably produced wines made with grapes that have few to no pesticides.<\/p>\n

If you can find a bottle of organic dry red wine, that\u2019s the best one for your skin.<\/p>\n

Remember to drink with moderation. A standard 750ml bottle should last an entire week.<\/p>\n

Top Rated Red Wines For Skin Reviews<\/h2>\n

1. Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon Wine<\/h3>\n<\/a>\n

CLICK TO CHECK PRICE ON AMAZON<\/a><\/p>\n

Cabernet Sauvignon wines are typically high in resveratrol and fall on the drier side of the scale, making them perfect for the skin.<\/p>\n

At 13.5% alcohol by volume (ABV), the Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon is a medium-alcohol wine. It\u2019s not too sweet nor is it too strong.<\/p>\n

The wine has a strong cassis and black cherry flavour with a discernible background of coffee and dark chocolate.<\/p>\n

It pairs well with meat-based dishes, especially red meat. It also goes great with mature cheese and dishes flavoured with herbs.<\/p>\n

The wine is produced in the Maule Valley wine-producing region of Chile.<\/p>\n

This particular case has a vintage of 2014 (when the grapes were harvested). The case contains six 750ml bottles.<\/p>\n
