The pair suggest \"eating the rainbow,\" for an antioxidant-rich diet.

\"Antioxidants fight free radicals, which can cause acne and even premature aging in the skin,\" Bowe said.

Feller recommended foods like fruits, vegetables and whole grains, which she described as \"incredibly antioxidant rich.\"

\"Some of my personal favorites are broccoli, asparagus, berries -- low sugar, antioxidant rich, just super delicious,\" she said.

Both Feller and Bowe also suggest adding in healthy fats, such as avocados, salmon and extra virgin olive oil.

\"Nuts and seeds are an excellent source of the polyunsaturated fatty acids,\" Feller explained. \"Those are the good for you, heart healthy fats and they're fantastic for your skin.\"

Bowe hailed them as \"beauty boosting fats, because they actually help ... trap moisture in the skin and they dial down inflammation.\"

On the flip side, she suggests avoiding too much sugar because it can \"ramp up inflammation in the skin and can lead to breakouts and loss of elasticity.\"

\"Sugar is lurking in things like pasta sauces, salad dressings,\" Feller said. \"The general recommendation is no more than six teaspoons of added sugar for women and nine teaspoons for men.\"
