Eucerin Skin First July Update: Bring on the Blueberries! {Giveaway} CLOSED

Sharing is caring!


Every month I encourage you to take the Eucerin Skin First Pledge. And I won’t stop reminding you just in case you haven’t yet taken the pledge to keep your skin healthy!  Eucerin is back to let you in on a little secret about one of my favorite fruits to bake with, blueberries!

Did you also know that July is National Blueberry Month? This wonderful fruit is a great source of antioxidants which are important for your skin and other vital organs. In addition to helping protect your skin from the sun by using an SPF, avoiding the mid day sun, and wearing protective clothing, there are many other ways to proactively keep your skin healthy. Eating right, exercising and getting enough sleep also help promote healthy skin. Since your skin is the barrier for all of your other organs and the body’s first line of defense, it makes sense that you should feed it the proper nutrients.

If you’re going to a cookout or any type of summer event, consider bringing a bowl of fresh blueberries as a dessert. Not only are they delicious, but they’re rich in antioxidants, substances known to fight free radicals that can wreak havoc on the skin. In addition, don’t forget to pack Eucerin’s Everyday Protection Face SPF 30 and Body SPF 15 Lotions. They are great options for everyday use and lightweight.

And, if you want to indulge, here is a delicious blueberry pie recipe from Better Homes and Gardens that you can prepare in just one hour this summer.

And if you are like me and love a good blueberry orange bread, try out this one from my baking blog, Oh My! Sugar High that I recently posted!

Eucerin would like to know how you enjoy blueberries and offer one of my readers this awesome prize package to help you enjoy  your own blueberry dessert!

    My family of five boys, husband, puppy and yes even a bunny all agree on only one thing.. Every Sunday we have a very large breakfast which includes Choc. Chip pancakes, blueberry and strawberry pancakes topped off with whipped cream. We even have found that the puppy and bunny will even eat the pancakes. Between blueberries, strawberries and bacon.. That is eaten more than even ice cream in this house. On Sunday morning, try cooking this.. It bonds our family and has made for a dry happy and close family. :0)

    Blueberries are one of my favorite fruits and I like them plain with a little cream, in a cobbler, on my cereal, in pancakes and in a sweet bread.

    Take one off the bush, pop it in my mouth. Please note, I only do this off my Grandma’s bushes. She does nothing to them (fertilizers or pesticides) so it’s okay.

    My favorite way to eat blueberries is in my Mother’s homemade blueberry pie! She makes EVERYTHING from scratch and it comes out SO delicious! Unfortunately, her “baking” gene didn’t get passed down to me! LOL!

    I like blueberries fresh from the bush, picked in my garden, completely organic and SO fresh and tasty! Love my blackberries too. BTW, I read once that if you are making blueberry muffins that if you coat the blueberries in flour before putting them in the mix that they won’t sink to the bottom of the muffins so much (like they look like they did in the picture that has me drooling!)

    I’m allergic to Blueberries- and the ironic thing is, I was born and raised in Maine.
    Blackberries are quite close in flavor,, and I’m also able to eat elderberries, which taste almost like them, si I’ve been told-
    I usually make a mixed fruit salad, which is quite a refreshing summer treat.

    I’m not a huge fan of blueberries.. unless they’re fresh off the vine and have been in the fridge long enough to be firmly cool. Then they’re a favorite! No pancakes, muffins, pies or jams for me please, just simple, whole fruit!

    My favorite way to use blueberries is in pancakes! There is nothing like whipping up my homemade batch of sour cream pancakes (for ultra fluffy pancakes, of course!) and popping plump, juicy blueberries into the bubbling batter. Once flipped and cooked, all these pancakes need are a dusting of powdered sugar and a help-yourself-style of whipped cream and maple syrup. Pancakes deliver that perfect flavor of juicy blueberries in a warm and fluffy vehicle. I never have a problem gathering my closest group of friends for blueberry pancakes and mimosas on a Sunday morning!

    Last summer I had an overabundance of blueberries. SO, I decided to try to make blueberry jam!!! OMG, it is wonderful. Everyone that has tasted my blueberry jam wants a jar!!! Matter of fact, I have got to get off this computer because I have a pan of blueberries to prepare for the next batch!!!

    I love my very berry granola in the morning or my blueberry orange parfait. For the Tutty Fruity Granola, I mix 1/2 cup of either plain or fat free vanilla yogurt with 1/4 cup banana, 1/4 cup apple, and 1/2 cup blueberries and then mix in 1/4 cup lowfat granola (I love Bear Naked’s Lowfat Vanilla Almond). For the parfait, I layer plain greek yogurt mixed with a bit of sugar and orange zest with orange segments and blueberries with a bit of granola sprinkled on top. So good and wonderfully light breakfast options to get a great start to a better day and better you!

    i’ve always LOVED blueberries since i was little. for the the past 20+ years there has been 2 blueberry bushes in my nanny’s backyard. every year those guys give us lots of berries! anyway i used to always make a batch of blueberry crisp with the first pick, but this season i heard of something else, and i just had to try it. blueberry pound cake french toast! words cannot explain how amazing it is. you just make your favorite pound cake recipe, add some blueberries. cut that up into slices and soak it in a milk/egg/vanilla/cinn mixture and fry it like you would french toast. when i first had it, there was a blueberry glaze over it, but whip cream does the job!! also, this might just be me, but as the cake got colder, the tastes became very…distinguishable. you could really taste the pound cake as well as the french toast taste!! this is my all time favorite recipe FOR SURE!

    My daughter found a recipe for blueberry cookies. I didn’t think that would come out, but she insisted on making them.

    They were SO GOOD! That is now my fave way to eat them. My husband usually makes blueberry pancakes, and I have made blueberry muffins. But I have to say I like the cookies over them both.
