Detox Winter Wellness

Posted by Fianna O'Donoghue on

This Winter, boost your immunity and get your skin looking and feeling its best with our full range of Bestow beauty products that aid beauty from within with the use of organic super foods to nourish your skin. 

The designer super-food blends include bio-available phytonutrients, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids. Ingredients across the range include cold-pressed virgin flax-seed oil, wheatgrass, blackcurrant, alfalfa, coconut, kelp, spirulina, hibiscus, cinnamon, licorice, slipper elm and ginger to name just a few.

Bestow products are primarily food-based and designed to be incorporated into food because this makes the nutrients more bio-available and better absorbed by the body. A skin that is well fed from within has the nutrients and EFA’s it requires to produce soft, clear, glowing skin. Bestow Beauty products lay a vital foundation for beautiful skin.


Whether you want to add to a dash of Bestow Powder to your breakfast muesli or kick-start smoothie (try the delicious recipe below) - make sure you add Bestow to your wellness routine today! Pop in store or give us a call to get yourself started!

Bestow Kick-Start Smoothie (via the Bestow website)

A breakfast smoothie is a delicious way to kick-start the day nutritionally and super-easy to make. This smoothie recipe includes protein to sustain your energy throughout the morning. Naturally, it includes the Twin Skin Essentials (Bestow Beauty Oil and Bestow Beauty Powder) and you can also add any other Bestow blends you are using.

White beans are an amazing way to provide your smoothie with a creamy texture and a protein hit. Adding protein to a smoothie allows your body to stay full for longer and using beans is a skin-friendly way of doing this. Many protein powders and other protein products that are used in smoothies are congesting to the skin and just 1/4 cup of white beans provides you with the protein you need without causing you to break out. Creaminess is essential to a tasty smoothie and we find avocado is one of the best ways to do this as well as providing a serving of healthy fats for your body, keeping it full for longer. The chia seeds in the smoothie are bound to keep you full providing the body with fibre to help with gut health.

Recipe:
250 ml of liquid (such as water, coconut water, almond milk or coconut milk)
1/4 cup of cannelini beans (drained)
1-2 medjool dates (or 2 teaspoons of honey or rice syrup)
1/2 frozen banana
1/4 of a ripe avocado (optional)
1 tablespoon of Bestow Beauty Oil
1 dessertspoon of Bestow Beauty Powder
1 good handful of spinach leaves
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
6 fresh mint leaves (optional)

Blend well, enjoy!
