Behind every superfood elixir is a superhero group of ingredients. When creating The Glow Up, we wanted to focus on making a product that put flavour first and could be enjoyed daily! From gut lovin’ goodness to natural mood-enhancing nootropics and your daily dose of Vitamin C, this elixir has it all.
Butterfly Pea
The star of the show. Harvested in Thailand, butterfly pea flower is a mood-enhancing botanical and natural nootropic which means that it can potentially help improve cognitive function. It is high in EGCG and antioxidants, which are known to increase feelings of happiness and reduce anxiety and insomnia.
Blackcurrant
Rich antioxidants are what gives this beauty berry its deep purple hue. Blackcurrant is also high in vitamin C, which supports skin health and protecting the brain from stress. Fun fact: You can get your daily recommended dose of Vitamin C by enjoying just 20g of blackcurrants (be careful though, they’re more tart than you might think)! They’re also a good source of soluble fiber, meaning this berry will also support and soothe your digestive system and gut health.
Rose Petals
Enjoying the floral flavours of rose is our favourite way to channel our inner goddess. The rose petals in The Glow Up are micro-ground, which allows for maximum absorption of the benefits in the body. Similar to blackcurrant, rose petals are also high in Vitamin C! The Vitamin C in rose petals also plays a role in skin protection, as it’s directly involved in skin and collagen formation, so you can really get your glow on.
Hibiscus
The high mucilage content of this powerful botanical is what helps to enhance the skin's ability to retain moisture, which is a key factor in keeping that glowing complexion. You’ll be saying hibisc-yes when you start seeing the benefits of increased collagen production, elasticity, improved skin texture after enjoying this ingredient.
Just like you, this drink is ever-evolving: it ranges on the pink, purple and blue colour spectrum in various pH levels. Tag @itsblume on the ‘gram so we can see how you’re incorporating it into your hydration ritual!
