Brides! Drink this For RADIANT SKIN on Your Wedding Day!

Updated: Nov 8, 2023

Brides! If you want radiant skin on your wedding day, drink this shake! I drink a smoothie every day. Not just any smoothie though! It has a super skin ingredient in it. Maybe you know it? Collagen. Collagen is a protein that plays a crucial role in maintaining the structure, elasticity, and hydration of your skin, as well as the health of your hair, nails, joints, and connective tissues. As you age, the production of collagen naturally decreases, leading to various signs of aging such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and joint stiffness. This is why collagen is often associated with helping you look younger:

  1. Skin Elasticity and Hydration: Collagen is a major component of the skin's extracellular matrix, which provides structural support. It helps maintain the skin's elasticity and suppleness, contributing to a more youthful appearance. Collagen also helps the skin retain moisture, which is essential for maintaining a hydrated and plump look.

  2. Reducing Wrinkles and Fine Lines: The decline in collagen production over time is a key factor in the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. By supplementing with collagen or using collagen-based skincare products, some individuals may experience a reduction in the appearance of these signs of aging.

  3. Firmer Skin: Collagen supplementation has been suggested to promote the synthesis of new collagen fibers, potentially leading to improved skin firmness and texture.

  4. Hair and Nail Health: Collagen is important for maintaining the strength and health of hair and nails. Adequate collagen levels can contribute to stronger, more vibrant hair and less brittle nails.

  5. Joint Health: Collagen is a major component of cartilage, which cushions and supports joints. As collagen levels decrease, joint health can be compromised, leading to stiffness and discomfort. Supplementing with collagen may help support joint function and reduce the risk of age-related joint issues.

It's important to note that while collagen supplementation and topical products may provide some benefits for skin health and appearance, their effectiveness can vary from person to person. Additionally, a balanced diet rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, along with a healthy lifestyle that includes proper skincare, hydration, sun protection, and regular exercise, also contribute significantly to maintaining a youthful appearance. As with any dietary supplement, it's recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating collagen supplements into your routine, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or concerns.


Here is my Berry Juicy Skin Recipe:


Ingredients:

  1. 1 scoop of collagen powder (unflavored or a flavor of your choice)

  2. 1 cup of almond milk (or any milk of your preference)

  3. 1/2 cup of frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.)

  4. 1/2 ripe banana

  5. 1 tablespoon of nut butter (almond, peanut, or any other)

  6. 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

  7. 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract

  8. Vanilla Flavored protein powder I love this one

  9. Ice cubes (optional, for thickness)

Instructions:

  1. Place all the ingredients in a blender.

  2. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, you can add a bit more milk.

  3. Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or maple syrup.

  4. Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately.

Remember, collagen powder can sometimes have a mild taste, so the berries, banana, and nut butter in this recipe should help mask any potential flavor. Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other ingredients like spinach, Greek yogurt, or chia seeds for an extra nutritional boost.

Be sure to wait for a half an hour before eating, after having your collagen to ensure absorption.
