Winter is here... and in Paris, the season is synonymous with cozy wool sweaters, morning warm porridge and comforting drinks. As you may know by now, I am passionate about food and it's impact on the skin, so I am always looking for nourishing ingredients for my morning potions and to add into my meals. I’m most excited about adaptogens, which are traditionally valued for supporting overall vitality. One of my favorites to use for glowing skin specifically is Sun Potion’s Pearl Powder - it’s rich in zinc and antioxidants.
"Pearl powder is a source of minerals including calcium, zinc, iron, selenium and amino acids. It’s also rich in antioxidants, and is traditionally valued for supporting radiance." - Sun Potion
I created this recipe to be able to sip on in the morning or at any time of the day, giving my body good nutrients to start the day. This recipe contains macadamia nuts, which are a great source of vitamins, minerals and fats, including monounsaturated fatty acids. This drink also contains Acai powder, which is rich in antioxidants. Its high concentration of vitamins A, C and E also makes it a popular choice for skin radiance. Baobab powder is full of minerals, calcium, phosphorus, zinc and essential fatty acids.
