How To Achieve Healthy Hair, Skin, and Nails

NOTBASIC GREEN SUMMER SMOOTHIE RECIPE:

My secret to a healthy hair, skin, and nails? THIS PERFECT DRINK. When I was figuring out how to incorporate collagen into my morning routine I knew I wanted to make a green smoothie habit out of it. i also kew I wanted it to contain lots of vitamins and taste delicious! I invested a lot of time this summer trying recipes and different collagen’s – We all know how good green smoothies can be for your hair, skin, and nails so I won’t bore you with the nutritional facts, but so I set out to find the easiest and most nutritious early morning nutrient blast and all the gadgets/ingredients that go into it – (recipe and instructions at the bottom)

First recommendation is a good blender!! I know it can get pricey but there are good deals out there, I would recommend Vitamin personally. If you take care of it, you will get a couple years out of it and use it often! I can’t really imagine life without it now!

Ingredients – I have found the sprouts (if you have sprouts in your area) has the cheapest/best quality produce (Especially avocados)! Farmers, and I cannot stress this enough, Markets!!!! The best quality produce! Summer is my favorite season for a lot of reasons but the produce is so fresh and bright. So many fresh and local fruits and veggies to throw in your routine even if you’re not into the green smoothie scene!

Summer is the perfect time to work on cleansing from the inside out. Soak in that sun, hydrate that skin, and revamp your collagen intake!! Take it on the go, sip while you go through your morning routine, or make it whenever you need a pick me up – here’s the perfect beauty boosting smoothie:

(1) Avocado

(1) Banana

(1/2 cup) Strawberry

1 spoon of coconut oil

1 scoop of Vital Proteins collagen

1 scoop Ice

1/4 cup your choice of base (water, almond milk, coconut milk, apple juice, etc.)
