Watered down...

Have you seen all the water-related beauty products out there? I am all about hydration so I am super curious if any of these work...Anything to get all my BGNDers drinking more water.

The two "beauty drinks" most intriguing are:

1 - Glowelle (by Nestle)


Glowelle is touting itself as your skin's needed dietary supplement to help nourish and moisturize from the inside out. It contains Vitamins A, C and E plus some other proven anti-agers. It comes in pre-packaged beverages or in the those handy little packets you add to your own bottle of water and in Natural Raspberry Jasmine or Natural Pomegranate Lychee flavors. All in all seems like a pretty good product. However, I can only find it on ebay or at Neiman Marcus. And yes I love water and I love the idea of a new product to make my skin glow but only available at limited places and for more than I would like to pay...hmmm...

2 - Crystal Light Skin Essentials (by Kraft)



This is the more accessible of the "beauty drinks" out there. Sold wherever Crystal Light is, this product has very similar ingredients to Glowelle (vitamins A, C and E etc...) but only comes in the powder to add to your own water. The flavors here are a bit more exciting as well - Pomegranate Lemonade and White Peach Tea. Not backed up by the fancy marketing of Glowelle, this product seems just as good just for less coin.

All in all I am intrigued but not sold on these beauty drinks. Do they work because of the ingredients or just because you are drinking more water? Do they work at all? And is it worth the investment?

My vote is to buy these if you need inspiration or a real helping hand in getting your water intake to where it should be on a daily basis. For me, I will wait till I get a coupon and then report back. But for now, I will be sticking with basic H2O.

Keep looking fabulous,
BGND
