Detox water may be a trend that was accelerated and popularized by Miranda Kerr and the Kardashians, but today it is endorsed by most wellness enthusiasts. When we say wellness we are referring to a holistic approach that incorporates both your gut and skin health. Detox water, also known as infused water, is basically water fortified with fruit and vegetable wedges and slices along with herbs, vegetables, or spices to provide you with the nutrients and benefits of these superfoods with every sip.
Here are 4 delicious and soothing recipes that you might want to try the next time you pray for beautiful and glowing skin.
Hydration rush
It’s no secret that hydrated skin = happy skin. Speaking of hydration, what’s better than cucumbers that contain up to 96% water. Trust the cucumber infused detox water to keep you hydrated. Add some crushed mint leaves and lemon wedges for a touch of flavor. Just add a sliced cucumber to a glass full of water with a handful of mashed mint and a sliced lemon and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours. What you drink afterwards is a pleasure!
Berry treat
Tick off your daily dose of antioxidants by making yourself a glass of berry detox water that looks good and tastes better. Cut some strawberries into slices, take a cup of raspberries and a pomegranate and add them all to a glass of water. Mix it together and chill. Each fruit has its properties – raspberries are rich in antioxidants, pomegranate is rich in vitamin C, and strawberries are packed with anti-inflammatory properties. All in all, it’s a powerhouse of nutrients for your skin.
The glow booster
Boost your skin’s radiance, glow and eliminate dullness by adding this detox drink to your daily diet. Use lemons and chia seeds as the main ingredients for this drink, which is high in antioxidants and vitamin C (thanks, lemons). Chia seeds have anti-inflammatory properties and also help fade the appearance of spots for smooth, healthy skin. Put two sliced lemons and a cup of chia seeds in a glass of water and let rest in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 hours. That’s it.
PS: You can also add pineapple slices to this.
Apple detox
The apple detoxifier made from apple slices and cinnamon is the perfect detox drink to soothe an irritated bowel and skin. As? The combination targets and eliminates the toxins in your colon for a fresh, clean and happy colon. A non-toxic bowel leads to detoxified skin. This drink is ideal for people who suffer from acne, pimples, and unruly skin due to their eating habits. No, it doesn’t mean you can keep eating what you want and trust this drink to solve everything, but it definitely helps. Combine an equal proportion of apples (cut into slices) and cinnamon sticks, ie. Put 2 apples and 2 sticks together in a vessel with water and bring to the boil. Then let it cool down and enjoy the water. You can also chill this for a day or two.
