It\u2019s from an amazingly reliable source that contains no antibiotics, hormones, pesticides, preservatives and additives. Seriously guys, in the last month (when I\u2019ve started using it consistently) I\u2019ve had random strangers come up to me many times and say, \u201cYour skin is flawless\u201d. That, and my nails are the longest they\u2019ve been in a while and\u2026get this, my eyelashes are longer too! The last thing might be because I use cold-pressed castor oil as my eye makeup remover\/conditioner (<a title=\"Castor Oil for Long Eyelashes\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1Ohpezm\" target=\"_blank\">this is the one<\/a> I use)\u2026but I sure don\u2019t think that extra collagen hurts. The ultimate beauty supplement.

Everything I could ever wish for in a protein powder. But seriously. OBSESSED.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been reading my blog for a while you will know that I am obsessed with spirulina. Absolutely obsessed. Ever since I started taking it I have not gotten a single cold or been sick. That alone, would keep me as a lifelong spirulina junkie\u2026but that\u2019s not all. I\u2019ve noticed I have a lot more energy, my body is more balanced, and even my skin is better. I\u2019m hooked on this for life. I take it every single day, either in a tablet form or put the powder in my <a title=\"SuperHero Smoothie\" href=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/2012\/06\/11\/superhero-smoothie\/\" target=\"_blank\">Superhero Smoothie<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3904\" alt=\"Every Day Spirulina Smoothie\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/PicMonkey-Collage-510x255.jpg\" width=\"510\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/PicMonkey-Collage-510x255.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/PicMonkey-Collage-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/PicMonkey-Collage.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My favourite brand is the <a title=\"Spirulina\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nutrex-hawaii.com\/estore\/hawaiian-spirulina-new-1000mg-3aday-formula?utm_campaign=colourfulpalatespirulina&amp;utm_medium=promotion&amp;utm_source=colourfulpalate\" target=\"_blank\">spirulina by Nutrex<\/a> because the quality is absolutely top of the line.

However, it\u2019s also great for cleansing the lymphatic system, helping digestion, toning muscles, getting rid of cellulite, stimulating circulation, removing dead skin, strengthening the immune system, and tightening the skin. It kind of wakes you up in the morning, which is one of the reasons I really like it. Mornings and I don\u2019t get along.
