Super B (300PV)
Super B is a B complex supplement that is great for maintaining healthy energy levels, supporting mood, heart health and mental clarity. Our current lifestyles often leave our adrenal system (our fight or flight response) on overdrive, and B vitamins are a great way to give them some TLC!
- B vitamins are essential to our health and well-being, and each B vitamin performs a unique and separate function. B vitamins are water soluble so must be replenished daily.
- WHO SHOULD USE SUPER B?
- Anyone under stress, as it depletes B vitamins in our bodies
- Anyone who battles candida. Some believe a lack of it causes overgrowth.
- Anyone who needs energy. It nourishes our adrenals and combats fatigue.
- Anyone struggling mentally and emotionally, a deficiency can be linked to many anxious, exhausted, dark feelings and thoughts.
- Anyone who struggles with anemia, is pregnant, or doesn't eat a strong whole food diet. While we DO NOT need folic acid which is all over our processed foods and grains, we do need folate which is what you will find in this whole-food supplement.
- Create a daily stress-less protocol:
- Take 2 Super B Tablets in the morning (or one in the morning and one around noon).
- Apply the Adrenal Love (Stress Recovery) Serum over the lower back morning and evening:
- Roll EndoFlex over the front of the throat (thyroid) and lower back (adrenals) morning and evening. Simply add a roller top to the bottle!
- Drink 2-4oz of NingXia Red daily. Make it fun! Mix it up with some kombucha, coconut water and/or sparkling water.
- Consider adding Progessence Plus Serum to your routine.

Charcoal Mask (190PV Loyalty Rewards orders)
- When you're pampering and detoxing your skin with a mask, the last thing you should have to worry about is harsh, synthetic ingredients!! Made with Tahitian volcanic black sand to gently exfoliate for softer, glowing skin, activated charcoal and a blend of ethically sourced kaolin clays, this mask will lift dirt and oil, purify pores, detox skin, and help restore the appearance of an even skin tone.
- For oily, combination, and normal skin:
- Cleanse face with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser; then apply a thin layer of the mask to clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–20 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Follow with the rest of your skin care routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use 1–3 times per week.
- For dry and sensitive skin:
- Apply a thin layer of the mask to a clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–10 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Your skin will likely feel dry after rinsing, so promptly follow with the rest of your skin care routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use as needed or as a spot treatment.
- Create a skincare and true self-care ritual:
- Add a calming blend to your diffuse (Lavender, Tangerine + Patchouli is a great one!)
- Turn on a gentle fan or space heater to make the environment comfortable.
- Take time to wash your face, then apply the Charcoal Mask.
- As it sits, brush and floss your teeth (10/10 recommend Thieves AromaBright Toothpaste and Dental Floss), apply some Lavender Hand & Body Lotion, or some CBD Muscle Rub to the tense areas of your neck and shoulders, drink some water, and take your Life 9 Probiotic.
- Use warm water to remove the mask, then apply a moisturizer like CBD Beauty Boost or BLOOM or your desired moisturizer.
- Finish with lip balm and your favorite sleep roller (Tranquil is a fan fave!).
