Vida Glow - Beauty Cleanse Lemon & Lime
Vida Glow’s Beauty Cleanse was created to alkalise the body and skin, as well as eliminate toxins. It adds an extra dose of highly bioavailable plant nutrients whilst cleansing to assist in detoxification. The skin is the largest organ of elimination, and daily intake of Beauty Cleanse during a structured healthy eating plan gives the skin support via an abundance of antioxidants and specific ingredients designed to assist the removal of acid and toxic build-up.
Beauty Cleanse not only targets the skin but also supports the colon, liver, small intestines, kidneys and the stomach - the major organs, which work hard during the cleansing process. It contains an array of vitamins, phytochemicals, alkalising, natural pre & probiotics and mineral-rich nutrients all derived from real, organic plant food.
