And when we don't get seven to eight blissful hours of beauty rest, our skin most certainly pays the price. We look puffy, our dark circles seem worse and our overall radiance factor plummets.
Enter ReBloom Beauty Sleep Drink, a new beauty enhancing drink you sip 30 to 60 minutes before you want to fall asleep. Developed by Jonathon Bunt, a former energy-drink executive who found his fiancée's Ambien affinity disturbing, the all-natural drink could be a viable solution to our dreaded sleep issues.
"My girlfriend -- now fiancée -- was really suffering with this choice of either using a drug to help her sleep and worrying about its side effects (she once slept-walked through an airport!), or not sleeping at all and feeling terrible in the morning," said Bunt.
Each little bottle only holds 2.5 ounces (and five calories), so it won't have you waking in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and it tastes pleasantly of chamomile tea. It's not sweet or syrupy or chemical-tasting, and it counts valerian (a well-known herbal sleep remedy), L-Theanine (an amino acid found in green tea), melatonin (one of your body's natural sleep-regulating compounds) and calming chamomile and lavender as its active ingredients.
In the name of better mornings and glowing skin, we're going to give ReBloom, $27.95 for a seven drink pack, a fighting chance.
