SUPERFOOD SMOOTHIE: Get To Know Blue Majik Both Inside and Out
Graydon, founder of Graydon Skincare utilizes Blue Majik in her skincare routine and also in the kitchen. She says, "in my opinion, Blue Majik is the superfood of all superfoods!"
Here's Graydon's Superfood Smoothie recipe that inspired Berry Rich Face + Eye Cream:
"Whenever I need an energy boost, I combine nutrient-rich Blue Majik with frozen, Canadian, wild blueberries and coconut yogurt for a hit of probiotics. To this base, I add frozen sliced bananas, a drizzle of Canadian maple syrup, a small chunk of dark chocolate, a few drops of vanilla and half a cup of water. Sometimes I’ll toss in a scoop of plant-based protein too."
PERFECT PAIRINGS: Personalizing Your Skincare Routine
Graydon products are designed to work together, which means you can confidentially mix whichever products work best for your skin.
When it comes to mixing Berry Rich Face + Eye Cream, try Graydon's Soothe + Hydrate Skin Smoothie. One pump of Berry Rich Face + Eye Cream, 1–2 drops of Moon Boost Serum and 1 spritz of Face Food Mineral Mist mixed in the palm of your hand before applying.
This combination hydrates and nourishes the skin. You can also mix a half pump of Berry Rich Face + Eye Cream with a half pump of Super Sensitive Skin Stuff Face + Eye Cream to really amp up the hydration and skin barrier protection.
Berry Rich Face + Eye Cream can be used morning and/or night. It should be applied to freshly cleansed skin after applying a serum (if using one). When applying Berry Rich around the eye area, gently tap the product into the skin using your ring finger.
