As a working Mum of three and still breastfeeding our darling baby I’ve been in the trap that I know so many of you can relate to of the cycle of wake/work/wash up/repeat. Every month when I light my incense, press the long-hold button on my Nespresso machine (flat white on oat with a side of Miracle Collagen) and take stock of the month that was there’s always something to be grateful for.
For me, it was coming out of a COVID infection more determined than ever to put health and wellness smack bang where it belongs - at the top of my to-do list. This has meant I’ve finally put exercising as a daily non-negotiable (even just a short walk some days counts), and did that meditation course I’ve always wanted to do, but been too busy for.
At our IMBIBE HQ in Byron Bay our team has been in full swing. We’ve welcomed new members, served complimentary Iced Vegan Collagen Coffees in our showroom (please come and visit us), and set our plans for 2022. It’s going to be our biggest one yet and we are absolutely so excited.
Slide into your favourite fluffy slippers - it’s time to look back on the month that was.
IMBIBE WOMAN: Sara
After working for over a year to formulate our newest product, Vegan Collagen finally arrived. The refill pouches are coming this week which we are super excited about.
We profiled our beautiful face of the campaign, Byron Bay local Sara in this IMBIBE Woman feature.
VEGAN COLLAGEN LAUNCH PARTY
The scene was set for the most gorgeous intimate evening celebrating the launch of our Vegan Collagen with a candlelit dinner at the Bangalow Flower Bar.
The Vegan Collagen Launch was hosted by Emily Yates and held at the beautiful Flower Bar Co. in the little country town of Bangalow, NSW.
Sesión Tequila designed our cocktail menu. Espresso Martinis with Vegan Collagen and Mocha Tequila, and Conscious Cocktails made with Beauty Renewal and Blanco Tequila.
An Italian-inspired vegan feast was catered by Scarpetta Byron Bay, served in stunning Studio Medea sculptures and vessels.
IMBIBE Cotton Vanity bags were filled with goodies from St Tropez Tan, Saint Valentine Jewellery, Allpress Espresso, Eye Of Horus Cosmetics, and of course IMBIBE.
THE SEX EDIT
V-Oil was the third product we created in the range and is a cornerstone of our range: For Women, By Women.
This year, we pulled together our inaugural Sex Edit, where we featured our libido loving, arousing V-Oil with complimentary Vanity Bags.
We’ve sent these packs all the way to Norway and the Netherlands from our Byron Bay HQ and could not be prouder that we’ve made our product discreet and sexy.
THE BEAUTY MUSHROOM
I took some time out of my day to sit and chat The Beauty Mushroom - what it is and why we use it in our newest product, Vegan Collagen.
Also known as the Giver of Eternal Youth and Beauty; move aside; we’re drinking it.
In this short video I explain what this Beauty Mushroom is, how it works - and how it’s way more than just for skin health - and why we’ve included it in our new Vegan Collagen.
DIY SKIN AND HAIR CARE
We vowed to take a little more time for ourselves this year. And while it’s not always easy, the benefits of a daily 20 minute walk, stretching, connecting with your body, reading a good book before bed rather than being on your phone, and carving out time for self-care rituals are immense.
These de-stressing activities help slow down the ageing process, improve sleep, increase immunity, help you bounce back faster if you do get sick, aid with digestion and gut health, and boost your mood.
For some “me-time” inspiration, we crafted 3 easy DIY recipes for luscious hair, radiant skin, and even skin tone. The best part? They can all be made using ingredients from your pantry or fridge.
So, darling, this is your sign to put your phone on silent, and take some time for YOU.
