supplements

*Special thanks to Walmart & ShopStyle for sponsoring this post!

I’m going to be honest, up until a few years ago, I didn’t take supplements. Sure, I would take the occasional multi vitamin or vitamin C tablet when I was sick, but at the time I didn’t realize how vital good supplements can be for your body. Fast forward three years & here I am, supplement obsessed!

Now let me just start by saying that I’m obviously not a licensed professional & can only share my personal experience with these supplements. Always check with a doctor before starting new supplements, especially if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. Okay, now that I got all of that out of the way, I am excited to introduce you to a new supplement brand that I am absolutely LOVING!

I was introduced to EVOLUTION_18 by a couple of my blogger friends & I couldn’t wait to get my hands on some of the products. I particularly was ecstatic to try the collagen products because I can tell the biggest difference in my nail, skin & hair when I’m not taking collagen supplements. I’m lucky enough to have a Walmart around the corner from us now so I stopped in & picked up quite a few of their products to try out. Honestly, it was hard to choose which ones I wanted to try first but I decided to start with the Beauty Hair and Nail Growth Gummy with Biotin and Keratin, the Collagen Peptide and Protein Powder and the Probiotic Beauty Blend Quick Melts. You better believe that I opened up those gummies in the car to see how they tasted & guys, they taste incredible! But taste aside, I really wanted to see the affect these products had on my body, so I started taking them regularly to see if I noticed any results. I’m going to break down these products below for you guys & let you know the benefits of the supplements & how I use them/how I feel about them!

Beauty Hair and Nail Growth Gummy

These delicious gummies are filled with a powerful combination of biotin and keratin for thicker, healthier hair and stronger nails. I don’t know if any of you have struggled with your nails being incredibly weak & peeling but it can be frustrating to say the least! Plus, I have very thin hair & color it on top of that so I need all the help I can get in the hair department! I’ve been taking 2 gummies daily & have been loving them so far. Keep in mind that results won’t happen overnight (obviously) & with every supplement, it can take a few weeks to really notice a difference, especially when it comes to your nails & hair. But if you’re searching for a supplement to help support healthy nails & hair, I can’t recommend this one enough.

Collagen Peptide and Protein Powder

I am collagen obsessed at this point & had actually stopped taking the last collagen supplement I purchased because I wasn’t noticing any change in my body. I have been using this powder in my smoothies daily, but you can also mix it with 8 oz of water because it’s unflavored. This powder is made to support skin, hair and nails from collagen peptides & has added protein to nourish your muscles, support brain function and leave you feeling satisfied. With 14 grams of protein, this is the perfect addition to my favorite smoothie! I figured this would be the perfect time to share my favorite smoothie recipe with you guys too. Forewarning, it’s very simple but tastes absolutely delicious!

Daily Smoothie:

– 3 strawberries

– ½ of a banana

– 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk

– a handful of spinach or kale (or a mix of both)

– 1 packet of stevia

– 1 scoop of EVOLUTION_18 Collagen Peptide and Protein Powder 

Probiotic Beauty Blend Quick Melts

“Beauty starts in your gut. With 10 billion live cultures, this quick melt made up of vital bacteria and essential prebiotic fiber, makes it easy to nourish your guy for a healthy microbiome and in turn, clear and beautiful skin.” If that description alone doesn’t make you want to incorporate this product into your daily routine, then I don’t know what will! In my opinion, probiotics are so important & I genuinely believe all of us should be taking them regularly. These quick melts make it easy to get your daily dose because they come in a convenient packet that you can carry around in your bag & have on hand wherever you are, even when traveling. They are a win-win!

So those are the products I have been using regularly but I am very excited to also try the Beauty Bubbles Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid Tablets (such an easy way to get your collagen in for the day & hydrate your skin because of the hyaluronic acid) as well as the Beauty Glow Capsules with Collagen (I know, I am collagen obsessed). I love that you can find EVOLUTION_18 products in-store at Walmart or online at Walmart.com & that they are in an affordable price range. I can’t recommend this brand enough & couldn’t wait to share them with you all! Check out all of the products below!
