Youth To The People Age Prevention Superfood Cleanser + Kale cocktail

Throw on your kale sweatshirt (admit it, you have one) and get ready to pamper with the IRL thing. Youth to the People Age Prevention Superfood Cleanser taps kale, spinach, and green tea for loads of antioxidants to fight the environmental damage that ages skin. Its gentle cleansing power removes dirt and toxins without drying, visually plumping with a soothing gel formula.

Think of this libation as the after-dark version of your morning green smoothie. Mix up the cocktail after washing your face to get a one-two punch of leafy green goodness.

Kale cocktail

Ingredients
1.5 oz. organic vodka
1 oz. kale juice
1 oz. pineapple juice
½ lime, juiced
Agave, to taste
Sea salt
1 lemon slice, for garnish

1. Rim a martini glass with sea salt and set aside.

2. Pour vodka, kale juice, pineapple juice, lime juice, and agave into a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until mixed.

Farmacy Honey Drop Lightweight Moisturizer with Echinacea GreenEnvy™ + Echinacea tea

If parched skin is your problem, rehydrate with Farmacy Honey Drop Lightweight Moisturizer. This antioxidant-packed skin-quencher fights fine lines and provides a burst of hydration, leaving skin instantly plumped and soft.

Here's how: Each jar is infused with Echinacea honey, a natural humectant solely made by the bees from Farmacy’s exclusive farm, and created when they pollinate Echinacea GreenEnvy flowers. The potent dose of antioxidants works to fight the environmental damage that ages skin, while hyaluronic acid locks in moisture. (You can also use the coordinating Farmacy Honey Potion face mask for double the effect.)

Cap off your night with a steamy cup of Echinacea tea (sweetened with honey, of course) to maximize the youth-boosting effects. The purple petals of the Echinacea flower are also thought to bolster the immune system, heal the digestive tract, and reduce skin inflammation—so you can feel really productive even during your Netflix binge.

Echinacea tea

Ingredients
1-2 tsp dried echinacea
1 small slice fresh ginger
½ lemon, juiced
Honey, to taste
