Collagen Beauty Elixir Recipe
Has anyone ever tried drinking rose water before? In the beauty world, I’ve certainly seen it in creams and perfumes, but drinking it was all new to me. I went to a health and fitness event a few months ago where they were serving rose water in lieu of regular water and was immediately inspired. It was so different from any other healthy drink that I’ve tried before and the faint smell of rose was so refreshing! Pink drinking water? Sign me up!
As soon as I got home, I went to work and did some research. I found that rose water helps boost your metabolism, contains antioxidants, vitamins A, C, E, and B and can benefit your skin (acne, eczema, etc). Mixed with collagen, this drink will do wonders for your skin! We’ve talked about collagen before in one my previous posts and that taking it daily prevents and reverses aging, improves digestion, and strengthens hair and nails. Vital Proteins Marine Collagen is easily dissolvable in water and is tasteless, so I had to add it in this beauty elixir. I also found that rose water drinks are becoming more popular due to its health benefits, so make a batch and have it ready in your fridge for a fraction of the cost of what other companies are selling it for.

Collagen Beauty Elixir Recipe
What you’ll need:
- 10-16 ounces of distilled water
- 1 scoop of Vital Proteins Marine Collagen
- A few dashes of drinkable rose water
- Ice
Mix the Vital Proteins Marine Collagen in enough warm water to dissolve it. Once dissolved, add the remaining water, ice, and the rose water. The collagen beauty elixir should turn out pink if you decide to make your own rose water with red rose petals. The red rose petals will dye your water pink.
Enjoy!
