VitaCup, the first ever vitamin-infused Coffee & Tea Pods On The Market

Many of us forget to take our vitamins, but not many people forget to drink their coffee or tea. That’s why VitaCup, the first ever vitamin-infused coffee and tea pods, are on a mission to make consumer’s lives easier. With brewer-compatible coffee and tea, many will be able to eliminate  the need to take vitamins in the morning.

VitaCup pods are Keurig-compatible and are made with high-quality ingredients, 100% Arabica coffee beans and premium tea including Matcha and Moringa. Each pod is infused with an essential vitamin blend which includes: B1, B5, B6, B9, B12, D3, and antioxidants, all which helps to boost your energy level, increase your metabolism, and enhance your mood.

All pods are 100% recyclable, BPA free and eco-friendly, so you not only feel good about what you’re putting into your body, but also about what you’re putting back into the planet. Additionally, VitaCup is a part of non-profit Vitamin Angels, in which they’ve joined the fight to end global malnutrition. 2% of all profits go to mothers and children under 5 years of age who are at high risk due to lack of food availability.

Beautiful skin is just a “tub” away

Lotion, lotion and more lotion!! This winter it seems that the use of lotion has increased. With snowy winter & even here in Florida with the humidty, skin gets extremely dehydrated. With MIO Future Proof Active Body Butter dehydration is no more!

MIO Future Proof

MIO Future Proof

Future Proof is made with free-radical fighting antioxidants, oils and vitamins. These help aid in giving off strong, smooth firm skin while giving off a beautiful glow. I find the best places to apply it are on your heels, your legs after you shave and your elbows. If you apply here right after you get out of the shower, then the moisture will set into the skin leaving it velvety soft. Nothing feels better than having smooth beautiful skin. This thick, rich lotion not only makes your skin feel great but will give off a long lasting scent. Smells amazing!

Workout swipes

Workout swipes

Not only does MIO carry body loving products but also sweat wipes that are perfect for your gym bag, school bag etc. MIO Clean Slate workout wipes are free of parabens, synthetic fragrances and glycols. Clean slates help aid in banishing post gym breakouts. So next time you tend to “smell” yourself and it may not be the best check out those wipes. For more info on MIO check out mioskincare.com
