Cactus water
Cactus water may sound a little hard to stomach, but it’s actually made from the prickly pear superfruit and tastes completely delicious (with no prickles in sight!). As with other plant-based waters, it’s naturally low in calories and sugar and contains vital vitamins, minerals and naturally occurring electrolytes to replenish and revive. However, the real game-changer with this one lies in its wealth of betalains. These are powerful antioxidants that are infamous for their skin revitalising and detoxing benefits. ‘So?’ you might be thinking. Well, the prickly pear cactus is the only fruit that contains all 24 known betalains, so if you’re looking to save your skin from the inside out, cactus water may well be the natural way forward. A natural cleanse and detox for the new year.
