D’Amazonia is offering women beauty and wellness in a cup! The UK-based tea brand is targeting women’s health and wellness with its newest tea offering. Collagen supplements are some of the hottest health and wellness trends having established an enviable reputation for combatting joint stiffness and supporting good skin health. Collagen makes up 80% of human skin keeping it supple and taut, a welcome counter to premature wrinkles that tops up one’s skin elasticity. D’Amazonia’s new collagen-themed Beauty Tea supports smooth supple skin and joint stiffness.
According to D’Amazonia founder, Marcela Tupinamba, “Functional teas are deliberately tasked with offering so much more than great taste and refreshment. Our Beauty Tea specifically responds to the reality that as we age our body not only finds it progressively synthesise collagen but also repel inevitable free radicals (Sun’s UV rays, manmade pollution, the tribulations of passive smoking…) that accelerate the speed at which our inbuilt collagen levels deplete.”
D’Amazonia’s Beauty Tea contains Chinese green tea, Chinese white tea, collagen peptides, hibiscus, turmeric, moringa leaf, rosehip, apple pieces and blackberry leaves — all the usual ‘hero’ ingredients typically found in any well-balanced and nutritionally adept hot beverage. However, it is worth noting the presence of moringa leaves, which were used by ancient Greeks, Romans and Indian Mauryan warriors to boost energy and strength prior to battle. Known by many to come from the ‘miracle tree,’ moringa leaves are packed with calcium, iron, essential B-vitamins, vitamin C, potassium, and magnesium.
Each Beauty Tea pack contains 20 tea bags made from 100% biodegradable materials. The Beauty Tea is available beginning 24 May.
D’Amazonia’s Beauty Tea launches on the heels its Menopause Tea, which hit retail in February.
As women, we navigate through various stages of life, each presenting its unique challenges and triumphs. One significant phase that many women experience is menopause, a natural transition marked by hormonal changes that can bring about a range of physical and emotional symptoms. While menopause is a natural part of aging, finding effective relief from its symptoms has been a long-standing concern for many women as there are many complexities of menopause.
Menopause typically occurs in women around the age of 45 to 55, although the exact timing can vary. During this time, the body undergoes hormonal fluctuations, leading to symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, insomnia, and more. While menopause is a natural process, its symptoms can significantly impact a woman’s quality of life and overall well-being.
Recognising the need for natural and effective relief from menopausal symptoms, D’Amazonia embarked on a mission to develop a product tailored to women experiencing this transition. Drawing inspiration from the rich biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest and harnessing the power of herbal remedies, the brand formulated its Menopause Tea.
Its unique blend of nine natural ingredients carefully selected for their efficacy in helping to alleviate menopausal symptoms include hibiscus to help support cardiovascular health, rosehip with its anti-inflammatory properties, passionflower leaf for calming properties and hawthorn to help lower blood pressure, each ingredient is chosen for its specific properties that target common menopause-related issues. Other ingredients include sage, with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties is effective in combating hot flashes and improving mood swings and chamomile which is renowned for its calming effects. Chamomile helps promote relaxation and improve sleep quality, addressing insomnia often associated with menopause.
“From Day.1 our primary goal was to be a vocal advocate for best-in-class hot beverages that offer a mesmerising mix of lingering flavours, aromas, and deep-rooted, healthier living benefits,” said Tupinamba. “We started out with a digestive brew, a health and wellness beverage, and a superior sleep tea in 2021. Therefore, it made perfect sense that our fourth recipe tackled yet another mass-market ailment.”
Each fully recyclable pack of Menopause Tea contains 20 biodegradable pyramid tea bags that can be used, not once but twice. Additionally, D’Amazonia’s alliance with One Tree Planted charity means a tree is planted for every order made.
D’Amazonia’s Menopause Tea and Beauty Tea both have a MSRP of £12.00 per pack and are available at Amazon, Selfridges, and Daylesford Farm.
