Celebrity Celery Celebration Green Juice
Celebrity Celery Celebration Green Juice
There’s something extremely off-putting about drinking your vegetables, but anything that touts unscientifically proven results of getting skinny makes it worth trying, right? And no, I don’t need Kylie Jenner’s approval (even though I really want it). In all honesty, I’m happy the juice cleanse fad has been reined in and we can use drinks like these to supplement our diets and make us feel good. I like to guzzle this right when I wake up on an empty stomach, because it activates my intestines into doing things we classy ladies like to pretend we never, ever do.
