From lavender-scented body patches to vitamin-packed health drinks, your clients will be surprised to learn how many ways there are to be healthy. Sell these immunity boosters and supplements and your salon will be a hit.

Pomphenol Sunguard supplement from Murad boasts an antioxidant-rich formula that contains ellagic acid, which is derived from pomegranate extract. For protection against free radical damage, simply take one tablet a day.

Opus Skincare presents Beauty Scoop, its edible beauty accessory with safflower and canola flower lipids, and vanilla crème flavor. Simply add one packet to a beverage for youthful skin, shiny hair, and stronger nails.

The I Booster Spray from Buddhanose offers invigorating essential oils of clove, cinnamon, lemon, and ravintsara in the form of a body mist. Anti-viral and antibacterial, the spray bolsters against colds and flu.

Nestlé presents Glowelle, a daily beauty drink that moisturizes and protects skin with antioxidant vitamins, phyto-nutrients, and botanical and fruit extracts. It contains the same amount of vitamin E as 108 almonds and vitamin C as 11 tangerines.

Naturopatch’s Aromatherapy Body Patches provide relief from coughs and colds with its biocompatible gel adhesive that releases essential oils throughout the day. It comes in eight different scents from Rose Geranium to Tea Tree.

Take two capsules daily of Nude’s Detox Food Supplement to clear the skin and re-energize the body. Chlorella, holy basil, and turmeric work to support the liver while licorice, ginger, and probiotics help equalize hormones.
