Update On My Life and Your Tea Tiny Tea Teatox!

Hi guess what.
I'm still alive.

Sorry for the lack of posts (for about 4 months!) I've been on a bit of a hiatus to get my life together. If you guys don't follow me on social media (YouTubeTwitter, etc) I recently took up a new major in Biology, so now I'm a double major student! Cue the late nights and ramen.
I was a bit overwhelmed with all the unnecessary drama in my life, so I quit my job, took up yoga, and ditched all the petty social life-related drama in my life. It's an understatement to say that I'm in a happy place right now.

Along with my fresh start, I decided to try out a detox. I wasn't sure how I felt about juice cleanses, since you wouldn't be able to eat or drink any thing but juice during the period of time.

A) I don't think my parents would be very happy about that
B) I don't want to pass out from hunger during class
C) It's the end of the semester which means exams and assignments. I need my energy.


I heard about Your Tea through Instagram (ps follow me at littlemissjuliana!) and there were many success stories of their most popular tea, the "Tiny Tea Teatox" which reduces bloating, increases digestion, improves your skin and amps up your energy levels. I also liked how you didn't have to ditch regular foods, unlike other juice cleanses. I decided to try out their 14 Day Tiny Tea, and I'm on Day 4 today.

First of all, I would like to clarify that I'm not drinking this to lose weight, but to lose excess water weight and to get more fluids in my body. I have always struggled with my weight, and now instead of thinking "I want to be skinny", my mantra is "I want to be healthy". I've started to eat cleaner and healthier too. This tea obviously won't work in slimming down your figure if you'll stuff yourself with your daily McDonalds whilst drinking this tea.


The packaging is heaps cute. Pink is probably the answer to every girl's heart.
Some people say that the taste is a bit weird. I usually add a squirt of honey in my cup of tea, but I'm fairly used to the flavour cos my mum always makes Asian teas and medicine and other herbally stuff.

You're supposed to have this tea 30 mins before or after every meal. It says two a day but it's apparently a typo- it's supposed to be three cups a day. I usually make it in my Lilly Pulitzer thermal cup and have it on the way to uni, and have breakfast when I get there. One downside is, every now and then I might oversleep and skip breakfast entirely, so I'm still unsure as to whether or not I should still drink it on an empty stomach.


I've already noticed that my stomach is a bit flatter and I'm less bloated. I'm not sure if it's fully because of the tea, since I've been eating healthy, working out more and drinking more fluids. I also drink a lot less coffee (which I usually put 3 sugars in) and I have a lot of energy from this tea.


So far, I'm really liking it, and I'll do a full review on my YouTube channel once I'm finished with the 14 days.
If you watch it per this blog post recommendation, be sure to let me know in the comments of that video!
See y'all soon xxx
