When it comes to health and wellness, we all know hydration is key. In fact, experts say that every single cell in our bodies requires fluid to function properly.
That's why we're resolving to up our water intake (and keep a water bottle on hand) in order to reap all kinds of health (and beauty!) benefits in the new year.
I, myself, struggle to drink a lot of water. I constantly remind myself that if I don’t drink a lot of water, there’s no point in investing in expensive products because beauty starts from within and hydration is the key to healthy & glowing skin.
I’ve been seeing this water bottle on the internet being carried by A-list celebrities like Gisele Bündchen, Alessandra Ambrosio, Blake Lively, Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Alba, Jennifer Garner (and more), then I got obsessed with it as well!
Of course, what makes this bottle extra special is that you can snap a lip balm on its cap. The cap included when you purchase the bottle is just the regular cap, but you can buy a specialized compact cap where you snap the lip balm.
The Kiss Kit, a French rose-scented BKR Paris Lip Balm housed in a translucent compact is also sold separately, so if you don't own a BKR bottle, you can still enjoy the formula.
Having a cute water bottle is a good way to convince yourself to drink more. I know it sounds crazy, but carrying this water bottle makes me excited to have it out and fill it up constantly. I love carrying it around or just seeing it sitting on my bedside table. It is something I am thrilled to look at and use everyday. More and more, I find it's less important for me to have lots of things, but have items that I feel good about using and looking at and, since using my BKR, I really do drink a lot more water.
They have also released your personal apothecary on-the-go for all of your necessaries: supplements, meds, mints, gummies, hair ties, jewelry, or anything else you need with you and don't want to forget about. Just like Kiss Kit, but the compact comes empty. Teeny tiny storage, but make it fashion.
About the Founders
Ten years ago, the two intelligent, fashionable, and beauty obsessed women who believe that hydration should always be at the top of our beauty routines did not want to drink plastic, cheap , disposable water. They wanted to drink from something clean, clear, soft and beautiful. And alas, BKR was born!
Tal Winter and Kate Cutler—a pair who, according to their website, “believed in La Dolce Vita, in love and in themselves … they met for sushi dates, spa days and weekend trips to Palm Springs.” were clearly onto something.
They are both obsessed with beauty, so they decided that they were a beauty brand. That's why BKR is sold in beauty stores, not in the kitchen or home goods stores. It is definitely a beauty essential!
It seems like everywhere you turn in Manhattan, yet another chic woman is carrying a BKR. And celebrities can't get enough of their BKR.
