Margot Robbie drank milk thistle tea for Barbie like glow, know all about this tea

Even after the release of Barbie movie, people's current obsession with all things Barbie is witnessing a massive boom. Well, people are also wondering about the secret behind Margot Robbie's doll-like skin. Skin health specialist who was hired to help the cast of the Barbie movie has revealed the secret and it has nothing to do with facials.

Jasmina Vico, a London-based facialist and skin health specialist, was tasked with achieving the perfect doll-like skin for the cast of the movie Barbie.

Vico revealed that she took a holistic approach. Her plan involved not only external treatments but also internal care to achieve that coveted glow from within. She focused on optimizing the liver's function and calming the nervous system, which she believed would contribute to the overall skin health and radiance.

To help with liver cleansing and promote skin radiance, Vico introduced the cast, which included Margot Robbie, America Ferrera, and Emma Mackey, to milk-thistle tea. This beverage is popular in her native country of Croatia and is known for its potential benefits in supporting liver health and providing antioxidants.

What is milk thistle tea?

Milk thistle tea is a herbal infusion made from the dried seeds of the milk thistle plant (scientifically known as Silybum marianum). The milk thistle plant is native to Mediterranean regions and is widely cultivated for its medicinal properties.

The key active compound in milk thistle is silymarin, which is a mixture of flavonolignans known for its potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Silymarin is believed to be responsible for many of the plant's therapeutic benefits, especially in supporting liver health.

Milk thistle tea is prepared by steeping the dried seeds or crushed seed powder in hot water, similar to other herbal teas. The resulting infusion has a slightly bitter taste, and some people prefer to sweeten it with honey or other natural sweeteners.
