Melrose Essential Reds

This is a really great product. Super easy to slip in to your morning smoothies or sprinkle on your cereal. It's packed full of nutrients and makes me feel so healthy every time I use it!! The taste is overall good, if a little earthy for my liking but mixed with bananas and fruit its been a great start to my day and I feel like my skin is glowing after 2 weeks of using this product daily

I loved the bright red colour of the essential reds, they looked amazing in the package and when mixed with water just yelled vitality! The flavour wasn’t amazing, definitely hints of beetroot and I would have loved a bit more flavour but fine in water or mixed with juice. And it’s probably still too soon to see a massive difference but I definitely feel more energised and alert since I’ve started taking these daily.

From the moment I opened the tub I was instantly put off by the smell of beetroot. The pack does says 58% beetroot powder, so really what was I expecting. The taste surprised me with not being over powered by beetroot. My skin does look healthier from when I first started using this product. Only negatives would be. The size of the container is misleading as the amount of product inside is only a quarter of the size of the container. Also there isn't a scoop. Maybe make a smaller container and use some of the excess plastic to make a spoon..

Easy to add to shakes for a great start to the morning. Helps with improving appearance of dull skin.

Not the best tasting product I’ve ever tried. Think I expected it to be more berry like but all I could taste was the earthy flavour of beetroot.

Honestly, I just couldn't stomach it. The smell was slightly off putting for me and the powder in my regular morning smoothie, just gave it a taste that wasn't pleasant. I tried it a couple of times to see if it was something that would grow on me, but unfortunately not.

I wasn't a huge fan of the flavour (very earthy) but it wasn't unpleasant or prevented me from drinking. I haven't noticed any differences in my skin (and would love benefits other than skin or to have some extra vitamins added.). Will continue to use and see if there are any changes with longer use.

This was easy to find at the shops and comes in an eye catching packaging. I was supposed to find the container only half full though! I tried it with cold water first and the taste was very… organic. I tried it in juice next and it was a lot more palatable.

I liked having it daily. I didn’t enjoy the taste of it on its own, but I put it in a fresh juice or smoothie daily.

Earthy flavor powder, preferably used in cold water even with ice to make a normal daily drink. Did taste healthy and didn’t completely dissolve. I did enjoy it and felt my skin was healthy

Have been taken this for more than 2 weeks now, love the taste of it and usually have it in morning mix in with my yogurt. Nice way to take it i think. and feeling skin got the extra glow already.

I was excited to try the Melrose Essential Reds, the first thing I noticed after receiving the product was, that the product comes in a relatively normal sized container, but is only half way filled. So they could even save more package materials and resources. I tried the product for 2 weeks, mainly one teaspoon dissolved in water and it was really hard for me to keep drinking the product each day. When combined with water there were always small particles left which didn’t dissolve, which made the product hard to drink for me, as the particles stayed dry in my mouth and I simply didn’t like it. Even if I tired to use less than a tea spoon the product never dissolved completely. Now for the taste of the product, if you love beetroot it might be a great product for you, I like beetroot, the product mixed with water tasted just like strong beetroot, which made it hard for me to drink every day. If the product was mixed in a smoothie I preferred drinking it. Don’t see skin changes.

Pleasant taste, dissolves easily. Seems to have improved the brightness of my skin.

I was doubtful at the beginning as with all the health supplements. After trialling for 2 weeks if not more, I noticed a positive difference in my skin. It's smoothier and seems more hydrated.

It makes a great addition to my rasberry smoothie/healthy sorbet. I feel energetic all day. And I can also feel difference in my skin as it feel fresh after 2 weeks trail. I also very much appreciate the freshness of the product. But there is less then half quantity in the bottle. Packing is too big. And I also don't like the smell of this. But it works for sure.
