This smoothie has made my hair SO THICK! In one month my hair has looked so dramatically different thanks to this recipe... Thank you Melissa
Do it tastes good?
Ashlin John not really I have to add a lot of lime and ginger to make it palatable for my taste buds, it’s worth it though.
is it really good for skin?🥺
What! I’m definitely gonna give it a try 😃
You followed the exact recipe?
I just made this smoothie this morning, and it is delicious! It's slightly sweet, tart, and refreshing. The only thing I substituted was coconut water for plain water. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
I love that you emphasize the organic. Switching to organic not only helped my weight but my complexion due to the chemicals they spray on fruits/veggies (pesticides, fungicides, herbicides on gmo food) that have synthetic estrogen bases/xenoestrogens. My overall health also improved not just my looks! :)
Pleas do more smoothies/cooking recipes, makeup is nice but it's more important what we put IN our bodies vs what we put ON it, I love you, so excited to try this smoothie out!
Truth is it good?
I make the same green smoothie!! Instead of store bought frozen pineapples my mom buys regular pineapples and then cuts it up and puts the slices in a freezer bag and then freezes it. I also add little orange juice and water. Then I top it off with chia seeds. Its pretty much my evreyday breakfast (:
So you take the smoothie instead of meal?
So, I've tried this 5 times since this video and I love it! I've tried adding turmeric instead of cayenne pepper because I wasn't a huge fan of the spice. The smoothie is really good but I definitely wish I had a juicer to use for it rather than a blender!
Good tip: Heating spinach actually breaks down the oxalic acid (which binds to and blocks some of the nutrients) within so you get more vitamins, protein, calcium plus several other nutrients. Raw spinach is still good for you, you just get way more nutritional value out of heated spinach! :)
Whitney Ann how much do I need to heat? Would 3 minutes steam be enough?
Ana Luisa Lima Yes! You can either steam or sauté it. Once it starts to get that nice dark green color when it looks "wet" or "wilted," thats when that acid breaks down and all the good stuff starts to come out more! :) I love to do this then mix it with riced cauliflower or something else to make it even tastier!
Can you heat it, then freeze it? I wouldn't want to put warm spinach in a smoothie. lol
Won't it get heated in your body?
Whitney Ann thank you for the tip regarding heating spinach before blending. I just bought a bag of pre-washed Baby Kale should I steam them too before making green smoothie
I really admire how you respond to your comments!!! Thanks for the lemon tip, I'll try that!!
Sandra Jefferson I try my best!!! 😘😘
I swear I love it when Kyle comes in 💕💕
Omg and Meekaaaa! 😘😘
👍
So informative! I like how you explained all the ingredients
Not DJ Khaled! It was Rick Ross! "Shout out to all the pears!" Lol, I can't wait to try this recipe
and then the National pear association or something like that tweeted him back, literally died hahaha
Dodger Damn you thirsty
I had this smoothie today and it felt so good to finally put something good in my body. Thanks so much for sharing this! ♡
I'm definitely going to be trying this smoothie out!
Me too
You will love it.
You & I

I think it's inspirational to see makeup artist's also show they care about health and fitness, since all this helps your body and skin. Love this and your gorgeous!!
I can't even explain my excitement for this video! I have green smoothies every morning so it's awesome to switch up the recipe! PLEASE DO MORE!!!!!!
I’ve tried this a few times just for myself. This smoothie is great and tastes so good! I will admit on my first attempt, I added too much of the ginger. But I sweetened it with more pineapple and a banana, it tastes so good!
Just made this!! So good! Omg the dash of cayenne with the lemon is everything! Thank you! Getting me back into green smoothies I fell off the bandwagon for a minute!
Elyse Barnes it happens! I fell of the band wagon a couple time too 😘
never really realized Melissa is short until Kyle stood next to her. hahahaha. soo adorable.
She is 5 ft. tall
You & I yeah she said that in the video.
You & I A Dwarf then?
👍
Isn't it obvious. Look at the cupboard
5 foot girls represent!
I was waiting for this video, can't wait for more health and active type videos!
Definitely like the addition of fitness/healthy lifestyle videos! Recipes, motivation, anything you want to share with us. :)
I love that you went crazy with the ginger, I'm not alone in the world, haha! I add SO MUCH to my juices. I love the little spice it gives! I say 'crazy' because a few of my friends add a FLAKE and think it's too much...I'm like give me a chunk, por favor.
Mariah Leonard I'll use the whole thing of ginger in a single serving smoothie. 😂
Mariah Leonard hahahaha I know!!!! I love it! With lemon and cayenne 👍🏼👍🏼
👍
There are many components to solving excess fat pain naturally. One resource I found which successfully combines these is the Elsu Smoothie System (check it out on google) definately the most helpful blueprint that I have ever heard of. look at all the amazing information .
I've been investigating smoothie detox weight loss naturally and discovered a fantastic resource at Elsu Smoothie System (google it if you're interested)
Yes!!! More smoothie recipes/videos please! I've been trying to incorporate smoothies into my daily routine for breakfast. I'll split one with my daughter.
yes girl I am so glad to see you finally did this video. Moving into the fitness videos let's do this!
I would LOVE more healthy related videos!!!! Especially food!
Omg love love loveeeeee this kind of video of yoursss was eagerly waiting for this onessssss 😍😍😍
Absolutely loving this recipe! Tastes good and amazing for glowy skin! Thanks so much.
That’s why I was wondering why the counter top is so high 😂 you so cute. Loved the video
This is by far the best juice video I've seen on CZcams!! The knowledge you give with every ingredient is key and now I'm on Pinterest looking for that list so I can post it on my fridge. Lol Thanks
Loved the video kinda makes me wanna drink a smoothie! Hope you make more of these!!! ❤️
You did a great job! You were being yourself, which is beautiful. We don't see enough of people being themselves. We have enough followers in the world. So keep being you, and pay the negative comments no mind! Thank you for the info. 👍
I drink green smoothie everyday ...I blend cucumber , apple , cabbage, lemon and corriander leaves
Cabbage ?! That's a new one for me .
I never comment but I love you! You are so real and you don't try hard to be natural! Thank you so much for this and I love you and Kyle's relationship. Keep going girl 😊
Finally!!! green smothie without bananas! :) :)
Whats wrong with bananas?
I can't eat them :}
you can add avocado instead of banana if you want your smoothie to be nice and creamy (: you can't really taste the avocado in your smoothie so that's okay
yes! i feel like banannas overpower the flavour of the other fruits:)
Ikr
Tried it this morning and I loved it! Did a little too much ginger but filled me up this morning. Please post more stuff like this!
Oh my gosh!! Aww I never realized how tiny you actually are until Kyle came in!😆 But loved this video! Nice change of pace :) I vote to keep moving them in every once in a while and maybe make a playlist or something
#snapchatfam🐶❤️
Hey Melissa! Helpful tip: try peeling ginger with a spoon. Seriously, like put the spoon against the edge with the curve facing forwards and scrape towards you (life-changing hack)!
Omg I love this! I used to make a smoothie almost like this but your smoothie looks so much greener, lol. Also, I love how Kyle is out of the frame like in those old cartoons when they would barely show anyone. Don't know if that made sense but it made me laugh lol
Yeah, it would be great a series about this.
I loved this type of video and tbh I trust your judgement on everything anyway x
I have a Vitamix machine and make my green/purple smoothies (cuz I add frozen blueberries) almost daily! Wards off colds n' flu during this time of the year too. ;-)) Thumbs Up!
LOVED THIS!!! PLEASE DO MORE HEALTH/FITNESS VIDEOS. I WILL BE MAKING THIS SOON :D THANK YOU!
Just made this and it tasted really good and refreshing! I work at a chinese restaurant (lots of sugar) and we get to eat there for free so I really needed something like this! Thank you!!! 💕
The one smoothie recipe that doesn't actually sound nasty lol. Definitely have to try it
Since I have the reflux of an old woman, I substitute anything spicy with cinnamon. It adds a kick without having me reach for the tums later and has some great health benefits, too! Definitely going to try your super tasty looking green smoothie!
"Ok you you can get out now" ........ "where you going" CrazyLatinaProbs😂😂
Yess love green smoothies! I would love to see more videos like this❤️❤️🌶
you should have like alatorrefit as a channel for all these types of vids!
YES!!!!!!
valdene wright I think instead of creating a whole new channel I would just make these like "bonus" videos on my current channel - I don't really like when people have multiple channels I like it all in one but would NEVER stop doing makeup tutorials!
I always add coconut water or orange juice instead of just water. I thought you were tall until your boo came and he couldn't even fit. lol!
More videos like this please! So helpful! Loved it!
"go away now" ..."where are you going" omg lol
For a blendtec or vita mix one does not need to cut the fruit up so small as it has the power to mix up bigger pieces. For a mixer that is not very expensive you must cut up the stuff like she is.
That is a great deal you got it on Craigslist.
Yesssss please more food videos! Your snapchat recipes always look so good but I love having it in video form to go back and reference!
First video of yours I've ever watched and I love it! Thanks for the recipe! I love hearing about other people's fit lifestyles. It motivates me to get fit and healthy! Please do more recipe videos like this!
THIS KIND OF VIDEOS NEEDS TO BE MORE !!!! amazing melissa
Haha, the one who swore by pears is Rick Ross! Hoping this vid will inspire me to be healthy 😭😭😭😭
Vanessa ? A hahahahaha either way it's hilarious
Would love to see more of videos like this! Very helpful! I love your makeup tutorials, but it'd also be awesome to see other types of videos, like creating comfort at home, food etc., since it seems like you're really good at it!
Patatoes!!! Loved this! Will be trying tomorrow (without the cayenne) 🍏🍐❤
I've always avoided green smoothies thinking I wouldn't like them but you've inspired me to try.
On a different note, I would love to see you do some tutorials using more morphe eyeshadow palettes! I feel like they're one of the few companies releasing good quality palettes that just about everyone can afford. I know you have done a couple using the 350 but it would be great to see you using some of the other palettes.
Thanks for creating such an awesome channel, your probably my favourite beauty youtuber.
Finnaly a healty lifestyle- kind of video! I've been waiting for this for soo long and are already looking forward to more😘😘 You realy impressed me with this video👏❤️❤️ You look great, Melissa💜💜
I love her attitude. Great advice down to earth excited to see her other videos . Going to try her smoothie
Loved it!!! More cooking/recipe videos please :)
Yes I would love to see more health and fitness items from you. Especially healthy recipes.
Wow you seemed a lot taller. Definitely going to try this out especially the lemon part!💜
You look so great! And this smoothie looks so tasty. Definitely going to try it out! Thank you!! 👍🏽👍🏽
You guys together remind me of me (5.1) & the husband (6.3) 😄👍🙌🏻 Aw, Meeka is so cute 👏🏻 😊❤️ Also- snapfam 👻😊
Also- beets are good with more apples for sweetness- and yes please I like this kind of video- variety is good !!!
Im 5 and my bf s 6.2
I need a tall guy!!! I am 5.1🙌
I’m 4’11 and my husband is 6’4
He claims I keep him around because he can reach things I can’t lol
Thank you for sharing your green smoothie recipe! I love green smoothies and never thought to add cayenne to it! I bet it adds a nice kick to it! I would definitely like to see more videos like this! The benefits of the smoothies and your diet definitely shows in your skin. You have beautiful skin!
My smoothies are usually fruit heavy but I'll try to add more veggies than a handful of spinach 😂 definitely not celery though. I hate that stuff.
Christine Catani haha same for everything you said
Christine Catani I hate celery, but I always add spinach to my smoothies because I can't taste it at all.
I hate it as well, but i add it from time to time, because of the health benefits.
I don't like celery, but I don't neceCELERY hate it
Put whole lemon and blend with it. Lemon skin has great benefits as well and smell so good
This is amazing. I'm so trying it.
👍
I just started watching your videos and I think you are absolutely amazing. I love your makeup tutorials.
Ooh bring us more recipes! 👍❤
You know, I've eaten a majority of what you've shared and have felt even better and had improvement in my skin. Also, I've had a couple of green smoothies from Trader Joe's that have pretty much really similar blends and still taste great. Therefore, I have no doubt this would definitely help out skin. the Additional facts you shared even were interesting and good to know. Thanks!
"it's the Mexican in me, I Love lemon" lol I'm totally with you on that one Melissa! hehe I put lemon on just about Everything!! Great recipe, going to try this, thank you!!
Hi, Melissa! Please please please do more of this! I mean, your fitness journey.
It was actually Rick Ross who gave pears a shout out lol
stephanie s facts
stephanie s I thought it was pineapples
Thanks for sharing! I'm trying to get healthy and would love to see you incorporate more smoothie recipes and/or general health tips! I'm going to try this one asap!
Yes, gurl!!!! Thank you!!!!
💪💪💪💪💪 Thank you for saying Cilantro in both accents!!! This is so good, you're a natural for health and fitness tuts!!! To the point, detailed and funny!!!! I feel Kyle's pain, I have bad allergies too! Off to the grocery store I go AND I have a Vitamix and they are amazing!!! love u Melissa!!!
👍
Love me some green juices !!!!!!!! Give us more!!! I make one similar to this one and drink it daily. Life changing !!!!
Do you do any fruit smoothies? If so, can you please make a video :)
This is GREAT!!!!! Please do more healthy smoothies/meals you eat! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥btw YOU'RE GORGEOUS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
u kinda remind me of Salma Hayek soo cute😘 will def try this smoothie!
You don't have to remove the seeds. They are good for you and your Vitamix will pulvarize them.
Nikki H just an FYI!
"Unlike the sweet tang of the fruit, the tiny black seeds found in an apple’s core are another story. They contain amygdalin, a substance that releases cyanide when it comes into contact with human digestive enzymes, but acute toxicity is rare with accidental ingestion of seeds.... Small amounts can be detoxified by enzymes in your body, but large amounts can be dangerous.”
Melissa Alatorre great info! Thanks
low key first degree murder. i love it.
Good one
apple and apricot seeds are full of b17 a cancer killer this is why we are taught to stay away from them!! there are ways to prepare the seeds to remove the small amount of toxins if there even are any!! my uncle died of cancer but he lived 10 years with it when he was given only 1 to live!! he said he wished he found these things out sooner!! he was preparing apricot seeds what are found inside the stone and eating them with porridge and organic honey!! go do your own research on it....
starts at 1:49
I am a bit overwhelmed by the amount of ingredients hahaha, but I'm still excited to try it. Thanks for the suggestion and for the helpful tips throughout!
This is my smoothie time thank you for this😘
Just so you know you should drink the smoothie as soon as possible and not storing it for next day
neeharika soni yes, I drink it right after making it and only store what we can finish for less than 24 hours in a mason jar - I know they start to loose vital nutrients after being made
This was delish! I realized afterward that I should’ve added more pineapple (for my taste), so I just added a little raw agave instead-so good. I’m excited for more. 😁
Hehe Kyle makes you look so much smaller than what you already are 😂 so cute.
I was shook when I found out you were only 5' tall! I hope I can meet you one day and hug you cause I'm 6'3". You are a complete ray of sunshine and your videos always make me smile! ❤️❤️❤️
It was Rick Ross who swore by the pear! LOLOLOL! But thank you for this video regardless!
This is the most appetizing-looking smoothie I've ever seen. Gonna try this!
End was fun, this Smoothie looks really good! Even I and my husband are 5'3" and 6'3" respectively :D Glad to know another couple with that height difference :p
I appreciate how this smoothie is relatively cheap! Nothing too fancy and it can all be bought in bulk.
Yes more videos like this, you cute little petite thing you 😍
Great video..make sure to wash the kale before consuming. On the bag it usually says to wash before use.
Rice and black beans with lemon? yes please #portuguese
Erica Calça omggggg yesssss!!!!!!
I really enjoyed this video! Please do more of these!
you're the prettiest person ever i swear omfg
This green smoothie is super delicious! Thank you for sharing.
It is a great idea to begin telling about healthy food and sports in your videos! I always wonder how much american people worry about health. It is nice. So, please, continue, because personally for me sports videos are much more useful. When I watch your other videos, I am enjoying your creativeness, beauty, and professionalism. However it is really hard for me to recreate these looks because even Nyx is not budget cosmetics for me, because I am from Kazakhstan.
Made this today, and it turned out great!! Thanks for sharing and please share more like this too!
I love how Kyle was just like "I ate potatoes" 😂 so cute I died
Please do more videos like this! I am so excited to try this recipe!
