Last month, I participated in an Instagram giveaway hosted
by Missy and I won!! My prize? A prize pack from Runner’s High Herbals and it
was full of so much awesome! I’ve heard
great things about their products and I couldn’t wait to try them. My prize
pack included:
- Super Herb Plus+
- Chill AF Muscle Rub
- Bee Healed!
- Heel the Sole
- Wildcrafted Pinon Salve
- Peppermint in the Pines Lip Balm
- Super Herb Oil Blend
- Stickers
- Cinch Bag
The first thingI did when I received the items was open them
and smell them. I am super sensitive to
smell – if a product has a smell I don’t like, it is definitely a deal breaker
for me, no matter how amazing the product might be. These all smelled amazing! I love earthy and natural smells- these
products have just that.
Each product is designed to do something different and I gravitated
towards using the ones that aide in muscle recovery with anti-inflammatory and
pain relief ingredients. My favorite has been the Super Herb Plus+ stick-- I used it post runs on the areas where I sometimes have muscle cramping issues. Let's be real-- I'm on a run streak and sometimes my legs get tired. I try to be proactive in maintaining my recovery and remaining injury free. I'm not a medical professional and can't honestly say if this has medical benefits. But I can tell you that it's not hurting me and I'm happy to add it to my recovery and training process.
Another one of my favorite products has been the Peppermint in the Pines lip balm. I love a good lip balm and you can never have too many. It left my lips feeling hydrated without feeling waxy. It also passed my "on the run" test-- I've had lip balms melt in my running pack when I'm running and this one didn't do that!
After one of my long runs, I had a small flare up of the tendonitis in my foot-- I used the Super Herb Oil Blend with my other recovery methods and loved it! The mix of arnica flowers and turmeric have an amazing smell and it wasn't too oily. It's also easy to use in a convenient roller bottle.
I can't wait to use the rest of my products when I need them. I love the simplicity of the Runner's High Herbal packaging but in that packaging comes an amazing product. Sometimes less is more and that is definitely true with these.
Have you used Runner's High Herbals products? What do you use to help in your recovery?
Until next time, happy running.
