MARGOT Robbie’s flawless performance in Barbie was, surprisingly, the result of sipping a bitter drink.
The skin-enhancing hot drink was compared to a “witch’s potion” by the film’s skin care expert.

Jasmina Vico was inspired by flawless photos from the 1940s when she had to ensure that the cast of the Barbie movie had “perfect” skin.
IT’S FANTASTIC
She told Vogue that calming the nervous system and keeping the liver healthy will help you achieve a radiant complexion.
In its home country of Croatia, milk thistle is a popular drink due to its liver-cleansing effects.
“When that happens, our liver automatically produces more glutathione, which makes the skin brighter,” Vico said.
“One of the most important ingredients in it is silymarin, which is now commonly found in skin care products.”
She recommended letting the tea steep for at least 20 minutes to obtain the “bitter” taste needed to cleanse the liver.
Robbie was so confident in the drink’s capabilities that she prepared it to share with her colleagues at director Greta Gerwig’s Barbie pajama party.
“This tea is like a witch’s potion!” said Vico.

HERBAL HERO
Hundreds of Amazon customers have purchased organic milk thistle tea from Buddha Teas in the last month.
There is only a limited supply of the herbal tea bags left in stock, priced at $9.90.
While Vico recommends letting the drink steep for 20 minutes, the manufacturer gives different instructions.
They recommend placing a tea bag in a cup of boiling water, covering it, and letting it steep for up to six minutes.
BARBIE’S WORLD
Amazon buyers gave the beauty tea 4.4 out of 5 possible stars.
Among the customers, one said it helped him get his “health on track” and another raved about the “fragrant” taste.
“This milk thistle tea has brought me so many benefits,” said one customer.
“It has given me back my energy, combated dry skin and I sleep better!
“I can only recommend it!”
“I take two of these tea bags every night and my inflammatory acne has reduced by over 50% and is finally starting to heal,” said another.
“I just ordered 3 more boxes! For me personally, it’s a MIRACLE!”
