Moon Juice shop in Los Angeles, California

Pair a formally trained chef with a desire for better living, and you get Moon Juice. For just over six years now, owner Amanda Chantal Bacon has been expanding on her staggering array of plant-based supplements in the hopes of bringing a healthier lifestyle to those who seek it- and if her recent storefront additions are any indication, the seekers are many. 

 

Moon Juice dusts and coffee in Los Angeles, California

Across the three Venice, Silver Lake, and Melrose locations, Moon Juice offers everything from raw, cold-pressed juices to chai lattes besprinkled with one of six Moon Dusts. What exactly is Moon Dust? Similar in appearance to a protein powder, it’s an organic mineral-and-plant powder that’s meant to be blended into smoothies or teas for detoxifying and stress-relieving effects. Local enthusiasts swear by it, and on my last visit to California I finally got to have the full experience for myself. 

I first started using Moon Juice when I got back from a trip to Bali last year; feeling like I wanted to keep on the method of putting good things into my body, these products seemed like the perfect way to do so. As with our bags, I like that Moon Juice only uses the highest-quality, purest elements, so it was really great to actually have the chance to visit one of their LA stores and see what they do. It’s the best kind of one-stop shop for natural products, and I love that what they sell is plant-based and sourced from the earth: everything in its most natural state.
