I am always on the lookout for new protein powders to incorporate in my healthy eating regimen. Even though I try to eat a well-balanced diet of whole foods, I am a realist when I say that my life gets way too hectic at times and sometimes I need a little help. Since I don’t eat red meat, fish or pork, I really have to make sure I am getting adequate protein each day. So you can probably guess that I was more than happy to test out the new vanilla-flavored Burt’s Bees™ Protein +Healthy Radiance protein shake!
My first thought…WOW! I didn’t know Burt’s Bees makes protein shakes!
I know they’ve made amazing, natural health and beauty products, but they believe that beauty and wellbeing start, and should come, from the inside out. That’s why they are introducing Burt’s BeesTM Protein Shakes, a collection of delicious plant-based proteins that allow you to drink-in all the benefits of nature’s most powerful ingredients, so you’ll feel ready to embrace each day to the fullest.
Ok, I like that. And how true. You need to nourish your body from the inside out.
What I loved instantly….the packaging! How pretty and colorful is the container?
Burt’s Bees plant based protein formula was carefully crafted with four organic protein sources – Pea, Rice, Flax Seed, and Sunflower Seed – and rounded out with Oats to achieve high digestibility and a complete essential amino acid profile. I love that this contains 70% organic ingredients, is non-GMO, and made with no artificial sweeteners or flavors. It is also dairy-free, soy-free and gluten-free. Reading labels on protein powders are so important, so many of them are packed with unnecessary junk!
Protein +Healthy Radiance is enhanced with antioxidant Vitamins A, C & E for a healthy glow. And who doesn’t want glowing skin?
This particular day, I was extra busy trying to get out of the house with my kids so I simply mixed Burt’s BeesTM Protein +Healthy Radiance powder with water and ice cubes. Check out how easy this was…
I was impressed with texture of this. It was silky smooth without and any grit or chalkiness. Those who know me realize that texture is an issue with me and certain foods (shrimp and cream cheese are just two examples!) so I was pleasantly surprised to see such a wonderful, creamy shake.
It was creamy and foamy on top, almost like a latte, but with protein, fiber and only 2 grams of sugar per serving. I don’t know any lattes that only contain that amount of sugar!

Non-chalky, creamy, nourishing, and delish?!? Sounds perfect to me!
They really are! Thanks for stopping by, Kelly!
I adore Burt’s skin care and beauty products. I’m sure I’d love this too!
Me too Erin! I bet you love these shakes!
I love Burts Bees’ products, but had no clue they had a protein powder. I eat fish, but rarely any meat and am always looking for healthy ways to get protein. Did I mention I’m allergic to nuts?? I wonder if they use the same pea that Hampton Creek uses as the base in their Just Mayo? I’m going to be on the lookout for this! Thanks, Lauren!
I hope you love it Susan! I don’t eat meat or fish so I rely on quality protein shakes like these!
I have approximately 100 tubes of Burt’s Bees lip balm in my possession because I fear being caught without it! Okay, maybe not 100, but a lot – I love it that much. I had no idea they were in the protein powder business, too, but totally makes sense. I’ve trusted their products for years – thanks for the review!
Lauren!! Oh my gosh, this is perfect for me! I just lost my sense of taste last week from my chemo, and have been looking at protein powder/shakes and honestly, half scared of them. Plus, most of them have TONS of sugar, and sugar is one of the worst things to eat when you are fighting cancer (or so they tell me). Thank goodness for Amazon prime!! Hooray. I’m passing this on to another cancer warrior friend of mine.
That’s hilarious April! I am with you, it’s my all time FAVORITE lip balm so I was so so excited to find out they were making these protein shakes!! And yes, Amazon prime is my best friend 🙂
Hi Julie! I hope you are feeling well and so happy to see you here. Sugar is very inflammatory and you definitely want to avoid while fighting cancer. I hope you enjoy the shake and I will continue to pray for you!
Thanks, Lauren! It’s certainly been a journey for all of us and your prayers are so appreciated.
XOXO
I’m with ya – I don’t eat hardly enough meat and have to incorporate protein in the from of a powder/shake into ma diet too – though I gotta say, I didn’t know Burt’s Bees makes protein shakes, either! BTW – your vanilla shake sounds delicious – I just polished off a protein muffin – think am gonna try this after my workout!
Ummm this is SO cool! LOVE their products!!
