Why Slow Cow exists
If you're not in the practice of allowing the thing to happen, it won't happen.
Inspiration doesn't come first. It comes to the people who are already at work. A song, a thesis, a business, a routine: they all begin the same way, by starting.
We also believe nothing is made alone. Everything you do is a collaboration with the universe, whether you want it or not.
- Nobody is specialThe people who make great things aren't a different kind of person. Everyone has it in them.
- No permission neededYou don't have to wait for anyone's go-ahead to make your art.
- You don't have to be the bestNobody asks you to be the best in the world to start, or to make something. Aim for the best version of yourself.
- Art is artIt isn't about the outcome. What you make matters as soon as it exists. What happens after is another story.
- Play your cardsDon't chase what isn't in your hand. You already hold cards: play them, today.
We don't think you're missing anything. It's already in you. Shine is for the care you give yourself.
A clear mind changes everything.
Why Shine exists
A routine only counts if you keep it.
Anyone who has bought collagen powder knows how it goes: the tub on the counter, the shaker, the clumps, the day you forget, then the week.
Shine brings together 5 g of collagen and what a beauty routine usually adds on top: hyaluronic acid, biotin, glycine, taurine, green tea and vitamins A, B3, B6, C and D3. You open the can, you drink it, it's done.
Collagen, from zero
Collagen, explained simply.
- What is collagen?The most abundant protein in the human body. It is found in skin, hair, nails, bones and joints.
- Why "hydrolyzed"?Whole collagen is a very large molecule. Hydrolysis cuts it into small pieces called peptides. Shine has 5 g of them in every can.
- What comes with it?Glycine, which makes up about a third of collagen, plus hyaluronic acid, biotin, glycine, taurine, green tea and vitamins A, B3, B6, C and D3.
In the can
One can, instead of a shelf of products.
Collagen is one line on the label. Here is everything else that comes with it, and what each ingredient is.
Hydration moleculeSodium hyaluronateThe salt form of hyaluronic acid, a molecule found naturally in skin and joints and known for how much water it can hold.
Vitamin B7BiotinA B vitamin, and a factor in energy metabolism and tissue formation.
Amino acidGlycineThe smallest amino acid and a key building block of collagen: it makes up about a third of it.
VitaminsVitamins A, B3, B6, C and D3Niacin (B3) and vitamin B6 are factors in energy metabolism and tissue formation. Vitamin C is a factor in the maintenance of bones, cartilage, teeth and gums. Vitamin D3 helps build and maintain bones and teeth.
BotanicalDecaf green teaThe natural polyphenols of green tea, with the caffeine taken out.
AdaptogenPanax ginsengA root prized for centuries in Asian traditions. In Shine it is a light touch in the flavour.
Amino acidL-theanineAn amino acid found naturally in tea leaves.

What people are saying
So much easier than collagen powder tbh. I keep Shine in the fridge and grab one after pilates. With powder I'd always forget about it.Lilysam M.Shine
The blueberry acai is so good. Not too sweet and doesn't have that weird powder taste. I usually have one in the afternoon.Brieanne M.Shine
I remember Slow Cow from years ago so I wanted to try these. Shine's my favourite. Just tastes like a good fruity drink. My sister's into it now too.Amanda R.Shine

Common questions
Is 5 g of collagen enough?
5 g is a full daily serving of hydrolyzed collagen in many routines. Shine adds hyaluronic acid, biotin and vitamins, which a plain powder does not contain.
What does Shine taste like?
Blueberry, açaí and hibiscus. Lightly sparkling, not too sweet, with no powdery aftertaste.
What is it sweetened with?
A touch of cane sugar and stevia, for 35 calories a can. No sucralose, no aspartame, no artificial colours.
Does Shine contain caffeine?
No. No Slow Cow drink contains caffeine, so you can have one at any time of day.
Who can drink Slow Cow?
Slow Cow is made for adults 18 and over. It's not recommended for children, or during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
How long does shipping take?
Orders typically ship within 1 to 3 business days anywhere in Canada, and you get a tracking number as soon as your order leaves our warehouse. Shipping is free on 2 cases or more.
Supplemented food
In Canada, Mind Coolers are supplemented foods: drinks with added vitamins, minerals or other ingredients. That's why every can carries a Supplemented Food Facts table, a caution identifier and cautionary statements. Please read them before drinking.
