Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops

 If you’re all about that healthy glow when it comes to makeup and skincare then you’re gonna love this little gem from Glow Recipe.

Sitting within their iconic watermelon line of products is the Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops (£31).

Housed within the prettiest pink iridescent, tear drop shaped vessel is a beautiful lightweight serum to help create the illusion of dewy, fresh skin.

Bridging the gap between makeup and skincare, this hybrid niacinamide-infused highlighting fluid helps to visibly brighten your skin and delivers an effortless glow while helping to reduce hyperpigmentation.

Formulated without mica, glitter, or pearls, the serum imparts long lasting hydration while offering a subtle yet detectable lift to your complexion.

Suitable for all skin types including oily and acne prone, it instantly highlights your skin and is packed full of a host of skin friendly ingredients.

 

Unsurprisingly, the key element in the line-up is of course, watermelon.

Packed with protective vitamins A and C, skin-plumping amino acids, and the phytonutrient lycopene It he, it helps to moisturise, plump and soothe your skin while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Niacinamide (a powerful vitamin and antioxidant) gets to work evening out your skin tone by reducing hyperpigmentation and dark spots.

It also helps to minimise the appearance of pores while soothing skin and brightening dullness.

Hyaluronic Acid, the undisputed king of skincare ingredients can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water, resulting in visibly plumped skin and vitamin E rich Moringa Seed Oil helps to deeply hydrate.

The serum itself is a beautifully lightweight fluid which possesses an almost gel like texture.

 

It glides across your skin, soothing and calming as it goes.

Skin is left feeling plump, firm and deeply nourished without feeling heavy, oily or greasy.

You can use the serum as the final step of your skincare routine or directly over the top of your makeup, depending on the intensity of the glow you’re after.

 

Unlike powder highlighters or indeed some liquid ones which can look pigmented and almost glittery, these Dew Drops manage to create the illusion of naturally highlighted skin without the aid of makeup.

They create an almost invisible sheen to your skin which catches the light to perfection, lifting a dull, tired looking complexion.

You can use them all over your face or concentrate on areas more traditionally associated with highlighters such as cheekbones and brow bones etc.

Its these kind of products that I really live for; skincare/cosmetic hybrids that don’t just create a gorgeous finish but actually look after your skin simultaneously.

 

They’re particularly good as well if you’re just after a little lift, say on the school run when you don’t have time to do a full face of makeup.

Applied over the top of your skincare regime they just bring your complexion to life, giving you the illusion of looking fresh and dewy, even if you’re dog tired.

Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops are available now from Cult Beauty and cost £31.

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Magic Gift Set

 Treat yourself or a loved one to the gift of beautiful skin this Christmas with Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Magic gift set.

This beautiful soft pink box of superior hydration features three of Glow Recipe’s iconic products from their Watermelon collection.

For those not in the know, watermelon hydrates, soothes, and fights free radical damage to ward off fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots.

So basically it’s a bit of a skincare saviour.

This gorgeous set comprises of a full-size Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner, a travel version of Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops and a Watermelon Glow Hyaluronic Clay Pore-Tight Facial.

If you or a loved one are longing for healthy, plump, hydrated skin then this is the set for you.

 

The Watermelon Glow Hyaluronic Clay Pore-Tight Facial combines all the purifying benefits of a clay mask without the associated drying downsides.

              Formulated with hyaluronic acid infused kaolin clay, this pot of pink joy instantly gets to work to minimise the appearance of pores while restoring an uneven complexion and hydrating your skin.

 

The light, creamy, fluffy hyaluronic-acid infused whipped clay gently exfoliates and purifies your skin, removing dead skin cells and build up while chemical exfoliants in the form of watermelon enzymes, BHA and PHA help to clear congested pores.

Experience further, gentle exfoliation with the inclusion of micronized blueberry seed powder to revive, rejuvenate and brighten a dull, tired, lacklustre complexion in next to no time.

 

To use, simply apply a generous amount all over a freshly cleansed, moist face.

Lave for 5 minutes before gently rinsing off with lukewarm water.

Follow with the Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner.

 

This refreshing, brightening toner decongests skin and floods cells with five different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid.

It contains a potent poly hydroxy acid which gently clarifies your skin, buffing away dead cells to clear blocked pores while a naturally derived beta hydroxy acid battles blackheads and an antibacterial blend of tea tree with centella asiatica calms and soothes irritated skin.

Inspired by the Korean Aqua Peel Facial which focuses on the duality of exfoliating and hydrating, this pore-tightening, exfoliating toner helps to prep, prime and plump your skin increasing its ability to readily absorb the rest of your skincare routine products.

 

To use, simply dispense a small amount into the palm of your hands and gently pat it into your skin, don’t wipe away or rub.

If you’re more used to using a cotton pad with a toner, apply the toner to the pad and simply pat it into skin, don’t wipe, or rub and you’re done!

 Last but by no means least is the Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops.

 

 

This lightweight emulsion is a skincare makeup hybrid that will help you to achieve a truly radiant glow.

Offering an out-of-this-world glow, you’ll find no mica, glitter or pearls within this formula but you will find a host of skin loving ingredients and vitamins to protect, pamper and hydrate.

The silky, lightweight formula is packed full of vitamin A and C to moisturise, plump and soothe while treating fine lines and wrinkles.

 

Niacinamide helps to even out skin tone, reduce the appearance of pigmentation and lift and brighten a dull, lacklustre complexion.

Hyaluronic acid visibly plumps for bouncy, healthy looking and feeling skin while moringa seed oil hydrates and soothes.

Multi-purpose, this highlighting serum can either be used prior to your moisturiser for an extra hit of hydration or as the last step in your routine for an instant, dewy finish.

 

So whether you’re in need of a skin pick-me-up, or know of a friend or loved one who is desperate for a healthier glow then this could well be the set for you.

Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Magic gift set is available now and costs £44.

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer

 Switch up your skincare and inject some fruity goodness with Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer.

This fun, funky moisturiser features watermelon extract, traditionally used in Korea to soothe irritated and inflamed skin to quench dehydrated skin and restore vitamins, antioxidants and amino acids.

 

 

Enriched with skincare saviour hyaluronic acid, soothing botanicals along with antioxidant rich Jasmine and Peony Extract, the moisturiser seeks to hydrate, brighten and impart a natural radiance to dull, tired complexions.

Formulated specifically with oily to combination skin in mind, it is perfect for my greasy skin.

Beautifully lightweight and silky smooth, the cooling gel-emulsion is so light that it almost has the texture of refreshing water.

 

 

It possesses a soft, sweet hint of juicy watermelon but it doesn’t smell synthetic or chemically.

In fact, it has been created using the minimum amount of fragrance, containing less than 0.5%.

It is light, refreshing and quite frankly, gorgeous.

 

 

Watermelon extract hydrates, soothes and fights against free radicals to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots while hyaluronic acid quenches thirsty skin and holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water.

Jasmine and Peony Extract, both rich in antioxidants soothe sensitive skin, protect and repair damaged cells and moisturise and brighten for a complexion that radiates health.

Soft, silky and feather-light, the cooling gel is quickly absorbed into your skin leaving it feeling fresh, revived and hydrated.

 

 

It is perfect for my oily skin as it doesn’t feel heavy, doesn’t clog my pores and offers light but long-lasting nourishment.

It doesn’t hurt that it’s a super cute pink hue and smells divine too!

Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Pink Moisturizer is available now and costs £19.50 for 20ml or £36 for 50ml.

 

 

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Lip Pop

My obsession with the fun and fruity brand Glow Recipe continues with the launch of their latest product, their Watermelon Glow Lip Pop (£19.50)

Allow me to introduce you to my lips new best friend.

This multi-tasking tube of pure pink joy is so much more than just a lip balm, lip scrub or lip colour.

It is in fact, all three.

God I love a multi-tasking product!

Watermelon Glow Lip Pop gently and effortlessly helps to exfoliate your lips, imparts a splash of intensely nourishing hydrating AND leaves a subtle pop of pink colour on your lips.

Do not mistake the simple, fuss free packaging as a reflection of a simplistic product because this is far from being a one dimensional balm.

This pretty pink product has been formulated (unsurprisingly given its name) with Watermelon Extract, known for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties which helps to hydrate and deliver vitamins to your skin.

Cold-pressed Watermelon Seed Oil and Vitamin E locks in moisture, ensuring lips are left feeling soft and supple all day long while edible AHA extracts derived from Hibiscus, Wild Pansy and Hawthorn gently smooth, soften, and hydrate your lips.

The exfoliating element of the lip pop comes in the form of Coconut Flower Sugar which gently exfoliates your lips to remove dry, dead skin while pampering and preventing further dryness and flaking.

It sounds fabulous, but how does it actually work and how can it be a rinse-free exfoliator, balm and tint all in one in?

Well, as you can see from the photos the balm contains tiny grains of the coconut sugar mentioned earlier. Upon application, you’ll notice the sensation of an extremely gently exfoliation as the grains get to work buffing away dry skin.

After application, rub your lips together and notice that the sugar grains have melted away, leaving behind a silky smooth, soft and hydrating balm.

Hence no need to rinse off!

Despite appearing clear on your lips after initial application, very quickly you’ll begin to notice the colour develop.

Formulated to adjust to the unique pH of your lips, you’ll be left with your very own personal pink tint!

Soft, silky and comfortable to wear, the balm hugs your lips without slipping, sliding or transferring horribly and leaves your lips feeling comfortable and looking beautifully plump and healthy.

Did I mention it smells like fresh, fruity and delicious watermelon?

Just when I think Glow Recipe couldn’t get any better they keep launching products that continue to blow my mind and expand my beauty fruit bowl!

Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Lip Pop is available now and costs £19.50.
