Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturiser // The August Review
With all the hype around the brand, The Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturiser was one I couldn’t resist for this years The August Review.
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturiser – £19.50 RRP
The brand describes the product as:
“Offering instant radiance, the weightless, cooling, gel-like formula wont clog pores, making it ideal for oily or combination skin. It stars watermelon extract, acclaimed by Korean beauty buffs for its ability to soothe irritated and inflamed skin with luscious, skin-restoring vitamins, free radical-fighting antioxidants and amino acids. As well as flooding thirsty cells with watermelon extract, this miraculous moisturiser features hydrating hyaluronic acid and soothing botanicals including peony and jasmine extracts, sealing in hydration to prep skin perfectly for the day ahead. It will drench your complexion in plumped, juicy hydration and luscious, long-lasting moisture so pop some on and prepare for compliments (you can even mix it with foundation to totally ace your base)”.
Pros:
- Smells incredible.
- Silky.
- Sinks into skin.
- Doesn’t pill.
- Hydrating.
- Soothing.
Cons:
- A little watery in texture.
The Verdict:
I had to try Glow Recipe. I had read many amazing reviews about a few of their products. At the time, I was trialing new moisturisers and they offer this in a 25ml bottle. Perfect, I wouldn’t have to buy a full sized one.
I am on the fence about this moisturiser. All the pros I have listed are such amazing selling points for it. I seriously love the smell of this. But the watery texture makes it difficult with the application. There are other reviewers who have felt the same. With some finding it not rich enough. I think if this came in a jar with a spatula to help application, I’d be using it on a regular basis.
As always, thanks for reading…
