Got The Glow?

Illustrated by Jacqueline Davis Moranti

It's summer and once again, we're left scrambling for that holy grail product that will make our skin glow from within! Gorgeous dewy skin is literally always the rage but definitely during this time of the year, too many products tell us that we need this tool and that tool to get the look we so desire but many times they fail to provide with the end goal we fundamentally wanted, glowing skin. With products that I've used in the past, i've noticed a lot of hype with not a lot of results. All of that changed when the Ole Glow Kit arrived at my door step! 

C/O Ole Henriksen

Ole Henriksen's glow kit contains the Truth Serum, the Power Bright 3 step brightening system, the Sheer Transformation moisturizer and two facial scrubs. Sounds like a lot of steps, right? I thought so too, it quickly intimidated me with all the different products that came along with it because who has a lot of time to devote for an at home facial?! Upon using it, the steps start to feel ritual and you start seeing results quite rapidly. 

The Truth Serum Collagen Booster is like a multivitamin for your skin, it provides you with your daily glow. All you have to do is apply one pump every morning, I usually do it right after brushing my chompers. Smooth and easy texture that creates a great moisture barrier for my skin while also infusing preventative measures (vitamin C blast) as well. 

The Sheer Transformation Moisturizer is a weightless, non greasy, oil free moisturizer. It helps aiding in your daily glow by applying it daily, morning and night although I tend to only put it on at night because in the day time I strictly use spf types of creams. It's safe to use for all skin types and is fortified with plenty of vitamins and botanical extracts to stimulate collagen production and reverse sun damage and also fade any discoloration to reveal bright and beautiful skin. I've been loving how it makes my skin feel!

My favorite piece in the Ole Glow kit is definitely the Power Bright System. Never have I ever used a mask that delivered instant results such as this, Power Bright provides you with a 3 step system, polish, brighten and glow. Each step brings you closer to a smoother and radiant complexion by exfoliating, moisturizing and cleansing off dead skin. I immediately noticed how supple my skin felt, and after using for the past two weeks, my skin is naturally dewy without the help of makeup! This kit included the popular Truth Sugar Glow Polishing Mask, Truth 25 (actually contains 25% of vitaminC), and Pure Truth Melting Cleanser. Using the facial sponges that come with the kit help activate each mask. This kit also made me feel like I was rubbing a lemon meringue pie on my face, the citrus extracts were quite a nice surprise! This kit is best if used 3 times a week. 

If you're looking for a more radiant complexion, look no further than Ole Henriksen's glow kit! My skin is noticeably brighter and toned. The scent is oh so uplifting and definitely appreciated. I've been using these products for the past two weeks and can tell it's going to become a mainstay in my beauty routine.  Dear readers, what do you do to get the glow?
