I just felt that I need to pamper myself this weekend. I need to visit my derma, get a haircut and hair treatment, start with my exercise regimen (again), and get glow-ing. My life has been exciting, yet stressful in the past months. I feel so unpretty. Then I found this box in my room. I remember receiving this pack days before the business trip, and I think it is perfect to try this product. I need to glow!

This picture was taken last month during our visit to the Juvenile Detention Center in Makassar, Indonesia. It is part of one of the community services that we did as volunteers for IBM CSC (I have yet to blog about my experience that day). I stayed in the island for a month with other volunteers from different countries – and I witnessed how Asians are so excited and fascinated with the Westerns and those with white skin.

I, personally don’t want to change my skin color. BUT I have uneven skin tone – my face’s skintone is different with my arms, and legs and whatever is hidden. And since I spent too much time under the sun (beach and island trips), I felt that my skin tone has gotten more uneven. So it is a perfect time for me to try Gloww.

So what is Gloww?

It is not a whitening capsule but a skin supplement. It contains 11 essential nutrients to help nourish our skin’s CLBT (Color, Luminosity, Brightness, and Transparency) Once these are improved, it would translate to radiant and younger looking skin.

How will it work?

Its unique SKHN (Skin, Health and Nutrient) Complex strengthens collagen, detoxifies your skin, enhances blood circulation, protects it from harmful UV rays and free radicals.

1. Collagen Strengthening (Marine Protein, Horsetail extract, Hydrolysed Collagen)

2. Blood Circulation Enhancer (Grape seed extract, Lemon bioflavonoids)
Improves blood flow in the distribution of nutrients and removes impurities that could give clearer and brighter skin

3. Skin Waste Detoxifier (Green Tea extract)
Cleanses the skin’s impurities, making the skin clearer

4. UV Protectant (Tomato extract, D. Salina extract)
Protects the skin from harmful UV rays thus preventing inflammation, redness and even melasma

5. Free Radical Defense (Pine Bark extract, Vitamin C and Vitamin E)
Prevents our skin from advanced ageing and degeneration

Sealed for its freshness. Reminds me of a biscuit!

I am not actually the type who tries every available skin and beauty products in the market. I am very careful with what I take and apply in my skin. I did a research about the product, and read alot of good feedback. Although I know that product effects would differ from person to person, I am still taking a leap and will try this.

So I need to take a capsule twice a day for a month, then one capsule the succeeding month for maintenance. Will I glow or not? I will keep you posted. Now the biggest challenge is reminding myself to include this in my daily routine.

Yes, it is BFAD approved!
