Glamglow Youthmud Glow Stimulating Treatment Mask 50g

Product Information

Lastly, keep in mind that nearly all GlamGlow products contain synthetic fragrance ingredients. While these fragrance ingredients do make the products smell nice, they can be a problem because the brand can use a proprietary blend of chemicals to create the fragrance, and they do not have to disclose which chemicals they use on the label. They are allowed to list this blend as “Fragrance (Parfum)” on the ingredient list.

In our opinion, GlamGlow Skincare products deliver value for money, but take a look at other brands that don’t require you to sacrifice your precious money. GLAMGLOW has been helping consumers achieve hydrated, smooth, and clear skin since 2011. Since then, the brand has spread globally and is now found in 86 countries and over 6,000 retail stores. The company may be known for its GLAMGLOW face mask line, but they also create cleansers, moisturizers, and lip treatments, including GLAMGLOW YOUTHMUD, GRAVITYMUD, PLUMPRAGEOUS, and a sparkly glitter face mask treatment. A lightweight water gel moisturizer for acne-prone skin that is said to instantly hydrate, clarify, and control shine without instigating new breakouts for balanced, healthier and clearer-looking skin Key ingredients include caprylic/capric triglyceride, apple fruit extract, coconut fruit extract, honey, vitamins C and E, and sodium hyaluronate Key ingredients include volcanic pumice, kaolin clay, montmorillonite clay, and green tea leaf extractA charcoal face mask that is said to lift dirt, toxins, and excess oil from pores and loosen dead skin cells to exfoliate and sweep them away, leaving fresh, smooth skin behind Key ingredients include shea butter, sodium hyaluronate, caffeine, vitamins C and E, and acetyl hexapeptide-8 For example, one review says, “I would not describe my skin as sensitive and I have never had an issue like this but I just used this mask for the first time and as soon as I put it on, my face started burning. After five minutes, since it hadn’t stopped, I removed the mask and was left with red, hot, blotchy skin. I thoroughly cleansed my face and applied aloe vera but the sensation has not stopped. It looks as though it started to burn off the top layer of skin.”

While there are beneficial key ingredients used in GlamGlow products, we did notice that some product formulations contain ingredients that could be potentially harmful. For example, both the GlamGlow Super Toner and GlamGlow Gravity Mud Mask contain a very high concentration of denatured alcohol. So why is this a problem? Let’s take a closer look at what high amounts of denatured alcohol will do to your skin. An exfoliating clay mask treatment that is said to instantly smooth and polish to revive skin’s youthful glow and reveal soft smooth skin in as little as 10 minutes Key ingredients include kaolin clay, activated charcoal, eucalyptus leaves, and a six acid blend of alpha and beta hydroxy acids (mandelic acid, tartaric acid, pyruvic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, glycolic acid) A creamy, soothing mask that is said to instantly boost skin’s health, restore radiance, and help promote skin’s microbiome for strengthened skinGlamGlow uses a variety of both natural and synthetic ingredients in their products, but a few of the key ingredients they use throughout the collection include alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), salicylic acid (BHA), shea butter, jojoba oil, and hyaluronic acid. These are all very commonly used ingredients. According to Dr. Stacy Chimento, a board certified Miami dermatologist of Riverchase Dermatology, lavandin oil (which is made up of true lavender and spike lavender extracts) and camellia leaf extract contain antioxidant properties. Similar to lavandin oil, Kaolin clay also draws oil from the skin. As a result, it's a particularly beneficial ingredient for anyone who has naturally oily skin or is prone to breakouts. Plus it has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe irritated skin. Key ingredients include jojoba oil, shea butter, probiotics, and a “superberry blend” (blueberry, cranberry and goji) A chrome peel-off face mask treatment that is said to help skin feel firmer, tighten and lift skin in an instant

The highest concentration ingredient (after water) is denatured alcohol, which helps to reduce excess oil on the skin — but not in a healthy way! Keep reading below to learn why alcohol-based products are likely doing more harm to your skin than good Some products (like GlamGlow Super Toner and GlamGlow Gravity Mask) contain very high concentrations of denatured alcoholAccording to a publication in the journal International Geology Review, “The high adsorption and absorption capacities, cation exchange capacity, as well as the extremely fine particle size of certain clays, e.g. smectites (expandable clay minerals) and kaolin group minerals are important reasons why these minerals are used to remove oils, secretions, toxins, and contaminants from the skin.” Another major problem with using high concentrations of denatured alcohol is that this ingredient is well known to cause skin dryness, irritation, and even disruption of the skin barrier. According to a publication in the journal BBA Biomembranes., alcohol disrupts the lipids that make up the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of skin). While alcohol may provide short term benefits, it’s not doing your skin any good in the long run. A dual-action exfoliating mask treatment that is said to chemically and physically buff away unwanted dead skin cells with lactic acid (AHA), salicylic acid (BHA), and microfine pumice to reveal bright, even glow instantly For optimal results, it’s recommended to use this GlamGlow mask three days in a row, and then use 2 to 3 times per week
