The myBlend Glow Fluid promises to be a next generation face illuminator that offers up glow and skincare. I have been trying it out, here’s what you need to know.
What is myBlend Glow Fluid?
This is the kind of skin product that I am always interested in. A hybrid of skincare and makeup that is all about the glow.
- Airy, fine-textured next generation illuminating cream
- Formulated to enhance the skin’s natural radiance with a blend of light-reflecting pink and white pearlescent pigments
- Designed to deliver a unique glow – “wrapping skin in a sheer veil of light with a velvety finish”
- Enriched with peptides
- Works to hydrate the skin and care for the microbiota
Key Ingredients
Radiance peptide – for a brighter, more radiant complexion
Fermented turmeric extract – radiance-boosting antioxidant action
Marine prebiome -to help preserve the balance of skin microbiota
Hyaluronic acid – to plump and add hydration
Vegetable squalane – to nourish and give suppleness.
How to use it
You can use the myBlend Glow Fluid all over the face, or just on the high points to highlight. I have been using it as the last step in skincare / first step in makeup.
My Review of myBlend Glow Fluid
I think this will be a brilliant product if your skin starts to look a little dull as we move into winter. It leaves a very pretty glow that doesn’t look or feel greasy.
The formula gives the skin a very slight tackiness for about 10 minutes after application that makeup sticks to really well. And if you don’t want to apply makeup, that tackiness dissipates and just leaves radiance. As you move your face, the skin catches the light very naturally without any shine, just luminosity.
I think what I really like about this formula is that it adds a layer of radiance and also skincare (always happy to have some extra hydrations, peptides and biome boosting help) but without it feeling like you have got yet another layer of something on! It kind of does its task invisibly – radiance with no shine, and skincare without heaviness. It has been done really well.
This would be a great alternative to something like the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, if you want something lighter in texture and without any coverage or pigment.
