Those chasing GLAMGLOW newness are about to get hit with one of the brand’s best daily skincare launches since their mud-to-foam cleansers. Next month, the guys who want you to make love to your skin are releasing VOLCASMIC™, a Matte Glow Moisturizer. Yes, you read right – matte glow. Can you even?

What is it?

It’s a moisturizer that can be worn during the day or evening. It will work as a nighttime hydrator but its real magic (dat glow) may be underappreciated. If you are among those who found GLOWSTARTER™ a bit too heavy on the sheen, you’ll appreciate VOLCASMIC™, which takes it down a few notches and delivers a truly unique finish.

VOLCASMIC VS. GLOWSTARTER

You may think ‘matte glow’ is an oxymoron and you wouldn’t be wrong. Leave it to GLAMGLOW to transform excess oil and shine dilemmas flawlessly into a stunning and natural glow from within that borders on dewy. Nailed it.

What’s in it?

The proprietary TEOXI™ technology features Prickly Pear, Cherry Tomato Leaf and Winter Daphne Flora in the VOLCASMIC™ formula. Deeply nourishing, it replenishes and balances the skin’s hydration levels, leaving it supple, soft and vibrant. My biggest surprise: the texture. It’s a solid balm. Unlike other balms, which are oil driven, this one is water based. The unmistaken kbeauty vibe crossed my mind and then I noticed it’s actually ‘Made in Korea’ so.

INGREDIENTS

Amazingly lightweight, it feels cooling as it melts into the skin (you seriously need only a tiny amount), features a subtle silicone slip, and delivers the comfort of Glycerin and Pro-Vitamin B5. Volcanic Sand (hence the name) gently invigorates the skin and a touch of Mica leaves that signature ‘happy to be here’ finish. In true GLAMGLOW fashion, VOLCASMIC™ smells good enough to eat with tropical notes that hover between a marshmallow and a pina colada.

Thoughts?

VOLCASMIC™ is an intriguing moisturizer and as someone who struggles with an oily T-zone year round, it’s a winner. I probably won’t use it during the day much, however, as my SPF will mute the impressive glow perks. This holiday season, it will be a constant in my routine before every cocktail party! A superb follow up to my YOUTHMUD and SUPERMUD treatment, it seals and extends the glow inducing results. I can’t wait for this one to become available in trial size as part of a GLAM-TASTIC travel kit. So good.
