Meet Glow Bamboo Brightening Mask!

There are various skin issues that many of us face daily and the COSMEDIX Glow Mask can help you get optimal results with brightening agents and a light and soothing feel! The COSMEDIX Glow Mask helps all skin types look their absolute best by lessening the appearance of discoloration and improving the look of brighter, smoother skin. 

To combat the look of dull, listless skin, Glow Mask is packed with ingredients including bamboo stem extract for exfoliation and niacinamide to improve elasticity. Bring back a hint of that vibrancy that weather and stress can take away. Slough away dead surface cells with the mask’s tiny granules to help increase your skin’s firmness to get the look of healthier, more luminous skin.

There are a few ways the mask can be applied. For full coverage exfoliation, in a circular motion, spread the mask all over your face or simply apply it to areas of concern for more specific treatment up to three times per week or as tolerated. Taking the best care of your skin is a necessity for putting your best face forward. 

When preparing to use the Glow Mask, it’s better to first cleanse with Purity Solution, pat dry and apply the Glow Mask by massaging it into your skin in a circular motion. For the best results, leave on the skin for 10 – 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water and pat dry.

Bamboo Stem Extract:Helps to exfoliate the skin

Niacinamide:Improves skin’s elasticity, dramatically enhances barrier function, helps erase the appearance of discoloration and revives skin’s healthy tone and texture

How To: At Home Gua Sha Facial Massage

Inspired by traditional Chinese beauty and health culture, the Gua Sha stone is a facial massage tool that can help increase circulation, reduce the look of puffiness and promote positive energy in your face, eyes and neck.

For optimal results, try pairing the use of the Gua Sha stone with COSMEDIX serums or moisturizers. Whether you use your Gua Sha stone in the day or at night, the appearance of your greatest features can improve with each use. To get the best results, use your Gua Sha stone in an upward motion with three to six swipes per usage in the area that you would like to see improvement. If that isn’t reason enough for you to use the Gua Sha stone for optimal skin and circulation health, here are a couple more reasons:

  • If you use Gua Sha at least three times per week on your face, jawline, decollete, neck, it can revitalize and enhance the appearance of your greatest features
  • The smoothness and shape of the rose quartz can give a calming and cooling effect on the skin

The Gua Sha stone can also help the appearance of your face, neck, chin, lips, eyes and brows. Gliding the Gua Sha stone across your skin can help give your skin a healthier, glowing appearance. Beauty lovers all over are sure to flock to the new COSMEDIX Rose Quartz Gua Sha’s unique shape and smooth, cooling texture that will make taking care of your skin care much easier.
