The unique mechanism
the six-active glow complex
A glycerine's job is to hold moisture. This one holds six tone-correcting actives too, which is why it works as a final step or as a booster mixed into your lotion.
Glycerin
The base, not an afterthought. It pulls water into the skin and holds it there, which is what makes the tone work last past lunchtime.
Vitamin C
Antioxidant cover against the dullness daily life leaves behind.
Niacinamide
Works on the look of uneven patches while supporting the skin barrier.
Alpha-arbutin
A well-tolerated tone corrector that targets the appearance of stubborn marks.
Azelaic acid
Made for exactly the kind of unevenness melanin-rich skin holds onto after a blemish has gone.
Licorice + carrot
Calming and warm-toned. Between them they keep the complex comfortable and the finish lit rather than ashy.
Two ways to use it
On its own as the last step after washing, or a pump mixed into the Million Dollar Glow lotion when your skin wants more hydration than usual.
What it will not do
Change your skin colour. This is a brightening and tone-evening glycerine. No hydroquinone, no mercury, no steroids — and we'd say so on the label if there were.
Honest comparison
most body oils sit on top and call it a glow.

Why we made this
The brightening aisle kept offering our customers one of two things: something that only moisturised, or something that promised to change their colour. Neither is what she asked for.
She asked for her tone to look even. For the mark left by last year's ingrown to stop announcing itself. So we put six actives in one bottle, on a base she'd actually reach for twice a day — and we tested it on our own skin first.

Before you buy
the questions we actually get
Will this lighten my skin?
No. This is a brightening and tone-evening glycerine — it works on the look of dark spots, marks and dullness so your tone reads more even. It is not a skin lightener, it contains no hydroquinone, mercury or steroids, and we don't sell it as one.
Glycerine or lotion — which do I need?
The lotion if you want one step. The glycerine as well if your skin drinks moisture, or if you want to mix the two for a heavier finish in winter.
Is it greasy?
It's glycerin-led rather than oil-led, so it absorbs instead of sitting on top. Give it a minute before dressing.
Will it stain my clothes or sheets?
The formula contains cosmetic colourants (CI 15985, CI 19140). Let it absorb fully before dressing — a minute is usually enough — and you won't have a problem.
I'm pregnant or breastfeeding.
The formula contains azelaic acid. Speak to your GP or midwife before starting anything new — we'd rather you asked than guessed.
