Hey everyone, so I've heard really great things about the Glam Glow line and I was wondering if anybody has ever tried it and please share your experience with me.

I'm thinking of purchasing the Glam Glow Thirsty Mud Mask because I have annoyingly dry flaky skin. Since it's summer, and I've been on vacation and swimming more often, it seems as if my skin is getting more and more dry. I moisturize twice a day but my skin is still super dull and dry.

Thanks in advance!

Nay. the white one broke me out. Though, if you want some more hydration you can try moisturizing face wash and face oil. If you have flaky skin you can try a cream exfoliator.

I have incredibly dry flakey skin as well, but I found glam glow did nothing. I returned it after using 5 times and not feeling any difference at all. It's not a mask, but when I returned my glam glow the sephora lady convinced me I needed this ole henrikson moisturizer, and that it works like a treatment. It really does. It has a weird bubblegum scent to it, but it was super moisturizing. I would layer it on thick after I washed my face and a few hours later I'd feel super hydrated. It's about the same price CAN as the glam glow.
But after I ran out of that, broke me decided to stop buying 20$ moisturizers that don't work enough, and try jojoba oil and sweet almond oil. It's completely changed my life and I've only been using it for a couple weeks, but my skin is no longer thirsty dry and I don't get as flakey, the only place I get flakey is the sides of my nose and it's hardly noticeable now. But it's done more than any hydrating mask has ever done weekly, in one use. I'd definitely recommend checking them out. Jojoba is good for acne prone skin too.

Do mot use any mud mask on your face.I don't suggest dry skin use stuff like that. Just use some mask can hydrate your skin like Avene's.

Nay, I say! Alyx makes excellent points. I'd be lost without my natural oils such as Jojoba, Sweet almond. Primrose and Jojoba are great for acne prone skin. Primrose is naturally antibacterial. Argan..another great alternative..just be sure you are not using food grade. Heating these oils loses so many of their benefits.
I'd wash with cooler water and use an aloe toner. Look for hydrating primers. Laura Mercier has one. Hourglass no 28 priming serum is also great on dry skin. That's the serious biz and you need but a dab. I got the travel size and it is still going strong. For less pricey options, if you are not mineral oil sensitive and so I like Embryolisse Lait-creme Concentrate as a base for my face. Monostat Chaffing gel is a dead dupe for Smashbox Photoready if you want a silicone based primer.
I'm am a big fan of Philosophy Microdelivery wash, which gentle removes flakes and is hydrating. I save that for just before I begin my face routine to keep flakes away. I do not wear foundation daily, but this is a nice option to try in the smaller size, which lasts forever and you need but a pea size amount in a moistened palm. Love love!
I love the Ole Henrikson line so I'll look into the Nurture Me...after my no-buy is over..lol
If there are typos I apologize. My phone is a pain. *sad trombone*

I agree with Alyx, Ole Henrikson has a lot of good product. I would go for that Brand instead.

I've used both and I honestly do like this one better and it's a third of the cost it does burn a little but nothing crazy.
