GlamGlow Treatments Which is Worth Its Bucks?


Last year I started to use GlamGlow treatments. Reason why I was delaying on making my purchases was their price point. They are quite pricey in my opinion. Over the course of the past few months, I have tried all 4 of their treatments and decided to do a brief post in case any of you want to try the product and hopefully help you decide which one is for you.

First up is the YouthMud Tinglexfoliate Treatment(the one in the black jar). I got this slightly smaller jar with the SuperMud in a set. The regular size is 1.7 oz for CAD$69. This is an excellent exfoliate mask treatment. I apply an even layer on my skin and within the next 20 seconds after application, you would experience a quite intense tingling sensation. If you have very sensitive skin, I don't recommend this. You leave it on for 10 minutes and rinse off. The treatment has some herb-like chunks in it and as you rinse it off, you gently exfoliate your skin to get all the dirt and dead skin out. 

Second is the SuperMud Clearing Treatment(the one in the white jar). This is 1.2 oz and CAD $69. I use this to clear pores mainly. I also use this as a spot-treatment whenever I have a small breakout. To make the most of my bucks, I use a foundation brush to apply the mask. You want an even layer for best results. You leave it on for 20-25 mins and rinse off. Within first use, I see immediate result. Pores are tightened and minimized. Skin is significantly softer. See my post for a full review. 

Third is the ThirstyMud Hydrating Treatment(the one in the aqua jar). 1.7 oz for CAD $69. I have oily combination skin but for the long dry winter months in Canada, I need a hydrating mask to help with the occasional dry patches. There are 2 ways to use this. You can apply the treatment and leave it on for 20 mins, rinse off before you apply your regular skincare products and makeup. The second way is to apply the mask overnight. Let your skin drink up all the goodies from the treatment and when you wake up, you would be amazed by how soft and hydrated your skin is. This mask also smell amazing. It is like they stuff many coconuts into the jar. See this post for a review.

Last one is the BrightMud Eye Treatment. You get it in a set of 12 treatments for CAD $69. One set consists of 2 sides. One for your left eye and one for your right. I find it is a bit too much so I use one for both eyes. It has cooling effects for your under eye and you leave it on for 10 mins before rinsing off. I have used them a few times but unfortunately don't see a significant improvement. I use these at night and I am not sure if these are better used in the morning when my dark circles and puffiness occur. 

My absolute favorite is the SuperMud Clearing Treatment. I use it approximately 2-3 times a week and the jar lasted me over 3 months. Just apply it with a foundation brush for even layer and you won't waste a lot of product. Second favorite is the YouthMud Tinglexfoliate treatment. Excellent exfoliater and if you want to try the deluxe sample size(0.5 oz), the little jar lasts 3-4 uses. The ThirstyMud Hydrating treatment is great for dry skin. With the warmer weather approaching, I don't see much use of the treatment for the coming months personally. But if you have extremely dry skin, it is perfect for all year round use. My least favorite is the BrightMud Eye Treatment. It is very expensive even if I could make it last for 24 uses as I don't see significant improvement.

Hopefully this post will help you decide which GlamGlow treatment works best for you.

    1. the supermud is my favorite one of the bunch. They should come out in a deluxe sample size as the youthmud tinglexfoliate does so more people can try it before committing to getting the full-sized.
