What Glass adds

What actually matters before you buy it

A solid choice for dry and normal skin types needing significant hydration and a plumping effect. It excels at providing a dewy finish and comforting the skin, but those with oily or acne-prone skin might find it too rich.

The texture is divine

Worth the splurge for dry skin

Many users with dry or mature skin consider this a holy grail product, noting its effectiveness in alleviating dryness, improving skin texture, and providing a lasting dewy glow.
