Autumn skin cleansing, routine tips and news!
Hello and welcome back after the summer, we hope you are all doing well and have had time for rest, recovery and hopefully some K-beauty? :)
In this blog post, we thought we'd go over what's happening this fall, two new products for the season, and tips on how to clean up both your routine and skin for the current season.
What's the latest news from us at GLOWiD?
We are growing so fast and we are planning in full swing for the autumn happenings in the form of events, collaborations and wonderful campaigns! This weekend, three of our colleagues are going to GLOWiD's hometown, namely Seoul, South Korea. What will the girls do over there, you wonder? Well, they will meet suppliers and representatives from all of our brands such as Dr. Ceuracle, COSRX, Klairs and more! The girls are going to a humid and hot climate so they have packed their bags full of cooling sheet masks and SPF. What do you think, can we expect an airplane routine? It is actually quite a long trip there, about 16 hours! They have time to do both a morning and evening routine in that time! ;)
Jokes aside, we wish the girls a pleasant trip and stay updated on their adventures via Instagram ! <3
Hey news!
We have several new products arriving just in time for the colder temperatures. This week two products were launched from By Wishtrend, a "new-old" player " Acid Duo Hibiscus 63 Cream " that you have all been longing for so much. This is our absolute last re-stock of this product ever as it will then be completely removed from By Wishtrend's range, a bit sad but we are sure that they will deliver new equivalent products in the future!
Acid-Duo Hibiscus 63 Cream is a light exfoliating cream that is perfect for use in the evening . The cream contains both LHA and PHA, acids that are good at exfoliating while not irritating the skin. Acid-Duo Hibiscus 63 Cream dissolves clogged pores and balances the sebum level in the skin while working on pigmentation and gives lots of glow. The main ingredient is 63% Hibiscus Extract which is rich in antioxidants and boosts the effect of LHA and PHA.
The cream is suitable for all skin types, but especially oily, impure or acne-prone skin.

NEW! By Wishtrend delivers this fall's it-serum for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin " Cera Barrier Soothing Ampoule " packed with centella, ceramides, squalane and peptides, this serum ampoule has a really nice INCI list, and do you know what? The first ingredient is not water, but centella asiatica! This herb is anti-inflammatory, repairing and soothing, quite unique isn't it?
This ampoule is designed to protect and repair the skin barrier. It is a gentle ampoule adapted for sensitive skin that counteracts moisture loss and soothes irritated skin. The product has been tested and proven to be non-comedogenic for acne-prone skin, meaning it does not clog the skin.
With the "CeraBalance formula", which consists of ceramide NP, centella asiatica, plant-based squalene and peptides that together create a synergy to soothe sensitivity, dryness, dullness and strengthen the skin barrier.
It has a light milky texture that absorbs smoothly into the skin without leaving any sticky finish, it is also perfume-free.
Here are 3 tips on how to autumn clean your routine:
1. Evaluate your skin's results from the summer . How has your skin reacted to sun, wind and water? Maybe a little dehydrated? New pigmentation? Did you get burned? Didn't have time for skin care? It's okay, most conditions can be treated.
2. Ask yourself the question: "What does my skin need right now?" If the answer feels difficult to come up with yourself, you are always welcome to send us an email at info@glowid.se where you describe as best you can the condition of your skin, the feeling and your desired results. To make it easier for our skin therapists, you can also attach a picture if you want! :)
3. Take inventory and recycle! Check expiration dates and best-before labels, get rid of expired products, recycle plastic, paper and glass packaging! Did you know that on the back of every Dr. Ceuracle product there is a place to write the year, month and date? Write down this information when you open and thus break the packaging so you know when it will expire.
Autumn cleanse your skin with our favorites at 20% off until Sunday 10/9.
Summer may have left its mark on your skin in the form of dry patches, blackheads or new pigmentation. To restore your skin, we want to start by exfoliating away dead skin cells from the surface so that our valuable serums and creams can really have a chance to penetrate and be absorbed by the skin.
Invest in gentle enzymes to start preparing your skin for autumn with an enzyme powder consisting of green tea and papain from By Wishtrend.
If you want an acid, we have one of Cecilia's favorite products . A mild mandelic acid that works for all skin types. Use 1-3 evenings a week, soak a cotton pad and swipe from the inside out to wake up with radiance and glow! 5% Mandelic Acid By Wishtrend.
After exfoliation, it's good to repair with soothing and moisturizing toners . This week you'll find two fragrance-free and repairing toners from Klairs and Make P:rem , respectively, that work for everyone, especially those with sensitive skin!
An essence that both moisturizes, softens and adds good bacteria to the skin is Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence . A light milky essence that works wonders for dry skin! If you haven't tried this product yet, this is your sign to do so now at a 20% discount! :)
Emollient creams are an absolute essential no matter how long or short your skincare routine is. This rich night cream from Dr.Ceuracle is suitable for dry and mature skin as it contains 6 different types of hyaluronic acid + B vitamins. While this all-in-one cream from multifunctional Hyggee is suitable for, well...everyone!
Ready for retinol?
Two retinol products from COSRX are The Retinol 0.1 and The Retinol 0.5 , with the lower number recommended for beginners and the higher for those who have used the ingredient previously in their routine. Both retinol products are enriched with vitamin E, a protective antioxidant to nourish while it works.
Retinol is a variant of vitamin A, a powerful ingredient that stimulates deep skin cell renewal if you want to treat conditions such as acne, wrinkles/fine lines, pigmentation or collagen production.
Retinol should not be used every day at first, but rather aim for once a week as a beginner. To make the transition pleasant, you can adopt a schedule of exfoliation and retinol according to a schedule called "Skin Cycling". You can find more about Skin Cycling on our Instagram, but a blog post on the subject is coming soon!
