WHAT IT DOES
- Supports cellular turnover with plant-based glycolic and lactic acids.
- Unclogs pores for clear, balanced skin.
- Boosts collagen for improved elasticity and firmness.
- Enhances absorption of skincare for maximum efficacy.
- Free from physical exfoliants, gentle for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
WHY IT'S UNIQUE
GLOW delivers effective, yet gentle exfoliation without compromising the skin barrier. Unlike exfoliants that rely on harsh sensations to signal efficacy, GLOW works without irritation, using pH-balanced, plant-based glycolic and lactic acids to resurface and refine. Enriched with soothing botanicals like chamomile and turmeric, it’s designed to brighten, smooth, and support skin renewal, making it ideal even for sensitive skin. By balancing deep exfoliation with nourishment, GLOW promotes radiant, healthy skin without unnecessary aggression.
FORMULATION STORY
Since 2016, SCRUB—our original exfoliating mask—has transformed skin with AHA acids and finely milled bamboo powder. As we expanded into spas, we saw the need for a gentler "sister" exfoliant for sensitive or acne-prone skin. Once exclusive to professionals, GLOW is now available for at-home self-care, delivering powerful yet soothing exfoliation for all skin types.
HOW TO USE
Massage GLOW onto dry skin to biochemically exfoliate dead skin cells. Allow formula to penetrate the skin for an additional 3-15 minutes. Rinse with warm water (and sea sponge if desired) to reveal smooth, radiant skin.
Contains alpha-hydroxy acids; sun protection is advised.

How Does GLOW Help Prevent Premature Aging?
GLOW supports collagen production by utilizing glycolic acid from sugarcane, a small molecule capable of penetrating the skin’s outer layers. Unlike topical collagen, which cannot absorb due to its large size, glycolic acid stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen, promoting smoothness, firmness, and efficient skin renewal. By enhancing this natural process, GLOW helps maintain skin resilience and delay visible signs of aging.
What’s the Difference Between Chemical and Physical Exfoliants?
Chemical exfoliants use enzymes or acids (like glycolic and lactic acid) to dissolve dead skin cell bonds, revealing fresh, radiant skin. To prevent irritation, GLOW and SCRUB use gentle plant-based AHAs, balanced with soothing chamomile and turmeric. Physical exfoliants lift away dead skin with fine particles. While some can be too harsh, SCRUB’s finely milled bamboo silica provides a gentle, effective polish without damaging the skin.
Is Exfoliation Necessary for Everyone?
For those who prefer a minimalist approach, exfoliation might not be necessary. However, those in urban environments can benefit from weekly or bi-weekly exfoliation to clear away pollutants and dead skin buildup. You can patch-test GLOW on your inner arm. A light tingle is expected due to plant-based AHAs, but it should not burn or cause discomfort. If you’re new to exfoliants, start with just a few minutes of masking and gradually increase to a full 20 minutes.
How often should GLOW be used?
With exfoliation, less is more. Over-exfoliating in pursuit of "glass skin" can harm the skin by damaging the lipid barrier and leading to inflammation. Excessive exfoliation can also break down elastin and collagen. For healthy cellular turnover and collagen production, using GLOW once or twice a week is ideal to maintain skin health without compromising the protective barrier.
What is skin-cycling, and does this include GLOW?
Skin-cycling is a strategic skincare approach that alternates between treatment and rest nights, preventing overuse of actives while allowing the skin to recover. GLOW fits seamlessly into this routine as an exfoliation treatment on "Night 1", or the designated treatment night. Find the full LINNÉ Skin-Cycling Protocol in LINNÉ Field Notes.
Where Does GLOW Fit in my skincare routine?
GLOW is Step II, designed to gently exfoliate, unclog pores, and stimulate cellular renewal, preparing the skin to better absorb serums and oils. By removing dead skin buildup, it enhances the penetration and efficacy of subsequent products. Apply after cleansing, or mix with PURIFY for a double-duty mask that deeply cleanses while refining texture. This step ensures skin is refreshed, balanced, and primed for optimal nourishment.
