Gloww Update: After 2 Months

This day marks the 60th day of my taking Gloww, an all natural BFAD-approved, oral skin supplement that improves the skin's condition in terms of Color, Luminosity, Brightness, and Transparency (CLBT). Note that Gloww is NOT a whitening pill. It's a skin vitamin that takes care of the skin from within.

Gloww capsules are composed of Marine Protein, Horsetail Extract, Green Tea Extract, Lemon Bioflavonoids, Hydrolysed Collagen, Vitamin C, Tomato Extract (Lycopene), Grape Seed Extract, D. Salina Extract (Betacarotene), Pine Bark Extract, and Vitamin E. There are no added preservatives, chlorinated solvents, and artificial flavors in this supplement, but it is advised to be taken only for people aged 18 and above.

I religiously took 1 capsule twice daily with meals, until I got sick a few weeks ago. I skipped taking the Gloww for a week due to antibiotics (as I didn't feel like taking too much medicine). After that, I went back to taking it twice a day.

Here are the results of my 2-month journey with Gloww. I'm not wearing any trace makeup on my face (well, except for my brows which I filled in with dark brown eyeshadow). I did not edit these also so you'd see the actual color.

After 2 Months

Yes, this shot makes me happy. My efforts were not put to waste since I saw results. This was taken about an hour after I woke up. Aside from taking Gloww, I think that not being stressed and getting enough sleep also played a big part on the improvement of my skin. The rough texture on my cheeks were minimized. It's still not perfect, but it's better now.

Before & After



Another thing worth mentioning is that my skin felt more supple, and some of the dry patches near my forehead are gone even if I skip moisturizers from time to time. (I have weird skin, some parts were dry and some parts are oil-slicked.) But my favorite result was having naturally rosy cheeks, compared to my previous before shot that was pale and pasty. On days that I run errands (like go to the supermarket), I don't feel the need to put on any makeup (except for my eyebrows again). I'm glad to have discovered something that works for my skin, and with no side effects.

If you're also planning to try this one out, it's advisable to take 2 capsules per day for 2 months for immediate results, and 1 capsule per day after 2 months.

Gloww is available in leading drugstores nationwide for P750.00 a box (with 30 capsules).

Love,
Helen

    1. Thank you, Jill! :) I'm not sure if it also works the same way for morena skin, but there are other bloggers with different skin tone as mine who are taking Gloww too. :)

  6. wow super rosy cheeks :) nice!

  7. I think it's quite pricey but then if this spares you from wearing make-up to make your skin look better, then it's worth it!

    And i'm so jealous about how your skin looks more radiant and glowy. And if it works for skin, then it probably improves hair too.

    Does it somehow improve health too?

    1. You have great skin to begin with. (Saw it in your blog pics.) :) Yes, I think the detox ingredients works to improve the health too. My friend takes this, and it improved her digestion, as in regulated her bowel movement. And this one also has Vitamin C for healing and prevention from illness. I'm just not sure about the improvement of my hair, since it was always dry due to abuse. Haha! :)

  9. Hi Helen,

    I just bought box of Gloww today, at hindi na ako makaintay ng 2 months to see result. Morena kasi ako at hindi ko na rin naman gustong pumuti, ang gusto ko na lang is maging mas bata ang skin ko. I am 43 years old na at na notice kong nagkakaroon naging dry skin na ako nagka line na ako sa bandang eyes at forehead. Sana maging effective ito sa akin, though alam ko na sa age ko talagang mabilis na ang pagbabgo specially sa skin.

    1. Hi Rangle, nung nag start ako, napansin ko na may konting dryness sa may gitna ng kilay ko kahit oily skin ako, pero after a few weeks nawala rin at naging normal yung part na yun. Ako rin, ayoko nagttake ng whitening na gamot, pero since vitamins lang naman itong Gloww go lang ako. Yung Mama ko gusto rin itry to. Sana mag work yung Gloww para sa yo. :)

  10. Wow I really love the improvements. ^^, Do you think that I can already take this? I am just 21 and wondering if I am still too young for this.

    1. Yes, Gloww can be taken by those who are above 18 years old. (I'm 22, btw.) :)

    1. I agree. I admit at first I was also scared to take any form of beauty supplements, but Gloww just works similarly to a vitamin, only for the skin. :)

  16. ok lng ba f isasabay ko yung gloww sa mosbeau? tig-iisang tablet lng a day w/ mosbeau? kc pale kc yung complexion ko lalo na sa may mukha makinis nga pro maputla

    1. I think it's okay, since Mosbeau is just mainly collagen, and this one's a dietary supplement.

  17. Hi, do I need to use Vitamin E if I take Gloww?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You aren't required to take vitamin E, but you may. The highest safe level of intake from supplements for adults is 1,500 IU/day for natural forms of vitamin E and 1,100 IU/day for the synthetic form.

  18. I'm really curious about this product. Do you know if these capsules can be bought online? out of stock kasi yung mga npuntahan kong mga pharmacy, mga 8 na pharmacies na ang napagtanungan ko. It made me even more determined to buy these supplements.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I don't think they sell online. Late March, Gloww was having stock issues, but they're having stocks replenished and Gloww will be available again in Mercury Drug, Watsons, South Star Drug, Rose Pharmacy, St. Joseph Drug and other leading drugstores nationwide soon.

      Delete
  19. Wow! :)

    I'm still just on my 2nd box, yet it actually worked quite well for me. No side effects. My face used to be pale, dry and tired looking. But ever since I took the supplement my cheeks started to have color in them, the uneven patches on my skin improved and the emerging zits weren't so large after. :) Was really happy with it!

  20. Hi Ask ko lang kung nakakatulong din to mag less ng pimples?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. This one's not a acne-treating capsule, so it may not lessen pimples.

  21. Paano if u stopt using the product? Ano ang possibling mangyari?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Nothing drastic. The skin would just probably lose the pinkish glow gradually. But that, I think you can maintain with eating right and getting enough rest.

  22. Hi is it safe or is it ok to take Gloww while taking other whitening supplement like gluta? Tnx!

    1. I'm not sure about that, better ask a derma first.

  23. Also is it true that for some users they got pimples after taking Gloww. I really want to try Gloww but im a bit scared that i might get pimples too.

    1. I didn't get pimples from this. Oh, Gloww gives samples pala on selected boutiques like Ensembles and Tomato.

    1. Sabi nung Facebook page ng Gloww: Gloww can only be taken by those who are 18 years old and above. If you want to start taking Gloww now, you still have to seek doctor's approval first.

  28. Hi! I'm new here.
    To be honest, I didn't know how I got here. I was reading about Avon's GSE (grape seed extract) and wanted to leave a comment there too. Hehe :)

    I've read some of the comments above. I already went to Gloww's facebook page and I think I saw there the 18 year old thing. Anyway, my question is, what company manufactures and distributes Gloww? Is is made in the Philippines or the US? Thanks in advance. ;)

    By the way, your skin looks better having that 'pinkish' glow. Good for you! Hope it works for me too. :)
