The Radiant Glow Recipe

Searching for radiant skin? That’s you and us both! It goes a little further than just randomly picking a product that promises glowing skin, after all, the key lies within the synergy of powerful ingredients working together.

Enter the ROCCABOX Glow Up Beauty Box (launching 11th July)—a curated collection designed to illuminate your complexion and give you that lit-from-within glow. These products have been handpicked for their radiance-boosting ingredients, so let’s dive in and reveal how certain ingredients play a pivotal role in getting that glow.

Hero Ingredient 1: Vitamin E

You’ll find the Zelens Power E Serum is loaded with Vitamin E, the potent antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental damage. Alongside this it also provides deep hydration. Vitamin E is loved for its ability to repair and fortify the skin barrier, which is important in any skincare routine aimed at achieving a radiant glow. This Vitamin E packed serum also contributes to giving that plump and youthful finish to the skin, too.

Remember - apply your Vitamin E serum after cleansing (ideally on top of a hydrating mist), but before moisturiser and SPF.

Hero Ingredient 2: Vitamin C

Vitamin C is renowned for its brightening and anti-aging properties, and you’ll find the Rodial Vitamin C Brightening Mask nestled into our Glow Up box which packs a great Vitamin C punch!

This mask harnesses this powerhouse ingredient to its fullest potential. A Vitamin C infused mask works to diminish dark spots, even out skin tone, and boost collagen production. The result? A visibly brighter, more radiant complexion.

Apply a Vitamin C mask once a week (or twice if needing an extra boost).

Hero Ingredient 3: Glycolic Acid

Exfoliation is key to revealing radiant skin, as after all, you want the rough, dead skin cells to be turning over quick time. This is where glycolic acid comes in, but it’s worth remembering you don’t have to use this acid daily. A few times a week is enough to increase cell turnover. A gentle facial exfoliator to use is the Symbiosis Balancing Sorbet Exfoliator, which is your facial cleansing product in the Glow Up box. It combines with a blend of glycolic acid and papain (a natural enzyme derived from papaya), which penetrates deeply to refine skin texture and also minimises the appearance of pores.

Hero Ingredients: Hyaluronic Acid

Nourished and hydrated skin will give the brightest glow, so remember to tackle dryness and irritation, which can dull the complexion. Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, plumping the skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines, so it’s pretty much a skincare must-have ingredient.

For your Hyaluronic Acid fix, the Murad Quick Relief Moisture Treatment is tucked into our Glow Up box to act as a moisture treatment product to layer on after your serum.

The Ultimate Glow Recipe

Of course, it depends on your own personal skin type and concerns, and you may find that other ingredients like glycerin, niacinamide and retinol can help to combat your dull skin (especially those with pigmentation). But by starting with a concoction of Vitamins, like Vitamin C and Vitamin E, alongside hydrating Hyaluronic Acid and exfoliating Glycolic Acid, you’re on the right path for revealing your most radiant complexion.
