About Glow Recipe: Glow Recipe creates clean, fruit-forward, clinically-effective skincare for glowing skin. Anchored in Korean skincare philosophies, this sensorial skincare line develops innovative formulas that pair antioxidant-rich fruit with gentle yet powerful actives for real results and your healthiest, glowiest skin yet. Vegan. Cruelty-free.

Avocado

A nutrient-dense fruit rich in antioxidants such as Vitamin E & Vitamin C, which are known to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and environmental aggressors. Contains both avocado oil and avocado extract for the ultimate soothing and nourishing experience.

Encapsulated Retinol

Helps to rejuvenate the skin and achieve firmer-looking skin. Encapsulation allows the retinol to release smaller amounts at a time, making it more gentle than traditional retinol treatments.

Niacinamide

A water-soluble vitamin (B3) and antioxidant that works with the natural substances in your skin to help visibly improve the appearance of dullness, fine lines and wrinkles, and to help brighten the appearance of dark circles.

Coffeeberry

Packed with antioxidants, coffeeberry (the seed of the coffee plant) helps to soothe skin, and is a natural source of caffeine that can help reduce puffiness and the appearance of dark circles.

To Use As An Eye Sleeping Mask:

After cleansing, apply a pea-sized amount to the entire orbital eye area and gently pat into skin using ring finger for optimal absorption. Apply nightly. Do not layer with other eye creams. Use before applying serums.

To Use As A Daytime Eye Treatment:

Follow instructions above. Layer SPF that is safe for the eye area on top of the formula.

Where do I apply this in my routine?

Apply the eye sleeping mask after cleansing and toning, but before your treatment or serum steps. Most serums are not ophthalmologist tested, so our recommendation is to apply eye treatment beforehand to protect the delicate eye area. During the daytime, make sure to follow with sunscreen that’s safe for use near the eyes to avoid breakdown of the retinol. Avocado Melt Retinol Eye Sleeping Mask is dermatologist and ophthalmologist tested for safe use around the eye.

What benefits does retinol have for the eye area?

We used encapsulation technology to coat the retinol molecules in our eye mask with hydrating and soothing ingredients, which provides a myriad of benefits. This makes encapsulated retinol more effective and less irritating for the delicate eye area and because it releases slowly over time, its benefits work for longer.

What makes an eye sleeping mask different from eye creams?

An eye sleeping mask can be treated as an eye cream with much more potent ingredients. All the ingredients are amplified so your skin can reap the benefits during the night time where it is uninterrupted without external environmental factors. The Avocado Melt Eye Sleeping Mask contains encapsulated retinol which helps to smooth dry, rough skin around the eyes. We utilized a gentle encapsulated delivery system, advanced hydrogel base, and beneficial ingredients to create a nourishing, soothing mask that’s optimal for the sensitive skin around your eyes.

Please bring back the avocado facial mask

Truly potent yet effective. I miss the avocado melt facial mask so much. I would use the duo every other day as it was gentle enough and had drastically improved results with literally ZERO side effects. I’m yet to find a retinoid product that is able to balance noticeable results with no irritation. Like the mask would literally make my face softer, it was unheard of. I hope they bring the facial mask back like they did the banana moisturizer. Once upon a time glow recipe had amazing products that didn’t need incentivized reviews or influencers being paid to make products go viral.

!!!!

Listen, I will not shut up about this stuff. It works miracles. I have *very* heavy lidded eyes, and legit my very first morning after using it I saw a HUGE difference. The effect goes away if you stop using it (it's me, hi, I'm super forgetful esp at night) but oh my god it is worth the money. I will be (im)patiently waiting for a mini to be available
