    All Glow'd Up Brighten + Clarify Serum

    7.3/ 10

    A competent brightening serum, though premium USD-linked pricing makes it a harder sell than local alternatives at a third of the cost.

      Practising in Pretoria, I've had decent feedback from clients using this for uneven concerns. Give it six to eight weeks before judging results.

      On my third bottle now. This is a permanent fixture in my routine at this point.

      Can I use this alongside a retinol at night or is that pushing it?

      Tried the more expensive version first — this gets me most of the way there for a fraction of the price.

      How dry it gets in Bloem and most products just sit on top of my skin without absorbing properly. This one doesn't do that.
