Powered by Mangosteen
- In stock
Glow Up Genius™ is a lightweight gel-cream moisturizer built for summer: no grease, no heaviness, just hydration that actually lasts through heat and humidity. Formulated for oily, combination, and melanin-rich skin that needs real moisture without the weight.
Created for skin recovering from Skin Crashout™, when overuse and overstimulation leave skin feeling reactive or unpredictable. Especially in summer.
(See FAQ for details.)
Who it's for
- Oily and combination skin that gets shinier in summer.
- Melanin-rich skin that needs hydration without clogging.
- Anyone whose current moisturizer feels like too much once the temperature rises.
- Skin that's been through too many actives and needs to reset.
Why summer specifically
Most moisturizers were formulated for dry climates. Glow Up Genius™ was inspired by the tropical Asia-Pacific, where humidity is relentless, oily skin is the norm, and lightweight hydration isn't a trend, it's a necessity. This formula was built for that environment. Which means it was built for your summer.
Texture & finish
Formulated without added fragrance, essential oils, or masking scents. A subtle, natural scent may be present from raw materials, including antioxidant-rich mangosteen peel extract, and fades quickly after application.
- Cooling gel-cream that melts in quickly
- Breathable, non-sticky finish that layers well under SPF and makeup
- Leaves skin softly glowy, not greasy
Key benefits
- Instant glow: Restores a healthy-looking radiance without the oily film.
- Deep hydration: Humectants and barrier-supporting emollients draw in and lock down moisture so skin stays bouncy for hours.
- Antioxidant support: Mangosteen and our Glow Up Genius™ moisturizing trio help defend skin from the look of stressors like long days, screens, and city life.
- Skin-friendly formula: Designed to be gentle enough for daily use, morning and night.
How to use
- Use on clean skin after toner/essence and serums.
- Apply a pea-to-nickel sized amount to face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area.
- Use AM and PM.
- In the morning, follow with SPF. At night, use as your last step.

Real feedback from our community.
VIOLA ★★★★★ Clearing, without stripping “I switched my whole skincare routine in early December and had a really bad breakout. I cut everything else out and have only been using Glow Up Genius™ — and it’s been clearing up a lot.”
AMANDA ★★★★★ Light, but hydrating “Glow Up Genius™ has quickly become one of those products I reach for without thinking. It feels light but gives really good hydration, sinks in nicely, and leaves my skin looking fresh and healthy rather than shiny.”
ILMA ★★★★★ Gentle from the start “It usually takes time for my skin to get used to new products, but this one felt great right away. It’s super light, breathable, and gentle on my skin.”
PINK ★★★★★ Plays well with makeup “It absorbs really well, doesn’t feel greasy, and my makeup actually sits better on top of it. It keeps my skin hydrated without making me oily.”

- KDKayla D. M.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoIt helped repair my skin barrier!!!
I was in a tough situation with my skin where it was so dehydrated, raw and uncomfortable. But I used the Glow Up Genius moisturizer consistently for a month and the hydration it gave my skin was insane! Glowy skin without the fragrance :)
- PPinkVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoThe Moisturizer My Makeup Actually Loves!
Switching moisturizers can be hit or miss, but this one made the transition so easy! For context, I have oily, combination skin, and this was a really easy switch from my previous moisturizer - minimal adjustment period, no breakouts, just my skin feeling good from the start.
What I love most is how lightweight it feels. It absorbs quickly with no greasiness throughout the day, making it perfect for daytime especially going into spring and summer. Also the best part is - my makeup has honestly never looked better. It just glides on top and actually stays put.
The scent is a bonus- I usually skip anything with fragrance but this is the exception. It's subtle, clean, without being overwhelming or irritating.
This one's staying in my routine!
- JHJovita H.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoLightweight but really hydrating!!
Absorbs quickly, feels lightweight, and keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day. My makeup also sits better on top of it. It’s been really good for my acne-prone skin—no breakouts so far. Simple and effective.
Love the bandana as well!! Super cute ❤️
- AAmandaRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoMy everyday staple
It is now part of my routine. Gentle face wash, toner, sunscreen, FLONATIX!! and nothing else. I used to apply lots of serum (mostly The Ordinary) but no longer need to because Flonatix gives the same result.
I don’t need to break the bank and buy a bunch of serums anymore. Also no need to spend time to apply so many different items.
My skin is glowing better too. I think it’s because it just fits perfectly to my skin texture. Kinda never sure whether mine is dry or oily, but now my skin just GLOWS 🥹
