Glow Recipe Site →Amazon →Sephora →Summary of Reviews
Glow Recipe's Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops are a light gel serum that hydrates and leaves a noticeable glow, with a cooling sensation and watermelon scent. Professional beauty reviewer Charisse Daily keeps it in her kit for mature clients and says concealer "lays beautifully" over it, but lynjiang finds it not worth the hype, noting the niacinamide does nothing and other primers give more glow. Sensitive skin types should patch test due to fragrance.
