FOR someone who is not into makeup, a product that can make skin glow without the need of putting some layers of powder and cream is such a relief.

Honestly, I am not an expert when it comes to applying makeup. That is precisely the reason why I no longer bother to put on some whenever I go out. Also, wearing makeup, for me, feels heavy on the face, especially when the weather is too humid. As a result, a tube of lip and cheek tint has been my only constant ally all these years.

When I saw a post about two products that can make skin look luminous, I immediately got interested to try them. Kglow’s luminous face serum and luminous face tint seem appealing, especially that a number of my friends shared their testimonies about these newest beauty partners.

In just a week of using the serum and tint, I have proven that all of my friends’ reviews were true! I have observed that my skin glows more naturally. It is softer and more supple, too!

To know more about these new products from Kayesthetics, here is my interview with its owner, the beauteous April Kaye Garino:

FN: What motivated you to come up with these new products?

Kaye: Being in the beauty industry, people expect us to look good ourselves.

I, myself, who usually wear makeup on a daily basis wanted to have that product that could give me a rest from doing so everyday. I've always dreamt of having glowing skin, even skin tone, glowing look minus the need to put on make up.

Also, being always on the go, I don't have too much time to spend on layering skincare routines, multipurpose products were always in my must-have list!

And I know many Filipinas can relate with my concerns. Our clients always ask for these kind of products too! That kind of product that can achieve that fresh no makeup look.

Thus, instead of searching for other products, I have decided to push through this skincare line! I was excited that we could produce a Make up and skin care product in one!

The one that I know would help my skin concerns as well as many other Filipinas/Asians.

FN: What makes these new products unique and competitive?

Kaye: The Kglow Luminous Serum and Face Tint are products that, I would say, a mix of my favorite skin care ingredients packed altogether in every drop.

The Serum is a high nutrient, skin repairing versatile product that powerfully moisturizes, strengthens and brightens skin. It is a super hydrating, deeply penetrating plumping serum. It is also a highly concentrated serum made with natural ingredients that delivers vital nutrients to soothe, soften, hydrate and makes the skin glow!

Formulated to promote radiant complexion and prevents signs of aging too!

For the Face tint, it is enriched with antioxidants, a skin perfecting tinted moisturizer made with natural ingredients that nourishes the complexion and adjusts to all skin tones for a glowing natural looking finish.

The mix of ingredients definitely makes these products unique and is only found in the Kglow Skincare series! Best of all, it is made with natural ingredients. Yup, they are organic!

FN: Who were the specific target buyers you had in mind while coming up with these new products?

Kaye: They were originally made for our Kglow Procedure Clients. Kglow is our signature basic microneedling with semipermanent foundation procedure. After the session, I always suggest our clients to use mild skincare products, go makeup free, moisturize their skin and protect it from the Sun.

The next question they ask immediately is, "So where can we buy or what products can give me those benefits?"

With this, I saw the need to create products that could answer their questions.

So, my first specific target buyers I had in mind were people that want that moisturized, makeup-free look and at the same time that could beautify and protect their skin minus the hassle of layering a lot of products.

FN: Who do you cater to now?

Kaye: It was experienced first hand by our Kayesthetics clients and later on when they have shared the product experience online, I now get orders from different areas nationwide.

Most buyers now are women of different ages, different skin tones and skintypes, have sensitive skin and those who are tired of layering skincare products and putting on makeup.

FN: When did you start producing these products commercially?

Kaye: We started producing them commercially just in October this year, and positive feedback and reviews have really been coming in after even the first try!

FN: What beauty problems to these products address?

Kaye: With the mix of wonderful ingredients of the products, the serum can help skin suffering from dryness, dullness, dark skin tone, oiliness, large pores as it reveals a refined and moisturized, smooth, softer and fairer complexion.

While the face tint also can cater to almost all skintypes specially acne prone and sensitive skin. If you want silky smooth, glowy skin, more radiant, youthful look and shiny white baby skin and can cater to all skin tones, this product can help them.

The Kglow Luminous Face Serum sells for P350 (15ml), while the Kglow Luminous Face Tint costs P480 (40 ml). To experience these affordable yet effective beauty beshies, you may contact the Facebook page Kayesthetics Semipermanent Makeup Specialist Academy & Procedures.
