What’s Inside The Glow Kit?

The Glow Kit is designed to simplify your glow routine by bundling three hero products: the Peptide Glazing Fluid, Highlight Milk 02, and the Pocket Brush. Each product plays a specific role in achieving that dewy, radiant look that Rhode is known for.

The Peptide Glazing Fluid is a lightweight, gel-like serum that hydrates and preps the skin, while Highlight Milk 02 adds a subtle, pearlized sheen. The Pocket Brush is a soft, dense brush designed to apply the highlight milk seamlessly. Together, they promise a quick and easy glow boost.

Let's dive into each product's performance, starting with the Peptide Glazing Fluid.

• The kit includes three full-size products, making it a great value for those new to glow routines.
• The Pocket Brush is travel-friendly and fits perfectly in your makeup bag.

Peptide Glazing Fluid: The Hydrating Base

The Peptide Glazing Fluid is the star of the kit, and for good reason. This serum is packed with peptides and glycerin, which work together to hydrate and plump the skin. Its gel texture absorbs quickly, leaving a smooth, non-sticky base that's perfect for layering.

After using it for two weeks, we noticed a significant improvement in skin texture. Fine lines appeared softened, and our skin felt more bouncy and hydrated. The glazing effect is subtle but noticeable—it gives a healthy, dewy finish without looking greasy.

• Apply 2-3 drops to damp skin after cleansing for best results.
• It layers well under makeup, acting as a primer for a luminous finish.

Highlight Milk 02: The Subtle Glow Booster

Highlight Milk 02 is the liquid highlighter that delivers a natural, lit-from-within glow. Unlike glittery highlighters, this one has a fine, pearlized shimmer that reflects light beautifully. It's buildable—apply a little for a subtle sheen or layer for a more intense glow.

We tested it on bare skin and over makeup. On bare skin, it gave a dewy, fresh look that lasted throughout the day. Over makeup, it added a beautiful luminosity without disturbing the foundation. The shade 02 is a champagne tone that suits most skin tones, but it's especially flattering on light to medium complexions.

The Pocket Brush is the perfect tool for application. Its soft bristles blend the product seamlessly, avoiding any streaks or patches.

• For a natural look, apply a small dot to the high points of your face: cheekbones, brow bone, and cupid's bow.
• Mix a drop with your foundation for an all-over glow.

Results: Before and After

After three weeks of consistent use, we saw noticeable changes. Our skin looked more radiant and even-toned. The combination of the Peptide Glazing Fluid and Highlight Milk 02 created a luminous base that made our skin look healthy and awake, even on low-sleep days.

We also noticed that the glow looked natural, not like we had applied a highlighter. It was more like a skincare-induced radiance. The hydration from the glazing fluid helped our makeup apply more smoothly, and the highlight milk gave a subtle lift to our features.

• Take a photo in natural light to track your progress—it's motivating!
• Consistency is key; use the kit daily for best results.

Is The Glow Kit Worth It?

When you consider the cost of buying each product separately, The Glow Kit offers a slight saving. But the real value is in the convenience and the curated experience. It's perfect for someone who wants to try Rhode's glow products without committing to full sizes.

That said, if you already own the Peptide Glazing Fluid or Highlight Milk 02, you might not need the kit. But if you're new to Rhode or want to refresh your glow routine, it's a worthwhile investment.

In our opinion, The Glow Kit delivers on its promise of a natural glow. The products are effective, easy to use, and the results are visible. It's a great addition to any skincare routine, especially for those who love a dewy aesthetic.

• The kit is also a great gift for skincare enthusiasts.

The Glow Kit from Rhode is a solid choice for anyone seeking a natural, lit-from-within glow. With effective ingredients, easy application, and visible results, it's worth the hype. If you're ready to elevate your glow game, we highly recommend giving it a try.
