Garden of Wisdom's Get Your Glow Back Turmeric Mask is crafted to effectively address blackheads and acne blemishes while also targeting dark spots and hyper-pigmentation concerns. Turmeric, renowned for its healing properties, not only helps to maintain skin moisture but also possesses natural cleansing attributes. We highly recommend trying out this product, as it's consistently among our best-selling offerings.
NOTE When first opened, this mask tends to have a layer of liquid. Think of Greek yogurt with a liquid layer on top. We have changed the consistency of this mask many times but have decided to stick with our recent formula. The liquid will also keep the ingredients moist. Stir it and enjoy.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

Tetrahydrocurcuminoids are phenolic in nature, acting as antioxidants, protecting against free radicals and preventing the generation of free radicals. Unlike yellow curcuminoids, THC is a colorless compound which can, therefore, be used in color free cosmetic products that currently employ conventional and synthetic antioxidants. Tetrahydrocurcumin has been shown to efficiently inhibit tyrosinase. As such, it is an effective skin lightening agent with multifunctional topical benefits. It has been tested to determine its safety for topical use with no irritant or sensitization side effects.The anti-inflammatory effects of THC combined with their efficient antioxidant action render them useful as ingredients in anti-aging formulations, skin lightening and brightening products and topical formulations designed to maintain general skin health and integrity.

It feels so gentle but it has really helped smooth out my skin. Just ordered my second batch!
Allison,
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback for our Get Your Glow Back Mask. It has garnered positive feedback from users who appreciate its gentle yet effective formulation. Many have reported that the mask helps smooth out their skin, leading to noticeable improvements in texture and appearance. One user mentioned, 'After one use, my face felt softer and appeared less dull. After repeated use, my acne scars are starting to fade and my complexion is better.'
Again, thank you for taking the time to review the mask.

So this mask has never left my face irritated! First turmeric mask to do so since I use tret, AHA, BHA alternating weekly. I usually find my face is super sensitized from these for me to use anything with a scent.
However, this one plays fine with all of the above treatments. It does have a scent, like turmeric, but I do not mind it. I know turmeric can stain but I've left this on for a few hrs by mistake and had no issue with staining or irritation. Masks like this are a luxury item for me but I would definitely repurchase. :)
Thank you so much for this review! :) WE love it!

Gentle and very effective
Both myself (over 50) and my teen daughter use this mask. Its strong enough to clean up my skin and gentle enough for her. She has pretty significant hormonal acne. And although we haven't exactly figured out how to get rid of it entirely, we are getting much help from GOW and this product in particular. It really clears the dead skin cells and reduces my daughter's blackheads. Thanks, GOW!
We very much appreciate your review! :) Thank you!

Calming and soothing... plus smoothing and hydrating!
Woke up with angry skin today - very red and tight and cheeks a bit sore to the touch. I had this in my beauty arsenal for a few months and just remembered I had this when searching my vanity for something to help. Applied a generous amount and let it dry and sit for about 20 minutes. Rinsed off and much to my surprise the redness was GONE! And those crinkles from dry skin? - Also GONE. Believe me, I will never forget about this little hero again and has been upgraded from the back of the vanity drawer to sitting ON the vanity! :)
Thank you so very much for your review! We appreciate it :)

best mask
love this mask - creamy structure, nice in smell, skin feels amazing after!
We're so glad you are loving this mask! Thank you :)
This is another favorite! Didn't think product was doing much until my husband mentioned that my face looked smoother and more even. He also has started using it now and has gotten many compliments. Doesn't burn or sting like ascorbic acid. I use 3-4 times a week at night only and love that it contains squalane because it gives me a little extra moisture.

Great skincare for my acne prone skin
I have combo acne prone skin and have a hard time finding products that don't break me out but are moisturizing enough. GoW has been a game changer.

not sure if this is the cleanser for me
Upon doing the cottonball test this item did not clean my face properly for me . I only use jojoba oil and concealer in a few places. I do believe it has quality ingredients, I have mixed it w the Skin Friendly Cucumber cleanser as to make that cleanser more gentle for MY high maintenance skin.

Healing and smoothing
This serum has really reduced my redness! It's especially helpful any time my skin is freaking out - it seems to reduce the time it takes for breakouts to heal. The hydration and consistency are exactly what I needed as an extra step between my hydrating toner and moisturizer. Also, a friend I was catching up with actually commented on my "glow" - I thought that was only something that happened to people with naturally good skin.

Fantastic product
I have very red and easily irritated skin. This product annihilates the redness overnight. I had been really struggling to find something that helped and this was the only thing that did. It didn't irritate my skin in any way when applied. If there's a moisturizer to match in the future, I volunteer as the guinea pig lol. Thank you for a wonderful product.

Rose Stem Cell & Peptide Serum - Floral Peptide Infusion for Renewed Skin Vitality

This serum saved my skin!
I have developed rosacea in the last couple of years and I’ve struggled to find any products that truly helped heal my skin. My skin was dry, irritated, and felt like sandpaper. It seemed like nothing would absorb or make my skin feel hydrated. I’ve seen a dermatologist and have been prescribed multiple creams that have made my skin feel worse and I could never stick with them. I’ve used GoW products on and off for years but finally got fed up with the prescription route and decided to find a natural routine and stick with it. I’ve been using this serum twice a day with an oil blend as moisturizer and also incorporated a hypochlorous acid spray. The rosacea serum has been the thing that has saved my skin. In less than 2 weeks, my skin is no longer red and no longer feels like sandpaper. It’s plump and hydrated. Before, on close inspection, it looked like every pore on my face was clogged and had a layer of red, dry skin. That is nearly gone. This serum is incredible.

There's something about coconut vinegar that just hits right...
I LOVE to close my eyes and spray all of the Coco tonics on my face after washing it. It smells amazing and makes it so less is more as you move forward with serums and creams. It's like self-care in a spritzer.

The scent to rival all scent-sations!
It is the most DIVINE of all the serums I've tried at GoW, not only due to it's efficacy, but the scent takes you straight into a rose garden on a mild spring day. Lovely feeling on my skin and to my senses.

Hi Vera

It's crazy how our skin can make or break our days.
Wishing you the best,

Thought to try this for the first time and I don’t regret it. It feels hydrating and refreshing. The spray works great for reapplication.
Vera,
Thank you for the positive review. It's incredible how something as simple as hydration can make our days
seem to feel better.
Wishing you the best in your skincare journey.

The Garden of Wisdom AHA + Kojic Acid Serum has been a true staple in my skincare routine
The Garden of Wisdom AHA + Kojic Acid Serum has been a true staple in my skincare routine. I only realized how effective it was when I couldn’t find it for a while—during that time, my skin really struggled. I even tried another serum with a similar formula, but it just didn’t deliver the same results. Now that I’ve found this serum again, I’m beyond happy! My skin is already showing great improvement. It keeps my acne under control and tackles my stubborn post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) better than anything else I’ve tried. This product is definitely a keeper!
Oh, Vera!
This is such great feedback, thank you so much. That's funny (not in a humorous way, though) that you had to run out to recognize its potential. So completely understandable! It happens to all of us.
Thank you so much for sharing this important feedback with others.
Markey
