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 :)

Beta glucans for the win! This really did wonders for my dry skin. I feel like it does more than HA alone. I have combination skin and eczema and I did not experience any issues regarding acne or irritation.

TXA - the wonder drug
I just started using the TXA+Z Radiance Serum so it’s a little too soon to tell if it will help with my dark patches but I think it’s starting to help. As a surgical RN, I am very familiar with TXA (given IV) and find it an amazing and very useful drug in the OR so I have no doubt it will be beneficial on my skin.
Most effective clean aluminum-free plant-based deodorant
I've been using clean plant-based deodorant for a decade, and this seems to do the best job of controlling odors that develop because of hormones, stress, and exercise. When I saw the size of the bottle, I checked to make sure I hadn't ordered the trial size; however, this tiny bottle delivers a lot in a small dot applied to each armpit and will likely last several weeks.

Absolutely Love this oil!!
I have quite a variety of carrier oils from GOW that I rotate depending on what my skin needs and love each and every one, but I absolutely love the way my skin looks and feels when I use the prickly pear, to me it feel light and smoothing, has the faintest natural smell which I love in the carrier oils, and just feels so great on the skin!! I love using it under my eyes especially!!!

Love the size and scent
I'm researching on updating my cleanser routine as periodically skin needs change. I bought a sample and have used 2-3 times. This cleanser foams once applied on wet skin. The pumpkin scent is not overpowering and my face feels soft. The sample size gives one plenty to determine if its right for you. I'll use it to change up my routine over the winter months.

Wonderful, gentle serum for acne
I absolutely love GoW's Salicylic Acid 2% (Alcohol Free) serum. On my skin, it prevents/reduces acne in the gentlest way possible - it's calming, moisturizing, and reduces redness, all while keeping my pores clearer.
Hi Jennifer!
This is actually very exciting to hear. The winter weather kills almost everyone's skin.
Thank you for taking the time to let everyone know.
Warmly,

Despite having dry eczema prone skin on my body, heavily occlusive oils are a huge no. This oil was THE best thing to happen to my sad winter skin. The "linoleic content" in sunflower seed and the other oils isn't just to sound fancy, it's actual science in action. And then the bit of avocado and cocoa butters add just enough luxurious nourishment and my skin is left feeling conditioned without feeling suffocated or like I need to itch off the product! Tried some other brand oils in between, but nothing compared. Thank you GoW for making these products that actually work. I could cry.
Hi S.
This was a beautiful note to read. Thank you for trusting us with your skin and for sharing such a thoughtful experience. We’re so glad this blend has supported you when your skin needed it most.
Thank you for being part of our community.
Warmly, Your GoW Crew
