Magic mud

SOCIAL & LIFESTYLE

It started as a family and rather messy affair — mixing and filling mud in little white jars on the coffee table in their Hollywood home. Then, back in 2010, Glenn and Shannon Dellimore couldn't have anticipated that they would later have a series of skin products to serve consumers around the world.

The first users were the couple's actor friends, who spread the word in Tinseltown, where the magic mud became a quick-fix to obtain camera-ready skin.

The Dellimores named the Hollywood beauty secret Glamglow, and the range is now stocked in Sephora stores in Bangkok.

Which product to smother on the face depends on the individual's skin condition — Thirstymud quenches dehydrated skin while Youthmud exfoliates and restores radiance for the Glamglow effect.

The mud base basically serves as a skin-detoxifier. Adding real pieces of green tea leaves into the mud became the patented Teaoxi, delivering antioxidants to counteract ageing skin.

Containing the green tea ingredient, French sea clay and exfoliating volcanic pumic rock, Youthmud is left on the skin for 10 minutes and then removed with water in circular motions to enhance exfoliation, leaving a fresher complexion.

Like Hollywood has Superman, Glamglow offers clinically-developed Supermud, a skin-clearing treatment which counteracts breakouts, black and white heads, razor bumps, and even in-growing hairs.

This formula can be applied as a full mask or a spot treatment.

Deep-cleansing can also be performed in five to 10 minutes with a thin layer of the new Powermud Dualcleanse Treatment containing Claytox, a four-clay blend featuring Brazilian white clay. When wet with water, the mud-to-oil formula transforms into a cleansing oil infused with skin-nourishing pear, pine, frankincense and myrrh oils.

In general, Glamglow encourages a muddy beauty routine two to three times a week. Thirstymud can also be used as an overnight mask and in-flight treatment to return to land with hydrated skin.
