Humectant serum base
8% glycerin, butylene glycol and panthenol support a comfortable, water-rich application.
Glød
Repair & Soothing Oleogel Serum
A fragrance-free hydrating serum with ectoin and a small squalene and bisabolol oil bead. Choose Glød for barrier repair support and soothing comfort.
Product promise
A small oil bead focused on repair and calm.
The formula is organised as a water-rich serum and a single structured oleogel bead. Each part has a defined role rather than a decorative ingredient story.
Oleogel bead
Squalene and bisabolol sit within the distinct structured phase described in the current batch record.
Single serum role
Glød is the repair-support and soothing choice within the single serum step.
Evidence status
Performance Testing
No finished-product performance result is claimed here until the relevant validation work is complete and documented.
Suspension uniformity
Particle distribution and redispersion require documented stability work.
Physical stability
pH, appearance, odour and long-term stability require assessment.
Dropper compatibility
Dose consistency and pack interaction require scale-up review.
This section describes the evidence needed before final commercial claims. It is not a report of completed testing.

“Glød was developed around a calm aqueous serum and one small oil bead for repair-support and soothing care.”
The development direction focuses on a small stable oil bead, soothing application, controlled redispersion and compatibility with moisturiser. It occupies the same routine slot as Rav Perle and PinPerle.
