When ClayCo sent their latest skincare innovation... the ClayCo Matcha Enzyme Scrub with AHA & BHA (70 gm) to TheGlitz office, we at TheGlitz knew we were in for something special. And, why not? ClayCo has built a well-earned reputation for delivering effective, thoughtfully formulated products, and we had every reason to expect this one would live up to the standard. And it did more than deliver... it impressed. From first application, it was clear: this scrub doesn’t just promise results, it achieves them. Our skin felt instantly smoother, fresher, and visibly more refined.
At TheGlitz, our tagline is 'Beyond the Superficial' and so we believe in digging deep, especially when it comes to beauty products. Beauty isn't just about what sparkles on the outside... it's about nourishment, self-care, and products that truly perform. So when The Skin Diet Company sent us a hamper featuring their latest launch 'Lip Barrier Butter', we knew it was time for a deep-dive lip service (pun totally intended!). Read on...
