PEDRO SAYS
Ana Albiol: “As someone who had always worn foundation, one of the things that took some getting used to when I went to live in Bali was going without makeup. The high humidity made it totally unfeasible. As it turned out, I needn’t have worried as living on a tropical island gives you that year-round sun-kissed look I love. However, when I returned to Spain and went back to my old skincare habits, I discovered I no longer liked the feeling a full face of makeup gave me. This is why, after many years of friendship with Pedro, and being a long-time fan and believer in Twelve Beauty, I approached him with the idea of creating a product capable of reproducing that summertime golden glow on skin.”
Pedro: “As a formulator, Ana made it very easy for me because she knew exactly what she wanted; A moisturising, antioxidant serum-like product, which provided a gradual tanning effect but also an instant glow. As luck would have it, I had already experimented with some ingredients, so I had the end formula quite clear in my mind already. The most difficult thing was finding the exact blend of pigment to use and this is precisely one of the main benefits of the product – Its perfectly balanced formula adapts to all skin tones.”
And that’s GLOW ISLAND was born.
Laura –
Super light and easy to apply, either alone or I like to mix it with some of my moisturiser. The effect is soft & dewy. No residue or streaking. Magic!
