Olehenriksen’s Instant Glow Moisturizer preps skin for makeup

Olehenriksen’s latest moisturizer looks to help users achieve a warm, gold glow inspired by the Scandinavian sun. 

The new Banana Bright+ Instant Glow Moisturizer, which preps skin for makeup, aims to visibly brighten the skin, as well as aid in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, the brand said. 

Containing Gold-Complexed Vitamin C and Banana Powder-Inspired + Pearlescent pigments, the moisturizer also is formulated with hyaluronic and polyglutamic acids, niacinamide and Scandinavian cloudberry seed oil.

“We are proud to expand our Truth Collection with Banana Bright+ Instant Glow Moisturizer, which draws inspiration from our hero product, Banana Bright+ Eye Crème,” said Riva Barak, vice president of product and technical Development at Kendo Brands. “The goal was to build on Banana Bright+ Eye Crème's best qualities, including its brightening capabilities and the highly effective use of Vitamin C, while creating a moisturizer ideal for makeup. Formulated with a combination of Gold-Complexed Vitamin C and Niacinamide to brighten, alongside Hyaluronic Acid and Scandinavian Cloudberry to hydrate, Banana Bright+ Instant Glow Moisturizer improves skin-firmness, fine lines, and dark spots while hydrating, brightening, and prepping the skin for makeup. Ultimately, this launch encourages a bright and joyful morning skincare routine that Olehenriksen is known to champion.”

Made to be quickly absorbed into the skin after application, the moisturizer features subtle notes of citrus. 

Retailing for $52, Olehenriksen’s Banana Bright+ Instant Glow Moisturizer is available for purchase online on the brand’s website, as well as in-store and online at Ulta Beauty. It will debut in-store and online at Sephora on July 7.
