Light up your bared-‐skin New Year selfies with b.glen! What makes b.glen effective in brightening is the incorporation of anti-‐aging ingredients with hydroquinone derivative ingredient known as Arbutin. Arbutin is a skin-‐lightening agent that is used to lighten areas of darkened skin and prevents formations of melanin. However, hydroquinone derivatives can be highly unstable and difficult to formulate. To tackle this, b.glen uses QuSome®, an exclusive skin penetrating technology which encapsulates Arbutin and anti-‐aging ingredients into nano-‐sized particles. Each particle has a diameter between 70 to 150 nanometers, and it stabilizes the once unstable ingredient.
QuSome® also ensures the nano-‐capsules penetrates through the skin’s surface to the dermal layer and delivers them deep inside the skin. The ingredient remains there while slowly breaking down its multilayer nano-‐capsule and releasing the ingredients over a period of time. This is known as “slow release mechanism” of beauty ingredients resulting in lasting effects in the skin. Hydroquinone is known not to be used during the day, but Arbutin protects the skin while being activated during the day. It keeps the skin tone brighter by blocking any deep UV damages from the sun. This is the secret to b.glen’s effectiveness.
By using tiny capsules instead of hydroquinone in its raw form, the possibility of irritation is reduced, and the stable hydroquinone derivative can be most effective. This leads the skin to be on the path for perfect complexion.
b.glen believes firmly in, “If an active ingredient doesn’t penetrate the skin, it won’t work. If an active ingredient is delivered precisely, it will be effective.” It ensures that QuSome® is very stable and works with various formulations for lotions, gels and creams. It is considered very mild in nature and suited even for people with sensitive skin. This is what differentiates b.glen from other skincare brands. QuSome® works because the ingredient is not just applied on. It penetrates and delivers the ingredients to where they are needed the most.
With this, b.glen can tackle the most common ageing issues, from dark spots, acne, large pores, dry or sagging skin, to fine lines and wrinkles.
The Brightening Care Series consists of 5 simple steps using 5 products that offer unprecedented delightful skin by delivering only necessary highly advanced ingredients to a pinpointed location using penetration technology. All of b.glen’s products are 100% made in Japan and imported into Singapore, and this is how they solve your skin problems.
STEP 1: Remove Impurities
Clay Wash is a natural clay based facial cleanser using Montmorillonite clay. Montmorillonite clay acts like a natural magnet to remove dirt, dead skin cells and oxidized excess sebum without stripping off your natural oils and moisture. When combined with key ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, squalene and other beauty ingredients, the result is a multitasking and versatile facial cleanser with a soft gel like texture. The Clay Wash is ideal for a wide range of skins from oily, sensitive, anti-‐aging and adult acne. Clay Wash (150g/5.29o.z.) – Retail Price: S$57
STEP 2: Moisturize
The QuSome Lotion has been clinically proven to moisturize up to 17 hours a day. Thanks to the Salicornia Herbacea extract that comprised of rich minerals and moisturizing ingredients to help build a healthy barrier function. This lotion also carries the name “QuSome®” for a reason. The technology used is special and is an advanced form of QuSome®. It is known as “Charged Qusome®”. Normally, QuSome® encapsulates ingredients already found in the product. “Charged Qusome®” latches onto the next beauty ingredient you apply and penetrates it deep into your skin. This lotion compliments the next product you use while moisturizing your skin. It is a must have for any skincare routine to maximize the effects of any skincare brand.

STEP 4: Brighten
QuSome White Essence protects and reverses UV damages for spotless skin. This product is considered to be an advanced serum due to being a hydroquinone derivative that can be used during the day. This ingredient helps protect your skin from the formation of melanin and dark spots. The rich texture of the QuSome White Essence staves the causes of dullness, dehydrated skin, capable of maintaining a spotless complexion that radiates. An essential step in creating transparent skin is to increase the skin’s natural ability to reset the damaging effects by ultraviolet light. QuSome White Essence creates this transparency by reaching into the depths of the skin and resets UV damages.
