I recently bought the Glow Elixir mini from Jess and her husband at the Fargo Village Summer event. After chatting for a while and explaining that I'm trying to be more conscious about what I put on my skin, I decided to give the Elixir a go. So far it's been great, feels amazing on my skin (most products end up drying my skin out, not this one though!) and gives my face a subtle freshness and glow. I'll definitely be buying the large version when I run out! Thank you so much :)
