We chatted with FabFitFun\u2019s Senior Beauty Buyer, Sophia Sanchez, about why she loves Glow Recipe and what makes the <strong>Blackberry Retinol Blemish Serum<\/strong>, <strong>Papaya Cleansing Balm<\/strong>, and <strong>Strawberry BHA Pore Smoothing Blur Drops<\/strong> must-adds to your skincare routine. Take a scroll to learn more about this member-favorite brand, the summer box products, and a few need-to-know skincare tips!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What inspired you to get Glow Recipe in the Summer 2025 Box?<br \/>\n<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\nGlow Recipe\u2019s fruit-forward skincare is what inspired me to bring these 3 products in for Summer. Not only are they thematic with the juicy fruits of the season, but all three products complement each other and tell a fun skincare story for Summer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What makes Korean skincare different?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Korean skincare prioritizes the skin barrier and hydration, which gives us that signature glass skin look K Beauty became best known for. Going into Glow Recipe, all of their products are designed to really make the skin glow!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us what you love about the 3 incredible Glow Recipe items in the Summer Box.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I regularly use all 3 products as they serve such specific purposes in my skincare routine!\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I absolutely love cleansing balms and I think the Papaya Sorbet Enzyme Cleansing Balm is an excellent one as it takes off all makeup while using papaya enzymes to renew the skin.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Blackberry Retinol is a triple retinoid serum, but is so gentle and helps combat breakouts. Not all retinols are made the same, and I think this one is really effective.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Strawberry Blur BHA Drops are so underrated and really combines both skincare and makeup into one. The product not only helps minimize pores, but it is the best skin prep &#8211; making my skincare last all day and decreasing any excess oil.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you explain the hype around Retinol?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retinol is incredible because it treats breakouts, fine lines, wrinkles, and texture. Think of retinol as a major catalyst in skin turnover, that\u2019s why it gets such a reputation of being harsh on the skin. Glow Recipe carefully formulated their retinol to provide visible skin improvement without irritation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Share your thoughts on double cleansing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am a huge fan of double cleansing! To me, it is how we\u2019ve evolved fron makeup wipes and makeup removers. Double cleansing uses an oil based cleanser to melt stubborn makeup (even waterproof) followed by a standard cleanser.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is BHA and why should we be using it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BHA is a type of acid and chemical exfoliant that you find in skincare products. In our Glow Recipe Strawberry PHA product, the BHA helps penetrate pores and is a key product in reducing oil from the skin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is a hack for using Retinol when you have sensitive skin?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luckily, the Glow Recipe Blackberry retinol is designed for sensitive skin and the retinoids activate gently. If you are brand new to retinol and want to ease in, I\u2019d start by using every other night or mixing the serum in with your moisturizer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DIIGwmvPhhB\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DIIGwmvPhhB\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by FabFitFun (@fabfitfun)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Want in on the fun but not a member yet?
