Time to Break Up With Biotin; What a catfish!

Glow UP: A Beauty Formula That Starts Where It Should—the Gut

Let’s get one thing straight: breakouts, shedding, bloating? They’re not random. They’re connected. That’s why we made Glow UP—a no-fluff, gut-first beauty supplement designed to support hair, skin, and gut health in the order your body actually works.

And while the industry keeps hyping biotin like it’s a miracle for hair, the science doesn’t back it up—unless you’re deficient (which is rare). Glow UP takes a more comprehensive approach, targeting the real reasons your hair, skin, and digestion might be struggling: inflammation, nutrient absorption, and structural support.

This isn’t your average collagen dusted with glitter. Glow UP is a system-level formula stacked with science-backed ingredients that work smarter, not harder.

1. Gut First, ALWAYS!

If your gut’s out of sync, your skin and hair are going to let you know. Think breakouts, flare-ups, fallout. Glow UP starts with gut repair and resilience:

• Boswellia Serrata Extract helps calm inflammation in the gut lining and promotes mucosal healing in inflammatory conditions, supporting barrier repair and reduced systemic flare-ups.*

• MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) supports gut lining integrity, reduces oxidative stress, and acts as a sulfur donor to help detoxification pathways tied to skin and hormonal balance.*

• Calcium Carbonate helps buffer excess stomach acid and sets the stage for better digestion and nutrient absorption—especially minerals and fat-soluble vitamins essential for skin and hair.*

• Vitamin D3 + K2 work synergistically to regulate the immune system and reinforce tight junctions in the intestinal lining while supporting a balanced microbiome.*

• Boron Citrate enhances D3 activity, contributes to mucosal immunity, and supports estrogen and testosterone balance—all of which affect hair and skin quality.*

A stable, supported gut lays the foundation for better nutrient uptake, reduced inflammation, and a visible shift in skin clarity and scalp health.

2. Skin That Acts as Good as It Looks

Your skin is your largest detox organ—and it shows what your gut can’t hide. Glow UP supports collagen production, barrier defense, and recovery from inflammatory triggers:

• Type I & III Collagen (from marine and bovine sources) work together to improve skin elasticity, firmness, hydration, and fine line reduction while reinforcing dermal density.*

• Type V Collagen helps organize and stabilize collagen fibers, enhancing smoothness and structure—key for skin that’s strong, not saggy.*

• Type X Collagen (from egg shell membrane) plays a role in skin remodeling and healing—making it highly effective post-aesthetic treatments like microneedling, peels, or lasers.*

• Curcumin, White Willow Bark, and Boswellia combine to ease inflammatory skin conditions (think: acne, rosacea, and reactive redness) while helping the skin recover from oxidative stress.*

• Astaxanthin is a potent carotenoid antioxidant that supports collagen preservation, protects against UV damage, and promotes smoother texture and even tone.*

This is skin support for functional repair, not surface cover-up.

3. Hair That Grows Like It Means It

Hair is a high-maintenance tissue—it requires hormonal balance, nutrient sufficiency, and a calm inflammatory environment to grow and stay strong. Glow UP supports hair from the inside, strand by strand:

• Type V Collagen supports the structure of the hair follicle sheath and shaft, improving growth potential and fiber integrity.*

• MSM delivers highly bioavailable sulfur, a critical building block for keratin production, helping to increase strand resilience and shine while reducing breakage.*

• Astaxanthin improves microcirculation in the scalp, reduces oxidative stress at the follicle, and may support prolonged growth phases.*

• Boron regulates key sex hormones that influence hair growth patterns (especially in androgen-related shedding) and works synergistically with D3 to enhance follicular support.*

• Vitamin D3 plays a documented role in hair cycling; deficiency has been directly linked to telogen effluvium (a type of temporary hair loss that occurs when a large number of hair follicles shift prematurely from the growth phase (anagen) into the resting phase of the hair cycle), poor follicle regeneration, and alopecia areata (this type hair loss is also tied to immune dysfunction, which requires support for immune balance and is essential for protecting follicles from autoimmune overreaction. GLOW UP includes Boswellia Serrata which Inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokines and supports immune modulation in gut and skin tissues)

Glow UP doesn’t just patch up dull strands—it supports the biological processes that grow better ones.

Bottom Line

Glow UP is your gut-skin-hair solution in one easy step. It works from the inside, in the right order, with ingredients that actually do something regardless of the root (ha!) cause!
