Words by Maggie Zhou · Updated on 15 Jul 2026 · Published on 23 Jun 2026
Glow Recipe has been at the forefront of the glowy skin trend since launching in 2014. Over time, the New York City-founded, K-beauty-inspired skincare label has also become known for formulas that harness the power of fruit.
Watermelon has always been a key ingredient for the brand (Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops, anyone?) and it’s been harnessed again in the vegan brand’s latest release: Watermelon Milk Peptide Glow Cushion Cream.
The hardworking, bouncy cream is jelly-like in texture, with a silky richness to it. Upon application, it sinks easily into the skin, locking in a hydrated glow. Plus, the packaging is refillable too.
