When large jars of aloe vera gel began making their way to the Philippines from South Korea about a decade or so ago, it resonated deeply with the Filipino beauty community. It was a match made in skincare heaven - a product that was not only lightweight and moisturizing but also soothing, perfectly matching the needs of those living in a tropical climate. This laid the groundwork for the embrace of similar products, such as the Hello Glow Soothing Gels lineup, available on Shopee Mall, which have since become staples in the beauty routines of many Filipinos.
These gels, coming in generous 300 mL jars, offer a modern twist on the classic aloe vera formula, infusing it with active ingredients designed to target a variety of skin concerns while remaining budget-friendly. Let’s discuss each!
Vitamin C Serum Soothing Gel (Php 299 / 300 mL): This gel combines the hydrating power of a traditional soothing gel with the brightening benefits of Vitamin C. It’s perfect for those looking to fade dark spots and achieve a radiant complexion, all while keeping the skin cool and comfortable.
Collagen Serum Soothing Gel (Php 176 / 300 mL): Aimed at those seeking to boost their skin's elasticity and moisture, this gel is infused with collagen. It helps to plump the skin, aiming to reduce the appearance of fine lines and leaving the skin feeling soft and supple.
Sunflower Serum Soothing Gel (Php 299 / 300 mL): Sunflower oil is known for its soothing and calming properties, making this gel an excellent choice for sensitive or irritated skin. It moisturizes without causing any heaviness, offering a light and refreshing feel.

Aloe Vera Serum Soothing Gel (Php 176 / 300 mL): Going back to the roots of what started the trend, this gel focuses on the pure, cooling benefits of aloe vera, enhanced with additional hydration from the serum. It’s ideal for after-sun care or whenever your skin needs a calming boost.
What sets these gels apart is their understanding of the Philippine climate and the needs of Filipina skin. They're designed to be versatile - great as a body moisturizer but also gentle enough for your face. The fact that they're budget-friendly is just the cherry on top.
This embrace of lightweight, hydrating gels reflects a broader understanding within the Filipino consciousness: the importance of skincare products that not only address specific concerns but do so in a way that's compatible with the local climate and lifestyle. Hello Glow’s range of Soothing Gels is a testament to this shift, offering a tailored approach to skincare that resonates with the needs of Filipinos today.
