Hello dearies! How's your day? I've been sweating a lot today and it only means summer has officially started. Do you agree? If you're excited to hit the beach and get that glowing sun-kissed skin, let me share with you my thoughts on what made my skin even toned and glowing. I hope this review will serve as a guide and a recommendation on what whitening supplement you should consider taking after getting tan this summer. Because there are so many glutathione brands in the market today, I'm sure you're already confused what to choose. Before I start the review, I want you to know that I already have a fair complexion to begin with that's why I've seen no drastic change in the whitening or lightening department overall BUT there's a significant change in the discoloration that I had after a frying incident. I've also maintained my skin tone even if I'm exposed to sun in the afternoon. If you'll ask me, I'll be satisfied with a product that will give me a positive result rather than promises even though it will take a month or two. As for skin whitening, the effect of one product varies from person to person. The length of whitening depends on the amount of melanin present in the skin. For example, dark skinned individuals need a continuous use of whitening pills for more than six months before they can see the maximum effect. So I tell you now that taking whitening pills doesn't give you an overnight result. Patience is a virtue so with continuous use, you'll see positive effects.
Here's a review of the product that GNC Live Well Philippines sent me last February. It's the Vitamin Plus GlutaBright glutathione and this is one of their best-selling products. Vitamin Plus GlutaBright is great for keeping your skin healthy and young plus you get more free radical fighting antioxidants than the usual glutathione combinations in the market. You get GNC quality all over. When I received the product, I was a bit shocked when I saw the price but after taking it religiously for a month I can say that you get what you pay for. GNC products are known for their quality that's why I regard this product a cost-effective one. To know more about the product click CONTINUE READING and see my honest to goodness review :)

| GNC VitaminPlus GlutaBright Mustard color caplets- I used the term caplet because this is a tablet in capsule form. It's solid and there's a shiny coating outside for ease of swallowing. |
 |
| GNC Vitamin Plus GlutaBright- AFTER 40 days Here's my right hand. 40 days ago, that light brown circle you see in my hand was very dark. It resulted from the oil that ousted while I was frying my son's merienda. My apologies, I wasn't able to take the before photo. Based on the photo above, the mark has lightened and almost invisible unless you take a closer look in real life. |
What I like:
- Sealed upon purchase.
- Comes in a handy bottle complete with product information.
- Can pass as odourless. This supplement doesn't have that foul rotten egg smell. In my opinion, it's because of the formulation. It's in caplet form.
- This glutathione contains Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin C and Grape Seed Extract known as boosters to speed up the whitening process of the skin.
- It also has Vitamin E, Rosehips and Collagen known as anti-aging and cell renewal supplements.
- I didn't experienced any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts or whatsoever.
- It made my skin glowing even if there are times that I need to stay late at night.
- It lessened cystic pimples popping around my chin which I experience every month.
- The color of my freckles lightened a bit while I'm taking this capsule.
- I noticed that it lightened the dark circle on my forearm that I got while frying. The oil ousted on my hand and it left a dark mark. See the photo above.
- Easily accessible.
- If you have a GNC Gold Card, the price will be 20% cheaper than the original amount.
- Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.
What I don't like:
- It's expensive for budget conscious individuals.
- Contains only 250mg of Glutathione compared to other brands in the market.
- It's a bit hard to swallow because the size of the tablet/caplet is almost the same as calcium which I believe most of my friends had a hard time swallowing too.
Will I purchase? Yes! Good thing there's a Gold Membership Card :)
Recommendation:
I give this a 4.25/5 rating. To those who want to achieve fair skin, I highly recommend this product because it's an overall supplement for the skin. It contains not only glutathione but it has a decent amount of Vitamin C, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Grape Seed Extract, Rosehips, Vitamin E and Collagen. This supplement not only maintained my skin tone but it served as an ant-oxidant in my body because I'm exposed to second-hand smoke from my husband and also from other stress factors in the environment. So if you smoke, drink and always stay late at night this supplement will also help cleanse the toxins from those I mentioned above in your body.
Have you tried taking glutathione as a daily supplement? Hope you can share your experience :)

DISCLAIMER: This product was sent to me by GNC Live Well Philippines for review. The views expressed here are my honest opinion about the product.
Ang laking tipid pag gold member ka ng GNC :) You already have fair skin na Ms. Kath, is this the one you are using? Ang puti puti mo and makinis. :)
ReplyDeleteYup, laki ng tipid :) Yes, I'm fair na dear used this for a month lang and naka-contribute din the pag maintain ng skin tone ko and nag-lighten yung dark mark sa hand ko na ang itim dahil natalsikan ng oil habang ng priprito ako.
Deletegreat review you have here! thanks. I'm already taking too many supplements but I think this one is also a good one to try. I love my morena skin but this one is for overall skin supplement so will give it a try. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks sis :) Oh, how many? Yes, this one is also good for overall skin care.
DeleteWow, it sure is pricey, pero as the cliche' goes - beauty has a price. Okay na rin since you get what you're paying for naman. :)
ReplyDeleteYes dear but sabi mo nga okay na rin kasi hindi lang pure glutathione. There's a combination of other anti-oxidants na can contribute to healthy skin inside and out.
Delete$40+ per month?! That's a little on the pricey side but as long as to continues to give amazing results, it's worth every penny!
ReplyDeleteYes but you get what you pay for so the result is really worth every penny!
DeleteI actually am canvassing for good supplements to take since I'm goling to several beach trips this summer, might put this into consideration. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks sis :) I highly recommend this. I'm sure you'll get tan during your beach trips. Just enjoy and no need to worry, there's GlutaBright :)
DeleteI've heard about GNC but your blog post answered all my questions...I've always wanted to try glutathione.
ReplyDeleteYay! Thanks dear :) Hope you'll try this glutathione brand soon and let me know if you like it.
DeleteThat supplement's pricey! Have you tried other glutathione supplements? How would you compare those to this product from GNC? :)
ReplyDeleteHello this is my second brand. Both brands are for reviews only so I took it for just a month. The difference on the first brand that I've tried was the glutathione content and the form (capsule vs caplet) and some of the ingredients that GlutaBright have.
DeleteYeah even if the product is expensive but is effective, people should really go for it!
ReplyDeleteYes, well said on that!
DeleteYeah, the gluta content is lower...for how long you've seen the effecT?
ReplyDeleteAfter three weeks since I'm already fair to begin with that's why I don't see drastic changes as for the whitening department.
DeleteI just realized I'm so dark now because of my training, maybe I need this one too.
ReplyDeletelols! I guess you need this together with a tough sunblock because you're always out in the sun!
DeleteThese days everyone wishing to look young by taking care of their skin,so in that respect this is a great and useful product.
ReplyDeleteYes, you said it 100% right. Everyone wants to stay forever young :)
DeleteSupplement for younger looking skin...a whitening all though-out and the best.
ReplyDeleteDitto! Thanks for the comment sir Fernando :)
DeleteI love the pink bottle! :) Medyo out of topic pero I love how you take care of yourself sis and you maintain looking young and fresh
ReplyDeleteHello Kat! Ganda ng bottle :) Yay, naku lagi din ako stressed sa puyat and pag-aalaga ng anak ko. I stick to the current skin care na hiyang ako. Saka nung hindi na ko masyado umiinom and nag stop mag smoke mas naging maganda skin ko. I only take grapeseed extract as maintenance and vitamin c and e naman kasi para sa fertility and bonus na yun sa skin.
DeleteWow, it's quite expensive. I would like to know if you have tried any other glutathione supplements besides this one.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's quite expensive but if you have the GNC gold card the price is the same as the competition brands in the market. Snow caps is the other brand that I've tried for review.
Deletegreat review! i think we must take good care of our body nowadays!
ReplyDeleteThank you! True that!
Deletelovely!! i was actually thinking of getting a collagen but most of them have glutathione or whitening agent mix with them which i dont like hehe i love my morena skin colour though this is very good to those who really looks after their skin much x0~ www.tauyanm.com
ReplyDeleteSalute to you for loving your morena skin. If I was born with morena skin I'll be proud too! Buy the collagen sis, it will make your skin glow and young.
DeleteOk LNG po b mag take nito ang nag bebreastfeed??
ReplyDeleteHello, it's not advisable for lactating or breastfeeding mothers.
DeleteHow bout delivery to Indonesia?
ReplyDeleteHello, I don't sell this dear. I just made a review. Please refer to their website if this product is available there :)
Deletei want to try this,is this available in mercury drugs
ReplyDeleteHello, this is exclusively available at GNC stores nationwide.
DeleteI love the bottle color pink so girly <3 sana pati yung caplet ginawa na din pink para partner... I didn't know that GNC has gluta products such as this... thank you so much for posting sis Kath
ReplyDeleteThis product is made talaga with that color kasi their campaign na GNC also has products made for women. Oo nga, parang folic acid lang na kadalasan pink ang color.
DeleteGNC? halos nyan diba pang protein yung products nila may pang whitening din pala sila... alpha lipoic meaning nakakapagpapayat din ito? :D
ReplyDeleteNkakaalis dn po b yan ng pimples?
DeleteKath nkakalis po b ng pimples or black heads
Delete@Franchesca- yup :) @Julie Regalado- in the long run pwede kung matagal mo na iniinom to pero mas need mo ang topical skin care products for that case.
DeleteGreat review Kath, looks like a great product. Your readers should check out my page for GNC Coupons to save on their next purchase.
