Kora Noni Glow Face Oil Review
Kora Noni Glow
I have always been a light moisturizer girl, but lately I have switched over to oil, and - you’ll hear every single person that switches to oil say this - I have not looked back. My very first face oil was Kora Noni Glow Face Oil, and because I didn’t know what to expect or how my skin would tolerate it (and also because of the price of a full size bottle) I started with the KORA NONI GLOW FACE OIL MINI from Sephora - at $30, it was a safe bet for a trial. I was instantly hooked and soon bought a full size version from the Kora website, and it is a favorite part of my skincare ritual. It is pretty light, sweet smelling, and the bottle is chic. Plus, it invokes a memory of Miranda Kerr’s gorgeous face, which is a plus - maybe I, too, can look like her with enough use :)

What I love: Kora’s Noni Glow is luxurious and smells great. The bottle is sleek and pretty on my countertop. I also love that Noni Glow is a blend of skin-soothing and sweet-smelling oils, most of which are organic. It definitely feels luxurious too. The Noni Face Oil is perfect for spring and summer, and it smells luxe - it feels nourishing and reparative after a day of (SPF-protected!) sun, salt, sand and sea breezes.
What I don’t love: Honestly, I think the only thing I don’t love is the price. It’s too expensive to slather on heavily in the winter, which makes this not a viable year round product for me. It is more expensive than something like Trader Joe’s Marula Oil, which I also reviewed and compared, and which I literally coat my skin in during colder months.
What does EWG Skindeep say? Kora is EWG verified, which is TOP honors.
Where to buy:Sephora is a great bet with free, fast shipping and multiple sizes. Kora’s site offers 10-15% off to new customers. I also found the Noni Glow on the QVC website, which may be worth trying as there’s a roughly 30% discount on a 50ml bottle at the time of publishing.
Sephora - Mini - $30/10ml
Sephora - Full Size - $78/30
You could also purchase Noni Glow Face Oil from the Kora website, which has 15% off for first time buyers. There’s sometimes free shipping, so this is def a solid bet for a discount if you can get free shipping, otherwise Sephora just about always has free shipping.
