Glass Skin 101: How to Achieve a Dewy, Translucent Glow

What is Glass Skin?

Originating from K-Beauty, "Glass Skin" refers to a complexion so hydrated and smooth it looks like a pane of glass. It isn't about hiding "imperfections" with makeup; it’s about deep, cellular hydration.

The 3 Pillars of Glass Skin

• Exfoliation: Removing dead skin cells is vital. Use a gentle PHA (Polyhydroxy Acid) for a smooth surface without irritation.

• Hydration, Hydration, Hydration: Think "layers." Instead of one thick cream, use multiple thin layers of hydrating toners and essences.

• Consistency: Luminous skin happens over time, not overnight.

Must-Have Ingredients

• Niacinamide: Refines pores and evens skin tone.

• Snail Mucin or Beta-Glucan: For that "bouncy" skin texture.

• Galactomyces Ferment: To brighten and improve clarity.
