There’s a new trend in #skincare. This is a skin that looks transparent, smooth, and clear. It almost looks like a glass pane. You can call it glass skin. It has a super smooth, shiny, reflective finish. How can you make this happen in real life? To keep your skin hydrated, you will need to gently and continually disintegrate dead, dull skin cells. Here’s how:
Step 1 – Double Cleanse
Glassy skin is not possible by randomly wiping a cleanser over your face at night. To achieve a flawless complexion, remove all traces of oil, makeup, sweat, dirt and pollutants. Even if you use long-lasting formulas or heavy-duty sunscreen, regular cleaners will not do the trick.
You can thoroughly clean your skin without stripping it using an oil-based cleanser such as Yuri Pibu. After washing your skin with warm water:
- Rinse it with cold water.
- Use a moisturizing formula such as Blueberry Bounce Gentle Cleanser to clean the rest of the skin.
- Swap in an exfoliating cleanser once a week to keep flakes at bay.
- After you’re done, dry your face and let it air dry.
Every drop of water means more moisture for your skin.
Step 2 – Follow the 7 Skin Method
A hydrating toner is key to getting flawless skin at home. To get that glowing glow from within, you’ll need to apply several layers seven. Although it may sound tedious, it doesn’t take as much time and feels more like a treatment than a chore.
Apply a small amount of toner to your skin while it is still damp. We love Whamisa Organized Flowers Deep Rich Essence Toner because it contains aloe vera, oat kernel extract and helps give skin a bouncy feel. Allow it to sit for a while before repeating the process six times. You’ll notice a noticeable improvement in skin texture, almost like your face has just had a glass of water. You don’t need to do anymore. You can boost hydration by using a moisturizing sheet mask like this one from Whamisa a minimum of twice per week.
Step 3 – Apply an Essence
It is not surprising that glass skin requires a hydrating essence. It’s the most important step in every Korean woman’s beauty routine. It would be best to look for a squalane-laced formula such as Yuri Pibu Beauty Essence. The former draws water from the air into the skin while the latter strengthens the barrier function to make it appear even over time. Don’t pat– it in to avoid tugging, which can cause the skin to stretch and wrinkles.
Step 4: Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
You know that glass skin cannot be achieved without significant moisture. There may be a lot of creams in your cupboard, but you need something that contains serious skin-plumping oils and moisture-trapping oils such as the ones found in Make T: rem Cream. These creams lock in moisture, making your skin smoother, softer and a little shinier. For an instant boost in hydration, spritz some face mist on top of your skin that is dry.
Step 5 – Protect with SPF
It’s a big investment to protect your skin from UV damage. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day, rain or shine, to protect against wrinkles, fine lines, and brown spots. Makeup: rem Blue Ray Sungel is the ultimate SPF. It sinks in quickly and gives your skin that glowing glow. Its lightweight texture makes it easy to wear alone or under makeup.
