Glass skin is a bit like the superpower of Korean skincare routines: skin so smooth and luminous that it catches the light like a mirror! Spoiler alert: that perfect glow doesn't just fall from the sky. You need to use the right products to cleanse, moisturize, and illuminate your skin. In this article, you'll find our guide to a flawless complexion in 5 steps ✨
What products should I use to get glass skin?
Guaranteed "glass skin" effect: the quest for perfect skin
Glass skin is more than just a beauty trend. Inspired by Korean beauty treatments, this method emphasizes intense hydration and natural radiance. The goal? To create skin that appears almost translucent, able to capture and reflect light like glass! But how can you get visible results quickly? By using targeted treatments, deeply moisturizing, and focusing on diligence in carrying out this glass skin routine. It's all about balance: neither too oily nor too dry, your skin shouldn't be suffocated under layers of products; it should be able to breathe and be perfectly healthy.
What are the steps to having smooth, healthy and perfectly hydrated skin?
1. Lay the foundation with a good double cleanse
We begin this ritual with a double cleansing, a method also derived from Korean skincare habits. It is carried out in two steps and aims to deeply cleanse the skin, an essential step to obtain glass skin. First, we perform an oil cleansing using a cleansing oil or balm that removes makeup, sunscreen and excess sebum. Then, we use a water-based cleanser, in the form of foam or gel , which removes water-soluble impurities such as sweat and pollution particles. Before applying the following treatments, it is very important to dry your face. This step is essential to maximize the effectiveness and penetration of the products.
💡 Tip: For the drying step, it's best to use a clean towel specifically for your face and pat dry rather than rub. Using the same towel for your body and face can be harsh on your skin and transfer bacteria, increasing the risk of irritation!

3. Apply a glass skin effect mask
Applying a glass skin effect mask is a key step to intensely hydrate the skin and give it that smooth and luminous appearance you're looking for! Opt for masks rich in hydrating active ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin or niacinamide, which plump the skin and boost its radiance. We recommend our Aloe Vera Hydrating Sheet Mask , soaked in nourishing essence which is particularly effective at creating this glass skin effect. For optimal results, leave on for 15 minutes then massage in the excess product to maximize absorption.

4. Prepare the skin to receive care
Once the essence of the face mask is well absorbed, comes the stage of preparing the skin with two essential treatments:
Toner : A shot of hydration that awakens the skin and prepares it to absorb all the benefits of your skincare. Opt for a formula with rose floral water for an instantly fresh effect.
Serum : A true radiance booster, it comes right before moisturizer to maximize its effectiveness. Choose one with vitamin C for luminous, smooth, and plump skin. The result? Glowing skin ready for its moisturizer!
