Want that luminous, poreless, dewy complexion that looks like glass? The Korean beauty trend of "glass skin" isn't just about genetics—it's about the right products and consistent routine. Here's your 4-week roadmap to achieving glass skin using targeted, results-driven skincare.
What Is Glass Skin?
Glass skin is a Korean beauty term describing skin so smooth, clear, and luminous it resembles glass. It's characterised by minimal texture, even tone, intense hydration, and a natural, reflective glow—not oiliness. Achieving it requires layering hydrating and brightening actives that plump, refine, and illuminate.
The 4-Week Glass Skin Routine
Week 1-2: Hydration Foundation
Glass skin starts with deep hydration. Begin with our Hyaluronic Acid Serum with Vitamin C & E—hyaluronic acid holds up to 1000x its weight in water, plumping skin and smoothing fine lines. Apply to damp skin morning and night, then seal with a lightweight moisturiser.
Pro tip: Use our Ice Globes for Face and Eyes after applying serum to boost circulation, reduce puffiness, and enhance absorption. The cooling effect tightens pores for that smooth, refined texture essential to glass skin.
Week 2-3: Brightening & Even Tone
Now layer in brightening actives. Add our Vitamin C Serum with Niacinamide in the morning—vitamin C tackles dark spots and dullness while niacinamide refines pores and strengthens your skin barrier. This duo creates the even, luminous tone glass skin is known for.
Layering order: Hyaluronic Acid Serum first (thinnest consistency), then Vitamin C Serum, then moisturiser. Always apply serums to damp skin for maximum penetration.
Week 3-4: Glow Amplification
By week three, your skin should feel plumper and look brighter. Now it's about consistency and amplifying results. Continue your morning and evening routine, and consider our Woman's Hydrating Skincare Set or Women's Skin Brightening Set for a complete, streamlined regimen.
Use ice globes 3-4 times per week for lymphatic drainage and to lock in that dewy, glass-like finish. The key is consistency—glass skin is a marathon, not a sprint.
The Glass Skin Checklist
- Hydrate: Hyaluronic acid is non-negotiable
- Brighten: Vitamin C + niacinamide for even tone
- Refine: Ice globes to tighten pores and boost glow
- Protect: Always use SPF during the day (UV damage is glass skin's enemy)
- Consistency: 4 weeks minimum to see transformative results
Common Glass Skin Mistakes to Avoid
Over-exfoliating: Glass skin is about hydration, not stripping. Avoid harsh scrubs that damage your barrier.
Skipping hydration: Brightening without hydration leads to dryness, not glow.
Expecting overnight results: True glass skin takes 4-6 weeks of consistent use.
