Get That Glow, Babe: Your Ultimate Guide to Korean Glass Skin
Hey there Glow Stars! 🌟 If you’ve been scrolling through Instagram, Pinterest, or TikTok lately, chances are you’ve seen that dewy, almost see-through skin trend that looks like it’s lit from within. That, my lovely Glow Babes, is the coveted Korean Glass Skin look—and guess what? It’s totally achievable!
But let’s clear this up right away: Glass skin isn’t about being perfect. It’s about skin that’s healthy, hydrated, and glowing so hard it could blind your haters. 😘✨
What Is Korean Glass Skin?
Glass skin refers to a complexion that looks incredibly smooth, luminous, and clear—like a pane of glass. The term was made popular in K-beauty circles and went viral worldwide. It’s not just about piling on highlighter; it’s about skincare rituals that deeply hydrate, nourish, and plump your skin for that natural inner glow.
The Glow-Down: How to Get Glass Skin
Here’s your step-by-step routine, Glow Queens:
1. Double Cleanse
Start with an oil-based cleanser (we’re looking at you, Heimish All Clean Balm) to remove makeup and SPF, then follow with a gentle water-based cleanser (Soon Jung Whip Cleanser) to cleanse without stripping.
2. Exfoliate (2-3x a week)
Use a gentle exfoliator (Mixsoon Bean Essence counts!) to buff away dead skin cells and help your serums soak in like magic.
3. Tone It Up
Toners help prep your skin to absorb the rest of your products. A fave? Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner—hydrating, calming, and a must-have for glow-getters.
4. Essence
Essence is K-beauty’s secret weapon. Think of it as a toner and serum hybrid. Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water is a stunner!
5. Serum Central
We’re crushing on Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum with Propolis + Niacinamide. It helps even skin tone, boost glow, and calm inflammation.
6. Sheet Mask
Pop one on a few times a week. JM Solution Marine Luminous Pearl Mask is a hydration bomb 💣
7. Moisturize, Baby
Go for lightweight, glow-inducing moisturizers like Heimish Matcha Biome Calming Gel—great for oily to combo skin.
8. Seal the Deal with SPF
Every. Single. Day. Jumiso Super Soothing Cica & Aloe Sunscreen keeps you protected and radiant.
Do I Need All 10 Steps?
Nope! Customize to your skin needs. The real trick is consistency. Korean skincare is all about treating skin with love over time, not rushing for overnight miracles.
