Already knew? Most beauty trends spill over to us from Asia. So does the latest hype: Glass Skin. We reveal what’s behind the beauty secret.
When you think of Asian beauty trends, bright colors and unusual tools quickly come to mind. The trends from Asia can do much more than just look crazy. Because if you disregard bizarre make-up trends, almost all women from the Far East have the same goal: to look young and healthy, if possible with a flawless complexion without pores, because beauty is an important topic for them. They all have one advantage: it is said that Asian women look an average of ten years younger than they actually are. They don’t achieve this through make-up or surgical interventions, but with strict routine care such as that of the Glass Skin. Because they think they know that even and radiantly beautiful skin, especially on the face, is the key to eternal youth.
Glass Skin: This is behind the Korean beauty trend
In Korea they even created a term for supposedly perfect skin. Behind the phenomenon called Glass Skin is pore-free skin that almost looks “glassy”. In order to achieve this beauty look of radiant, youthful and moisturized skin, strict and, above all, routine skin care is important.
With this skin care you will succeed
Koreans and beauty professionals swear by it layering. As the name suggests, several moisturizing products are “layered” on top of each other. Due to the many different ingredients and layers, the skin is optimally supplied with all nutrients. The result: plump, clear skin like a glass skin.
You should pay attention to this when layering:
1st step: To ensure that the skin is optimally moisturized, Korean women make sure that all (!) of their skin care products have a moisturizing property. Nourishing ingredients are also important for facial cleansing. This can be found, for example, in a oil.
2nd step: Peelings are essential for an even complexion on the face and therefore for a glass skin. So that the skin does not dry out, it is best to wear it Peelings for very sensitive skin or enzyme peels on.
3rd step:serum and moisturizer should be part of your routine care for your glass skin both in the morning and in the evening. The regular use of a face mask provides an extra freshness kick in the beauty. Ideally, this contains hyaluronic acid and thus provides a lot of moisture. Your perfect glass skin is ready!
