In the world of skin care, the “glass skin” shout appeared as one of the most prominent aesthetic orientations, and it has become a symbol of purity and natural shine, as many women seek to get a soft, uniform, and transparent appearance as if the skin is covered with a layer of glass.
The origins of this concept are due to the Korean skin care routine, and it depends on thoughtful steps aimed at enhancing the freshness of the skin from the inside out, and although this routine is designed mainly for skin that lives in a moderate climate, it can be adapted to suit hot and dry environments, especially in desert areas, by adopting customized steps and light ingredients that suit the nature of the harsh weather.
What is meant by glass skin?
It is a soft, texture, pure, balanced skin, free of apparent pores and impurities that reflect light in a way that makes it appear bright and naturally glowing. This concept is not only dependent on the bright appearance, but rather includes deep moisture, purification of pores, nourishing the skin with light layers of preparations, and highlighting natural radiance.
