Read on to find out!
WHAT IS DONUT SKIN?
When we talk aboutdonut skin, we don’t mean a literal donut!
Donut skin means having a skin texture that looks like the surface of a donut covered in glazed icing.
Think about skin that has these characteristics:
- Dewy
- Radiant
- Poreless
- Hydrated
- Smooth
- Glowing
- Youthful

While makeup is one way to get the look, equally important is having a dedicated skincare routine because this sets the foundation for glazed, plump and healthy skin.
What should we look for when choosing donut skincare?
Firstly, an effective cleansing routine (ideally double cleansinig) is important as much as the rest of your skincare routine. This is because the cleaner your skin is, the more effective your skincare products will be too.
For more on the double cleanse method and how to do it most effectively, tune into the Korean Beauty Show podcast here:
Secondly, hydration is essential because the moisture levels of your skin will have a huge effect on how dewy and plump it looks.
While Hailey’s Rhode Skin range is made for donut skin, it’s currently available only in the US. Check out the best Rhode Skin dupes here!
For non-US skincare fans, don’t worry! We’ve curated the best Products for Donut Skin in Australia below:
Cleanser
If you've been wearing makeup or SPF throughout the day, you need to make sure you remove it properly. Bare Skin Balm melts away all oil based impurities on your skin so that your skin is left bare and glowing.
It's the perfect first step on your way to a donut glaze!
This delicious cleanser is totally customizable because it features two products in one. Depending on how gritty you leave the sugar crystals, it either exfoliates, dissolvingthe dirt and debris clogging our pores or if you dissolve them first, it works like a regular second cleanse.
Sugar Scrub melts into a creamy foam that thoroughly cleanses, to keep our skin clear and healthy. Ceramides and Vitamin E ensure skin stays soft and hydrated.
After cleansing, skin is left refreshed and smooth without irritation, making it perfect for all skin types
Indulgent cleansing, minus the calories? Yes, please!

Dewy Glaze Toner is the ultimate donut skin product (the hint is in the name :p)

Your skin will drink up this buffet of ingredients, including 3 types of Hyaluronic Acid, Chinaberry plant extract, Ivy Gourd fruit extract, Adenosine, Panthenol and more. The unique formula doesn't use water as the first ingredient but has instead swapped it out for ultra-nourishing Birch Sap.
If you just want one product that gets you to glazed donut skin, this is it!
