If you're searching for the best K-Beauty products to guarantee the glass skin glow in 2024 you're in the right place. On episode 243 of the Korean Beauty Show podcast we're taking a look at some of the tried and tested favourites and their more modern counterparts!
When it comes to glass skin, it's important to keep in mind that it's not normal for your skin to look "glass like" all the time. While it's a great goal to work towards the simple reality is that most people do not have glass skin all the time.
The other important thing to note is that Korean celebrities and idols are not relying on skincare products to achieve their glass skin complexions. In Korea, we are very spoiled to have access to the best treatments and procedures for a very reasonable price. Korean celebrities are having things like Rejuran Healer, Skin Botox, lasers etc on a regular basis. However, having said that, there are many Korean beauty products that are designed to enhance the effects in your at-home routine.
Cleansers
Finding the right cleanser for your skin type is so important if you want to get glass skin. Many people overlook the importance of cleansing in a good skincare routine to focus on the more sexy steps, like serums. However, cleansing is where many people go wrong and can cause a range of issues, from redness, dryness, flakiness and worse.
Your perfect cleanser should leave your skin feeling soft, comfortable and not overly tight or dry.
If you have skin conditions like rosacea, skin sensitivities or are prone acne I would highly recommend sticking to low pH products in your routine. You can read more about the importance of low pH cleansers here.
Whereas snail mucin is touted for its ability to repair dry patches, breakouts and give your skin the ultimate elasticity and hydration there's one major problem. It's not vegan.
If you're looking for a vegan alternative to this best-selling essence then tryMixsoon's Bean Essence.
Made with a familiar goopy texture that sinks into the skin it replaces snail mucin with Soybean Ferment Extract, which improves the condition of uneven skin and fight off signs of ageing. It's mild, effective and perfect for daily use.
Best of all, it's great for layering to ensure you get the K-Beauty glass skin glow!
