Everyone dreams of achieving healthy glowing skin that almost shines brighter than the future of crypto itself. If one desires achieving results like that of the people on Korean drama, they’re likely to be well aware and fond of the long 9/10 step skincare routine. First, understanding what is considered ‘glass skin’ is the first step to working towards the whole goal. While many dermatologists like Jean Astruc or Robert J. Bentley feels the nearest form towards achieving glass skin is the healthiest version of one’s actual skin cells itself. And if one wants their skin to be healthy, tight, luminous and plump, they’re likely to abide by a lot of skin rules and a whole new regime to achieve and notice these results as soon as possible (3 days). Skin care is the key towards the actual goal; however, breaking the whole skincare regime into the perfect balance for one’s basic skin type and problems is the right kind of skincare that should be used.
One should analyze and understand their skin and its type before actually implementing anything to their existing regime. Suppose an individual uses a hydrating lotion while they face a series of acne, combination/ oily skin types. In that case, they are likely to go further away from their actual goal and land up with even more skin problems than ever. Understanding what is right/wrong for the skin is essential, as one shouldn’t use a product with an ingredient they are allergic to. A great way to analyze the kin type is by simply taking a skin test involving zooming into the skin cells for accurate data. However, if one cannot take the skin test, they could merely analyze it utilizing blotting paper or by waiting an hour after cleansing and feeling the skin’s texture with bare hands.
Once an individual is well educated about their skin and its issues, without any further or do, they should hop onto the exciting part, the skincare!
The skincare regime for glass skin may seem overbearing at first; however, go with it for the best and healthiest skin version.
Cleansing!
Removing dirt, excess oils, and bacteria on the face’s surface is essential, especially if one wants to clear their skin out. One mistake that the majority of the individuals happen to make is not washing their hands before their face, and this could be wrong on so many levels as it destroys the purpose of cleansing itself, making more of the present bacteria lather up on the skin surface, doing no good to the skin cells. Instead, one should cleanse their hands well before using a face wash. In terms of cleansing, it is best to use a concentrated cleanser for problem-specific reasons like acne or blackheads. However, suppose one has subtle and mild skin with no problem, in particular. In that case, they should either use a foaming wash or a sensitive face butter/ gel, which keeps the natural oils present and prevents the skin from getting dry and flaky.
Exfoliate!
An exfoliator in the form of a scrub or a chemical exfoliant is quite essential at least once or twice a week as it helps eliminate the excess of dead skin cells sitting on the surface (blocking away the glow and brightness) of the skin and may also help in the removal of stubborn blackheads and whiteheads (up to an extent). Long term use of exfoliants may also show some fascinating results of their skin feeling and looking tighter and plumped.
Don’t forget the toner!
Some may find the concept of a toner entirely pointless, but the truth is, a toner based on one’s skin type and problems are the direct gateways towards better results. This is because toner helps balance the skin’s PH levels that were bound to get disturbed from the previous steps of the regime, making the skin feel fresh as new, allowing the skin to absorb and process the goodies and all the ingredients better for faster results.
Do Not sleep without a moisturizer or a night mask!
This is preferred during the evenings and can be called a before-bed routine, as the moisturizer or a sleeping mask can now be penetrated into the skin better and also work best when there isn’t any contact with the sun and dirt/ pollution, which gives more of a reason for this step to not be skipped.
