It’s an innovative concoction of coconut oil and beeswax, which means smooth and silky skin rather than patchy and potentially flaky. It’s a really sensational product; subtle enough to make your skin look super hydrated but buildable enough to give you the most natural radiance. The first thing before even attempting this feat is to give yourself a fighting chance in the first place.

It will set your make-up, giving the look staying power, and your skin will still look glossy.

Glass skin is simply an appearance of virtually poreless, clear, glossy skin,” says Ayanna Smith, esthetician at The Skin Xperience. Sarah Kinsler, an esthetician who specializes in Korean skincare, echoes this sentiment: “Glass skin is a term used to describe flawless, poreless-looking skin.” The “glass” in the terminology refers to its glass-like resemblance: smooth, light-reflecting and almost translucent in its clarity — like a clean windowpane.

Shine bright like a diamond,” sang Rihanna. You too can shine like a goddess by perfecting the trendy “glass skin” look that originated from South Korea. One key component of glass skin is its apparent poreless-ness. Of course, we all have pores; some of us have larger pores than others — a fact that often boils down to genetics. Moreover, contrary to popular belief, it’s impossible to physically shrink the size of your pores. “Pore sizes are usually predetermined by our genes,” says Smith. Kinsler agrees: “While it's possible to achieve a blemish-free complexion, pore size is often genetic,” and thus cannot be toggled to the degree that many people believe.

Sit yourself underneath a good light and identify which parts of your face the light is hitting," says Wolff. "Do it with your moisturiser newly on because your skin will be a little more wet and reflective, making it easier to work out." Where to apply your highlighter To be able to choose the right primer, you need to understand your skin type. Primers are designed for different skin types – normal skin, textured skin, oily skin, dry skin, combination skin and more. When you understand your skin type, choosing the right primer becomes easy.” This virtually flawless skin state is a rather lofty goal, of course. While you’ve probably seen glass skin flaunted on your social feeds, Kinsler says it’s crucial to remember that “what we see on social media and advertising are filters, makeup and great products!” In other words, the glass skin we so often see is not necessarily the natural, just-woke-up skin state we’re led to believe it is. That said, there are a few steps and crucial skincare habits, as well as ingredients to look for, that can amp up your skin’s wattage for a glass-skin glow.

Vitamin C, as mentioned previously, is prized for fading dark spots and improving overall skin brightness. The ingredient, says Smith, “help(s) combat dryness and discoloration,” too. What’s unique about this one from Algenist is that it’s half glycolic acid and half nourishing oils. When shaken it creates a cloudy emulsion that should be left on clean skin for ten minutes; applied with a cotton round and washed off. The hybrid approach to the formula not only gives you a super clean surface, but the added oils nourish and moisturise which definitely comes in handy as you really want to keep the skin sufficiently hydrated to achieve that glossy finish.

So, you either need to use less foundation, or apply it with a blending sponge for a natural finish. The primary purpose of a primer is to prepare the skin for foundation. Depending on your skin type, this could be blurring the skin, filling in open pores, reducing shine, providing hydration, or providing a smooth canvas for make-up.” Is primer necessary?
