HOW TO GET THE GLASS SKIN EFFECT ON YOUR FACE

BY DANIELLE ANENE

Have you ever been captivated by someone's flawless complexion and wondered how they kept their skin so clear and radiant? The type of skin that is dewy, smooth, and appears to reflect light, almost like porcelain. In this issue, we'll walk you through the steps to achieving this coveted look. It's important to note that achieving this luminous skin takes time and dedication; it won't happen overnight.

Double Cleansing

Double cleansing is a two-step process that involves using an oil-based cleanser followed by a water-based cleanser. The first step with an oil-based cleanser is designed to remove oilbased products, such as makeup, sunscreen and sebum. The second step with the water-based cleanser then works its way into the skin, removing grime and sweat. The purpose of double cleansing is not only to provide a more thorough cleanse, but also to revitalize dull skin and enhance the effectiveness of other skincare products. By removing all traces of impurities from the skin, double cleansing allows for better penetration of subsequent skincare products, resulting in improved overall skin health and appearance.

EXFOLIATING, TONING (AND FACE SHEET MASKS)

Removing dead skin is essential for achieving a radiant complexion. If you have sensitive skin, consider using a chemical exfoliant instead of scrubbing. To offset any potential irritation from the chemicals, use a toner that restores the pH balance of your face and replenish your skin with a soothing face sheet mask as the case may be.

Serum And Moisturizer Application

While the serum works to address dullness and hyperpigmentation in problem areas, the moisturizer plays a crucial role in sealing in the active ingredients and hydration that were applied in the previous step.

Remember that your diet, as well as staying hydrated at all times, has a significant impact on the outcome of your skin.

Face Oil And Spf

Applying face oils at the end of your routine is crucial for locking in moisture and keeping your skin hydrated. It's recommended to choose non-comedogenic oils that contain ingredients like jojoba oil, argan oil, or rosehip oil, which effectively nourish and hydrate the skin. Additionally, it's highly advised to apply SPF on your face before going out during the day to prevent premature ageing and protect the skin against sun damage.
