The Glass-Skin Routine

For deep hydration and a lit-from-within glow.

The Korean approach to dewy, plump, luminous skin — built on layered hydration, in the right order.

Steps: Gentle cleanser → Hydrating toner → Snail essence → HA serum → Light moisturiser → SPF 

Weekly: Collagen mask

Gentle cleanser — gentle cleanse, because a stripped face can't hold the moisture.

Hydrating toner — lightweight, hydrating toner (not clarifying/astringent), because the entire goal is adding water, not removing oil.

Snail essence — helps skin look plump and bouncy. Its humectants and glycoproteins sink deep before heavier layers.

Hyaluronic-acid serum — concentrated water-binding hydration that plumps from within. It goes after the essence and before cream so it can pull in moisture, then get sealed before it evaporates.

Light moisturiser — seals all those water layers in with a finish that's dewy, not heavy. Light on purpose — a thick occlusive would dull the glass look this routine is building.

SPF (mornings) — protects the glow and keeps hydration from being undone by sun.

Weekly: Collagen/hydrating mask — a concentrated hydration boost once a week for an extra hit of bounce and glow. Slots in after cleansing, in place of your essence/serum steps that night.
