The cconcept of glass skin has become very popular thanks to the Korean beauty industry. Achieving a glass skin requires a consistent focus on hydration, exfoliation, and protection.

If you are wondering how to achieve a glass skin, here are 5 steps to try out –

Double Cleanse

This is the foundation of a great skincare routine. Double cleansing is the process of using an oil-based cleanser first to remove makeup and skincare products, and following with a water based cleanser for a cleaner face. Double cleansing should be part of your nightly routine and do make sure you are using the right oil-based and water cleansers for your skin.

Exfoliate

Exfoliating should be done at least twice a week, or every other day if your skin requires a lot of exfoliation. This helps shed dead skin and improves the texture of the skin.

Hydration

After double cleansing and exfoliating, the next step is to apply a hydrating toner or essence, immediately followed with a hydrating serum. You can also apply a few drops of facial oil once the serum is fully absorbed for more hydration.

Moisturise

Once all the hydrating products are fully abosorbed, the next step is to apply a moisturiser that suits your skin. This step locks all the products in and leaves the skin dewy.

Sun protection

For day time, always ensure you apply SPF to protect your skin from the sun, Sunscreen should be applied on a dailoy basis, even on winter days.

5 Skincare Secrets

  • Double Cleanse at Night

I started double cleansing once a day, at night and it transformed my skin beautifully. Double cleansing helps remove dirt, makeup, oil, skincare products, dead skin and all. This process leaves the skin clean, clear and healthy. I recommend double cleansing with an oil based cleanser first, followed by a water based cleanser, for the best results.

  • Invest in the Right Skincare Products

Investing in the right skincare products can’t be overemphasised. It does take a lot of trial and error before you find the right products for your skin, but it is worth the investment. I do a lot of trial and error with skincare products, and I always do a patch test 24 hours before using a new product to ensure it is right for me. Also, I pay a lot of attention to product reviews, description, and ingredients before using any product to make sure the product is what I need.

  • Clean Diet

Maintaining a clean diet will do wonders for the skin. I became a vegetarian a few years ago, and my skin still thanks me for it. If you are looking to really transform your look and overall health, ensure you maintain a healthy diet that is right for you.

  • Use Sunscreen Everyday

A popular skincare tip is to use sunscreen everyday even in the autumn/winter months. You should also apply sun protection at least once a day, even when you are indoors, regardless of your skin type. Sun protection is a must for everyone, so never skip this step in your skincare routine.

  • Be Gentle with your Skin

Apply skincare products with your fingers with gentleness. Daily cleansing and shaving can take its toll on the skin. Which is why being gentle is a must for skincare. Opt for gentle products that do not sting after application and ensure you test any new product at least 24 hours before application.

October 5, 2025 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , 2 Comments

Like with most things, the process of keeping your hair healthy and shiny is personal. How we care for our hair can change its overall look and health. Here are simple 5 tips for healthy hair you can easily implement into your hair care routine –

Be gentle with your hair

Being gentle with your hair while you care for it is really important. The hair is quite delicate especially when wet, so it is smart to be extra careful while washing and styling the hair to avoid hair damage. Using the right styling tools and accessories will help, and being more tender while handling the hair will help even more.

Get to know your hair

It is important to really understand your hair and get to know your hair type. That way, you will know how best to care for your hair so it stays healthy. There is a lot of information about how to discover your hair type, so a quick online search should bring up lots of resources to guide you in knowing more about your hair.

Protect your hair from heat

Another great tip for healthy hair is to ensure you protect your hair from heat. I abstain from heat completely for my hair as it does more damage than good, but if you must use heat, use the right heat protection hair care products and try to make use of heat as infrequently as possible. This will help your hair stay healthy and shiny.

Wash your hair when needed

For me, I find that weekly hair washing works best for my hair. It may be the same for you, or you may find that your hair needs bi weekly washing or more. The best way to care for your hair is to wash it when needs a wash, and not when a professional tells you to wash. Observing how quickly your hair gets dirty and washing when needed is a great way to ensure your hair stays clean and healthy, as over washing can make the scalp really dry. While washing less than required can lead to dandruff and other hair issues.

Use the right hair care products

Using the right hair care products is another way to keep your hair healthy. I pay a lot of attention to the hair care products I use, and I always ensure they are the right fit for my hair type. It is important to not just jump on the bandwagon and opt for trendy hair care products, but to go for hair care products that aere best suited to our hair type.
