“Glass Skin” is the pinnacle of Korean beauty ideals—a clear, luminous, and poreless-looking complexion that appears almost translucent. Although genetics and lifestyle play a role, achieving this coveted look is more than luck. It’s about consistent care, correct products, and adopting a skin-first mindset.
Let’s explore a Korean Skincare Routine designed specifically to help Indian skin types adapt and thrive—despite heat, pollution, and diverse skin challenges. Discover how to layer products like a pro, and build your journey to crystal-clear confidence.
🌿 Step 1: Double Cleansing – The Foundation of Clarity
Every routine starts with double cleansing, a cornerstone of Korean skincare. Begin with an oil-based cleanser to break down SPF, makeup, and excess sebum—especially critical in India’s dusty environments. Follow up with a gentle water-based foam cleanser to remove leftover dirt without stripping moisture.
🧽 Step 2: Exfoliation – Polishing Without Overdoing
Use an exfoliant 2–3 times a week—preferably enzyme or mild AHA exfoliants. Indian skin is prone to pigmentation, and over-exfoliating can worsen the issue.
Look for ingredients like PHA or papaya enzymes which remove dead skin without causing microtears.
Try: Hwasa Fruit Enzyme Peel – A safe choice for sensitive, pigmented skin.
💧 Step 3: Hydration – Layering is Key
Hydration is the core of glass skin. Apply a hydrating toner immediately after cleansing to prep your skin for better absorption. Follow with a hyaluronic acid serum India that pulls in moisture and plumps the skin.
Then apply an essence—this often-overlooked step replenishes skin barrier and balances texture.

🧴 Step 4: Emulsion + Gel Moisturizer – Locking it In
Seal hydration with a light emulsion, followed by a dewy gel-based moisturizer that doesn’t clog pores. This combination is perfect for Indian humid conditions.
Look for ingredients like glycerin, centella asiatica, and niacinamide, which strengthen skin while improving radiance.
Try: GlassSkin Dewy Moist Gel (4.8★ “Glow without greasiness.”)
🌞 Step 5: Sunscreen – No Skipping
No glass skin without SPF. Choose a broad-spectrum gel sunscreen that leaves no white cast. Sunscreen not only protects but helps maintain skin texture and pigmentation-free tone.
