The glass skin phenomenon based on Korean beauty standards is all about a complexion that appears to be even hydrated, and smooth, almost reflective, like it glows from the inside out. To achieve this luminous finish one must possess a gentle skincare philosophy and creative product placement. Dior highlighters crafted with master light reflective technology and skincare enriched formulas make perfect tools for this look. This article outlines a detailed method for creating a luxurious glass skin look using Dior highlighters while maintaining elegance and sophistication.
Understanding the Glass Skin Effect
- Exceptional hydration that creates natural radiance.
- Minimal visible texture or pores.
- Even a fresh looking complexion.
- Soft seamless luminosity rather than glitter shine.
Step One: Skincare Preparation
Preparation is key. To achieve a deeply moisturized glow begin with products that smooth, plump and brighten.
Recommended steps:
- Gentle exfoliation to smooth texture and remove dullness.
- Hydrating toner or essence to attract and seal in moisture.
- Hyaluronic acid serum to bring suppleness into the mix.
- Moisturizer to lock in moisture and create bouncy skin.
- Illuminating primer for an added zip of radiance.
Dior does have some hydration base products that blend well with makeup routines, and adding such will guarantee highlighters adhere beautifully.
Step Two:Lightweight Radiant Foundation
A glass skin finish is best served when the foundation makeup itself is air-penetrable. Dense matte formulas can be counterproductive to the shiny finish.
Apply a light, glow-enhancing foundation. Blend thoroughly with a wet makeup sponge to preserve the natural sheen of the skin. Do not powder too much because it can flatten the glow of the luminous finish attained in later steps.
Step Three: Wise Application of Dior Highlighters
A proper Dior highlighter to use is determined by complexion type and intensity desired. The firm offers a number of textures that will work best for achieving the glass skin appearance.
Dior Forever Skin Glow Fluid Highlighter
This fluid is perfect for a dewy finish as it has skincare-infused hydration. Apply a small amount to the top parts of the face:
- Cheekbones
- Nose bridge
- Cupid’s bow
- Brow bone
Pressing with fingertips rather than stroking a brush lightly into the skin to obtain blending smoothness. The formula yields light reflectance without emphasizing fine lines, ideal on dry or dull skin.
Dior Backstage Glow Face Palette
This shade allows for a multi dimensional shine. Use the softer pearlescent shades for an everyday glass effect. The highly milled texture slides into the base without depositing harsh sparkle. Sweep a light brush stroke across the temples and cheekbones for a sophisticated glow.
Layering Tip
Use liquid highlighter first and then a soft powder shade from the Backstage Glow palette and layer to achieve radiance with smoothness.
Dior Forever Couture Luminizer
This highlighting powder provides a chic glow that can be aged anywhere. This product scatters light for an illusory smoothing effect when applied to textured or mature skin types. Use sparingly with a little puffy brush, being careful not to apply too much around pores.
Dior Backstage Flash Perfector Concealer (Radiant Highlighting)
To point out areas that must be concealed apply this bright concealer under the eyes over the middle of the forehead and along the corners of the mouth. It gives both radiance and a lifted appearance without disrupting the glass finish.
Step Four: Create a Soft, Glossy Finish
A genuine glass skin look requires vigilant staying away from heavy powders. To tame shine, very lightly set only oil zones such as the sides of the nose. The highest regions should have a freshly applied almost wet appearance.
Refining finishes:
- Apply a touch of liquid highlighter at the tops of the eyebrows for extra luminance.
- Top with a shining finishing spray which dissolves all layers into one and forms reflective light.
Avoid matte bronzers or heavily pigmented blushes that tend to shatter the smooth surface. Dior cream blush or light pink highlighter shades can enhance the natural color of the skin without sacrificing on a glazed finish.
Long-Lasting Glass Skin Tips
- Thin layers rather than thick coats in order not to build up texture
- Use hydrating formulas rather than matte formulas
- Refresh with a fine spritz of setting spray throughout the day to appear refreshed and glowing
- Practice skincare like hydration masks and gentle exfoliation
