What is the ‘glass skin’ trend on TikTok?
Stemming from K-beauty, glass skin refers to the perfect state of your skin, full of glow and hydration.
TikTok content creators have been trying the glass skin hack to illuminate their skin and create the perfect dewy face.
The glass skin hashtag now has over a 209.4million views on TikTok.
“Glass skin is when your skin is at its very healthiest,” shared Peach & Lily founder Alicia Yoon with Healthline.
“In order for skin to appear poreless, luminous, and translucent, so many things have to happen. You can’t just be hydrated and look that way.”
“Your skin really needs to be its healthiest in all aspects. Babies have ‘see-through skin’ and that’s because their skin is still so healthy,” continued Yoon.
How can I hop on the ‘glass skin’ trend?
There is no specific product or a set routine classified as ‘glass skin.’
It is something people can individualize according to their likings and needs.

Many K-beauty experts, however, recommend using simple skincare steps instead of piling on products.
For example, TikTok creator and dermatologist dermdoctor tried the Instant Resurfacing Mask by Versed to achieve the glass skin look, giving him a perfect glow and shine.
TikTok content creator kixxah also shared her glass skin routine, where she first uses PanOxyl to wash her face.
She then uses Bio-Oil to give it a nice barrier throughout the night before going in with the Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum.
She finishes off her routine with the Drunk Elephant A-Gloei Maretinol Oil to seal everything.
Glass skin is essentially just referring to the perfect, dewy skin, so you can choose your products accordingly to create a flawless finish.
What are people saying about the ‘glass skin’ trend?
People have been thrilled about watching each other’s glass skin routine to find more impeccable products.
“I just bought panoxyl today, hope my skin looks like yours in the end?,” shared one user.
Another fan commented: “Love this!! Bc we only need a good simple cleanser, good simple moisturizer, night wrinkle cream or serum and under eye cream and that’s it’s! ✨✨✨✨”
Despite amazing products and tips on TikTok, it is important to know your skin and be careful about what you use, as everyone’s skin is different.
One user did not have a great experience by following a TikToker’s skincare routine: “panoxyl made me break out so bad i used it for awhile to see if it’d stop but it never did ?”
