Glow is here to stay. In Korean beauty philosophy, glass skin became iconic: transparent, healthy-looking, almost reflecting the light. Yet now a new trend has arrived: cloud skin. Soft-focus, velvety, luxurious – like a dreamy filter embracing the face.
Glass Skin
The crystal glow
Skin that looks almost “wet,” with light bouncing off every curve of the face.
How to achieve it:
- Layered hydration (essences, serums, hyaluronic acid).
- Lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer.
- Liquid highlighter and a touch of facial oil.
Best for: normal to dry complexions, or anyone who loves that “fresh-out-of-the-shower” look.
Cloud Skin
The soft filter
Not matte, not shiny. Something in-between – a velvety veil that smooths and refines.
How to achieve it:
- Primer that blurs and evens skin texture.
- Satin or soft-matte foundation.
- Ultra-fine powder applied lightly, diffusing light without heaviness.
- Subtle highlighter for a gentle glow.
Best for: oily or combination skin types, or those seeking a polished, refined look without going overboard.
Which trend suits you?
- Choose Glass skin if you love a dewy, radiant finish.
- Opt for Cloud skin if you prefer a velvety texture that smooths imperfections.
