How to Get Glass Skin? Korean Skincare Morning & Evening Routine Order

Glass skin is the hallmark of Korean skincare, epitomizing a radiant, smooth, and almost translucent complexion that appears effortlessly flawless. This glowing, dewy look has taken the beauty world by storm, inspiring millions to follow the K-beauty skincare philosophy.

At OOTD Beauty, we are redefining glass skin through advanced skincare science and innovation. Our Korea-made products are meticulously designed to provide real results, combining cutting-edge research with the time-honored principles of K-beauty.

If you have been wondering how to achieve glass skin, let us walk you through the ultimate morning and evening skincare routine, featuring OOTD Beauty’s revolutionary products.

👉 Morning Routine: The Key to Radiance

1. Gentle Cleanse for a Fresh Start

A clean base is essential for any skincare routine. Overnight, your skin works to repair itself, often producing excess oils and sweat. Using a gentle cleanser removes impurities without stripping the skin’s natural moisture barrier. Opt for a formula designed to hydrate while cleansing, as dryness is the enemy of a glowing complexion.


#OOTD Beauty offers two standout cleansing products that address different skin needs while ensuring effective and gentle results. Both cleansers are designed for daily use, fitting seamlessly into any skincare routine.

1. Green Plum Low pH Gel Cleansing Gel: A Soothing Start for Sensitive Skin

The Green Plum Low pH Gel Cleansing Gel is specially formulated for those with sensitive skin. With its low pH formula, it works to balance the skin’s natural barrier, ensuring that your face feels refreshed without the tight, dry sensation often associated with harsher cleansers.

Whether you use it in your morning or evening routine, this gel cleanser removes impurities with a gentle touch, making it a go-to for anyone seeking a mild, irritation-free cleanse.

 


Many influencers, including Rennie Lee, tested OOTD Green Plum Cleansing Gel and found it effective.

Rennie Lee says ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It’s a cleanser that lathers easily into the gentlest foam! No noticeable scent (no fragrances added). It cleanses well and effectively while leaving my skin soft and smooth. My skin feels comfy after using it. Recommend for all skin types.

NavyaAshok ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This gentle yet effective gel harnesses the hydrating and calming properties of green plum extract to maintain your skin’s natural balance.

Johanna_CP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I love that this cleanser has a clear and pretty gel texture, it’s unscented and suitable for sensitive skin after using it my skin feels hydrated, and soft, and looks radiant 🥰✨

2. Heartleaf Pore Zero Cleanser: The Solution for Oily and Acne-Prone Skin

The Heartleaf Pore Zero Cleanser is designed to offer deep cleansing without compromising skin health. This foaming cleanser creates a rich lather that reaches deep into pores, removing impurities, oil, and buildup effectively. It leaves your skin feeling clean and revitalized, making it perfect for those who need that extra boost in their cleansing routine.

2. Prep Your Skin with a Hydrating Toner

Toners play a crucial role in the Korean skincare routine. They help restore the skin’s pH balance after cleansing while preparing your skin to absorb the next layers of skincare. Look for hydrating and soothing ingredients, such as niacinamide or aloe vera, to give your skin an extra boost of moisture.

Our Collagen Plumping Toner A.M. is a lightweight, watery toner suitable for all skin types, including oily skin. It is infused with Rose Water, Niacinamide, Collagen, and Peptides to nourish and hydrate the skin while reducing dehydration.

 Glowing & Plumping Toner for Day

This Toner is a great way to start your day with a radiant complexion. It is quickly absorbed by the skin and does not leave behind any sticky residue.

It is also clinically proven to be non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic - making it suitable for acne prone and sensitive skin. It is fragrance, and alcohol free.

3. Vitamin C Serum for Brightness

Vitamin C is a superstar ingredient for morning skincare. It brightens the skin, fades dark spots, and protects against free radicals caused by UV rays and pollution. By incorporating a Vitamin C serum, you are giving your skin the antioxidants it needs to maintain its glow throughout the day.

4. Lightweight Moisturizer

Formulated with peptide, ceramide, and panthenol as key ingredients, OOTD Peptide Cream helps lock in moisture and strengthen the skin barrier. This Skin Barrier Repair Cream leaves skin supple and moisturized all day long by charging moisture deep into the skin, and nourishes and protects your skin from within. 

Perfect for all skin types and is especially beneficial for those with dry, sensitive, or mature skin. This effective Skin Fix Barrier Cream doubles as a reliable Skinfix Moisturizer for daily use.

👉 2 Major Benefits Involve

  • Improved Skin Elasticity
    This way, reaching an appropriate kind of peptide can enhance your skin elasticity by a greater degree. They work by signaling your skin cells to produce more collagen and elastin, which in turn makes the top layers of your skin firmer and less susceptible to oxidative stress. Go for products such as the Peptide Skin Barrier Cream of OOTD Beauty.

  • Reduced Wrinkles
    Peptides are a great way to reduce wrinkles! They help your body produce more collagen, which fills in fine lines and smooths your skin. OOTD Beauty has a fantastic Wrinkle Lift Retinol Serum on the website.

👉 Evening Routine: Repair and Rejuvenate

1. Double Cleansing for Deep Purity

Double cleansing is a cornerstone of the K-beauty philosophy, ensuring that your skin is completely free of makeup, sunscreen, and impurities. Start with an oil-based cleanser to dissolve makeup and excess sebum, then follow up with a water-based cleanser to remove any residual dirt.

2. Exfoliate (Twice a Week)

Exfoliation is critical for maintaining smooth, glowing skin. Use a chemical exfoliant like AHAs, BHAs, or fruit enzymes to gently remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. Be careful not to overdo it—exfoliating once or twice a week is enough to reveal brighter, fresher skin without irritation.

OOTD Clarifying Niacinamide Serum is your essential companion on the journey to radiant, blemish-free skin. Formulated with niacinamide, this serum is your go-to solution for acne-prone skin and exfoliating away dead skin cells.

Active ingredients Include

  • Niacinamide: a form of vitamin B3, works wonders by regulating sebum production, reducing redness, and minimizing the appearance of blemishes. It helps to clarify your complexion and improve overall skin texture, leaving you with a smoother, more refined look.
  • BHA: Gently exfoliates all skin types, while drawing in moisture, providing skin with a hydrated feel.


Formulated to Exfoliate & Smooth Trouble Skin

3. Apply an Essence for Deep Hydration

Essences are unique to Korean skincare and provide an additional layer of hydration. They’re lightweight, water-based products that penetrate deeply to deliver active ingredients. This step enhances your skin’s ability to absorb the serums and moisturizers that follow.

4. Target Skin Concerns with a Night Serum.

Evening is the perfect time to use serums with active ingredients like retinol or peptides. These ingredients promote cell turnover, improve skin texture, and stimulate collagen production while you sleep.

OOTD AHA BHA CLARIFYING SERUM P.M. brings a mild yet effective exfoliating effect to promote skin cell renewal overnight, leaving you with smooth & refined skin.

  • AHA (glycolic acid): natural acids derived from plants, creating a peeling effect of dead skin cells to help make the skin appear smoother.
  • BHA (Salicylic Acid): treats acne by reducing swelling and redness and unplugging blocked skin pores to allow pimples to shrink by softening and loosening dry, scaly, thickened skin
  • PHA Complex(GluconicAcid, LactobionicAcid, MandelicAcid + Hyaluronic acid): Gluconicacid promotes exfoliation and helps with skin cell renewal, It is an exfoliant with excellent moisturizing properties.
  • Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic Acid helps reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles retaining moisture in the skin, and infusing all layers of the skin with valuable, rejuvenating moisture, leading to smoother, plumper skin.
  • Papain: This is a natural enzyme that promotes skin renewal and cell turnover. It also acts as a natural exfoliator that effectively dissolves dead skin cells, improving skin texture and appearance. It may also open clogged pores.

Essential FAQs About Achieving Glass Skin

1. What is glass skin?

Glass skin refers to a skincare goal of having a smooth, flawless, and luminous complexion that appears almost translucent, like glass. It emphasizes hydration, even skin tone, and a natural glow through consistent care and the use of effective products.

2. Can anyone achieve glass skin, regardless of skin type?

Yes! The concept of glass skin is about improving the health and hydration of your skin, regardless of whether you have oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin. However, your routine should be tailored to your skin type and concerns. For example:

  • Oily Skin: Focus on lightweight, non-comedogenic hydration.
  • Dry Skin: Use rich, deeply hydrating products.
  • Sensitive Skin: Choose calming and soothing ingredients like aloe vera or Centella Asiatica.

3. How long does it take to achieve glass skin?

Achieving glass skin requires patience and consistency. It depends on your current skin condition and how well you stick to your routine. On average, it can take 4–8 weeks to see noticeable improvements, as your skin’s natural renewal cycle is approximately 28 days.

4. How to Get Korean Glass Skin Naturally at Home

To achieve Korean glass skin naturally at home, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and using natural toners like rosewater. Double cleanse with an oil-based cleanser followed by a gentle one to keep your skin clean. Exfoliate weekly with natural scrubs like oatmeal or sugar, and use DIY masks with ingredients like honey or aloe vera for hydration. Finish with a light facial oil or moisturizer and protect your skin with sunscreen daily.

5. How many steps are in a typical Korean skincare routine for glass skin?

The traditional Korean skincare routine can have up to 10 steps, but it’s not mandatory to follow all of them. The essential steps include:

  • Cleansing (double cleanse at night)
  • Toning
  • Essence
  • Serum
  • Moisturizer

You can simplify or expand your routine based on your needs and preferences.

6. Is exfoliation necessary to achieve glass skin?

Yes, but in moderation. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, helping your skin look smoother and more radiant. Use a chemical exfoliant (like AHAs or BHAs) 1–2 times a week to avoid over-exfoliating, which can irritate.

Conclusion: Start Your Journey to Glass Skin

Achieving glass skin isn’t just about following trends—it’s about nurturing your skin’s health and radiance from within. By adopting a consistent morning and evening routine, you can unlock your skin’s potential and embrace the natural glow that defines this iconic K-beauty trend.
