Creating a Radiant, Hydrated Base

Glass skin—a smooth, radiant, and dewy complexion—is a trend that emphasizes hydration and natural beauty. Today, we’re sharing our top tips for achieving this glowing look, starting with skin prep and finishing with makeup techniques for a flawless finish.

The Trick: Creating a Radiant, Hydrated Base

Prep: The foundation of glass skin starts with a well-prepped base. Begin with a gentle exfoliation to smooth your skin and remove dead cells. Follow with layers of hydrating serums and moisturizers to lock in moisture and create a plump, hydrated look.

Application: Use a lightweight, luminous foundation or tinted moisturizer to even out your skin tone while letting your natural glow shine through. Apply with a damp sponge or a soft brush for a sheer, natural finish.

Hint: A brush like the 968 BDHD Phase II Foundation/Contour Brush is ideal for blending cream or liquid foundations seamlessly.

The Key Step: Strategic Highlighting
To achieve the glass skin effect, focus on enhancing the high points of your face. Apply a cream or liquid highlighter to your cheekbones, brow bone, down the bridge of your nose, and the center of your forehead for a radiant glow.

Hint: For precise application, the 944 Tapered Contour Brush works beautifully to softly diffuse highlighter without streaks.

Pro Tip: Layer Your Glow
For long-lasting radiance, layer your highlighter. Start with a cream or liquid formula, then set it lightly with a powder highlighter for a multidimensional glow. Remember, less is more—focus on blending to maintain that natural, dewy effect.

Why It Works: The glass skin trend highlights the beauty of well-nourished, glowing skin. By focusing on hydration and strategic product placement, you can achieve a fresh, youthful look that enhances your natural beauty.
