Glass skin 2.0 is here. And it's so much simpler than the OG. Here's how to get glass skin in 2026.

Remember the 11-step routines of glass skin back in 2017? In 2026, glass skin is all about dewy, smooth skin all over (your body included) with just a few high-performance, barrier-supporting skincare products.

Below, we're going to show you exactly how to achieve glass skin from head to toe. 

 

What is Glass Skin?

Glass skin is a Korean beauty trend and refers to skin that appears smooth, clear and hydrated with a luminous light-reflecting glow that looks like glass. It is achieved through a multi-step skincare routine that emphasizes hydration, moisture, and skin barrier support, making the skin look plump and supple.

Since its import in 2017, glass skin has risen in popularity. It has also been modernized and simplified, making it more accessible for people wanting a poreless, dewy look without a complex routine.

 

How to Get Glass Skin

You can easily achieve glass skin with a combination of cleansing, exfoliating, and hydration with good glass skin products.

 

Glass Skin Routine for Face & Body

 

1. Deeply Cleanse

To minimize pores and freshen up your skin, cleansing is a can't-miss step. It helps remove excess oil and impurities to prevent clogged pores and provide you with a clean base for the next steps.

Truly Skin Smoothie Gentle Facial Cleanser with hyaluronic acid removes pore-clogging impurities while preserving skin's natural oils for a deep yet delicate daily cleanse that leaves you soft and clean. 

 

2. Exfoliate

Next, exfoliate your face and body to get rid of dry, dead skin cells that make your skin look dull and rough. You can't miss exfoliating if you want smooth, glass skin. When dead cells build up, they stop your skin from reflecting light, which ultimately steals your glow.

Dermatologists recommend exfoliating once or twice a week to remove dead cells and enable your skincare products to penetrate better into the layers of your skin. 

If you want smooth, radiant skin all over, use Truly 24K Gold Black Soap Luxury Cleanser which refines skin texture on the face + body with a blend of salicylic acid, 24k gold, and turmeric.

 

3. Hydrate

The final step for your face: hydrate. Hydration gives skin a smooth, plump texture and a dewy, fresh look. 

Truly The Hydrating Face Serum delivers multi-layer hydration with a powerful blend of hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and Tru-Barrier Complex™.

Lightweight and fast-absorbing, you'll feel immediately quenched without any greasy residue. Plus, it's dermatologist-tested and fragrance-free.

 

4. Moisturize

Finally, you definitely don't want to miss your body. Dryness, rough texture, and hyperpigmentation show up there too, after all.

For a glowing body, apply a few drops of Truly Glass Skin After Shave Oil. A base of blueberry oil infused with vitamin C and niacinamide, this body oil is packed with antioxidants that soften, brighten, and leave your skin gorgeously glassy.

 

The Best Glass Skin Products in 2026

 

What Skincare Ingredients are Best for Glass Skin?

Hyaluronic Acid

A moisture magnet that attracts and retains water, hyaluronic acid plumps your skin with hydration while supporting collagen production for a smoother, dewier appearance. 

 

Niacinamide

A potent form of vitamin B3, niacinamide helps to maintain optimal moisture levels, regulates sebum production, and visibly improves the appearance of pores. Regular use of niacinamide in skincare can result in a more balanced and healthy-looking complexion.

 

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant that combats hyperpigmentation and dull skin for brighter, more-even looking skin. It's also a key ingredient for getting an instant glow.

 

Jojoba Oil

A non-comedogenic emollient, jojoba oil boasts a unique composition similar to the natural oils produced by your skin, making it an effective moisturizer that helps to reduce trans-epidermal water loss. It also aids in regulating oil production, resulting in a soft, smooth, and radiant complexion without any greasiness.
