"Glass Skin" effect

"Glass Skin" refers to a complexion that appears luminous, hydrated, and free from imperfections. This ideal is characterised by smoothness, even skin tone, and a healthy glow – features that are the result of a delicate balance of hydration, texture, and clarity. Achieving this look is not merely about surface appearance; it involves a complex interplay of skin health factors, including optimal moisture levels, smoothness, and minimal visible imperfections. Understanding and replicating these factors is essential in developing products that can deliver true "Glass Skin."

Our new clinical testing method provides a precise, reproducible way to measure and evaluate the "Glass Skin" effect. Through the use of controlled and standardised lighting conditions, we assess key characteristics that contribute to the glass-like appearance of skin.

The clinical evaluation focuses on the following attributes:

• Luminosity
• Rosiness/Glow
• Skin Smoothness
• Pore Size
• Imperfections
• Skin Hydration

Suitable for all phototypes, this method provides valuable insights into luminosity, texture, hydration, and skin smoothness, supporting the development of products that deliver verifiable results. This helps you to create formulations/products that truly meet consumer expectations for flawless, glass-like skin.
