This.

But don't discount how many "skin influencers" are using filters to show their results. So some of it is photo editing.

What you see online is mostly photo editing. If you see the rare person in real life with a glassy looking complexion, they're often east Asian, and it's a combination of unblemished skin with very small pores (perhaps enhanced by laser work over time), and chemical peels applied right before going out. So the person needs to have won the genetic lottery, taken great care of their skin and avoided the sun all their life (which is a particularly east Asian thing to do) and on top of that, withstand certain procedures.

It's not just oily skin, it's perfectly smooth with no color variations. I'd imagine many are selling creams etc, but really it takes lasers and chemical peels.

It all started as a thing when the craze of "snailing" started. That involved layering your face with occlusives like vaseline at night.

Powerful prescription topicals can get you that look.

See your Derm if that’s what you desire.

And the cost in time/energy?

Having lived in South Korea, I can tell you it is very real. Many of the women there have completely flawless skin.

Maybe it's genetics, or diet, or the fact they didn't use tanning beds as teens. Maybe I wasn't doing the routine right. Maybe I'm just cursed with textured skin, but I was never able to achieve it, no matter how many Tony Molys I visited or how many facials I got. My skin definitely improved while there, but it was never glass-like.

You just sound jealous of these beautiful young women with flawless looking skin.

Glass skin involves a lot more than just a "dedicated skin care routine". Nobody's jealous; it's a horrific waste of time and resources for a trend that look fake and plastic. At best, this is stupid behavior. More likely, it's some kind of mental pathology. Just have a face. Your face is fine.

I would kill not for having to think about acne.

It's passé now.

I agree it looks like sweat or they didn’t take off their mask. I think the smoothness also comes from removing the baby hairs on their face through shaving.

Mom of teen and tween girl who do too much to their face even though they don’t need to!
