How to get glass skin with Hourglass
Fresh off your trending page, this summer is all about achieving a lit-from-within glow and a seamless dewy finish
Step 1: Choose a dewy foundation
The key to creating glass skin not only lies within the foundation but the product application itself
Step 2: Take a brightening Concealer
Brightening your undereye with concealer not only evens out your skin tone but will also work to naturally contour your face and leave you with a luminous glow.
Step 3: Add a flush of colour
When it comes to glass skin, the secret is to add a sweep of colour to the apples of your cheeks and cheekbones
“Many people can be intimidated by creams because we’re used to powders. Powders are traditional and easy, but this is just as easy! The joy of having a formula that has as much pigment as these do, is that it allows you flexibility. Just applying one stamp and blending it out gives you a very light translucent colour but then you can keep building it and really get that impact, it’s a great versatile product.” Marc Reagan, Hourglass Global Artistry Director
Step 4: Illuminate your visage
Perhaps the most important step when it comes to glass skin is applying highlighter to give you an all-round glow. To help illuminate your visage
Step 5: The finishing touches
If you want to create the full trending glass skin look, we recommend finishing off with a sweep of the Hourglass
“For a soft, ultra-feminine look, I like to pair the same undertones. So, if I’m using a peachy blush, I’d pair it with a combined beige and rose lip to get that perfect in-between, peachy colour palette. That way, you’re still getting that wearable, subtle lip and you have a gorgeous pop on the cheek!” Chanel Temple, Hourglass Global Makeup Artist

As someone with an affinity for all things beauty, discovering fantastic new products is my not-so-secret obsession. Over the years I've tried and tested a mountains worth of creams, serums and cleansers, finding some of my favourite 'holy-grail' products along the way. However, I'm always on the lookout for more ways to nourish my hair, perfect my dewy base, or enhance my skincare routine. Working as a beauty blogger for over 3 years, I've been lucky enough to collaborate personally with lots of amazing beauty brands including Christian Dior, The Body Shop and Dermalogica. I've used the Dermalogica special cleansing gel religiously since I first got it and their products are some of my ultimate skincare faves. When it comes to cosmetics, NARS Sheer Glow foundation is definitely my go-to - I live for a light, glowy base!
