Glass Skin Without the 10-Step Routine: Here’s How

07 May 2025

There’s a quiet revolution happening in British bathrooms. No more 10-step marathons with toner number four and mystery serums. We’re all after that radiant, poreless glass skin — but we’d quite like to get there before the kettle boils.

Here’s the good news: achieving that dewy, translucent finish doesn’t require an East Asian skincare diploma or 45 minutes of your life every morning. Welcome to the minimalist’s guide to glass skin, powered by vegan ingredients, CBD, and just five smart moves.

Step 1

Start Fresh – But Don’t Strip

A clean canvas is key, but let’s not wage war on your face. Opt for a vegan gel or cream cleanser that respects your skin barrier — think chamomile, aloe vera or green tea rather than industrial-grade citrus.

CBD-infused cleansers are especially effective for calming irritation and balancing oil without leaving you oily or Sahara-dry. Start your glow-up gently.

step 2

Exfoliate (But Only Like, Twice a Week)

Dead cells are the enemies of light reflection. A mild AHA or PHA exfoliant removes dullness and lets your natural glow through — no microbeads, no scratchy nonsense.

Look for vegan formulas with fruit enzymes (like papaya or pineapple), and bonus points for those spiked with CBD, which helps reduce inflammation and soothe post-exfoliation redness.

Step 3

Serum Is the Secret

Here’s where we bring in the big guns — hydration and repair. A vegan hyaluronic acid serum layered under a CBD-rich concentrate does two things: plumps your skin like a soufflé, and reduces redness, blemishes or general morning moodiness.

Our pick? Try the high-performing blends from Cderma by Céline — Swiss-crafted skincare where science meets serenity. Their CBD formulations are clean, conscious, and seriously chic.

step 4

Moisturise Like You Mean It

You can’t glow if you’re dry. Go for a lightweight but nourishing moisturiser packed with vegan oils (like squalane or jojoba) and anti-inflammatory CBD.

It locks in hydration without clogging your pores — no more “glass skin or breakout” dilemmas. This is where the dew gets serious.

Step 5

Protect That Glow

Even in London fog, UVs are plotting against your skin. SPF is non-negotiable. A vegan, mineral-based sunscreen with CBD? Chef’s kiss.

And no, it won’t make you look like a Victorian ghost. New-gen formulas are sheer, breathable, and designed to work with your skincare, not against it.

Final Thoughts

Forget 10 steps and 20 products. With just five smart moves, a little CBD magic, and clean vegan formulas, glass skin is no longer a pipe dream — it’s your new reality.
Less faff. More glow. Go on, dazzle them.
