I Have Acne Prone Skin… So How Did I Get Glass Skin? (My Full Routine + 3 Key Steps)

How to get glass skin if you're acne prone. I have acne-prone skin… and for years I genuinely believed “glass skin” just wasn’t for me. I thought it was only for people with naturally perfect skin, not skin that breaks out, scars, and reacts to everything. But after over 10 years of managing acne, testing countless products, and making a lot of skincare mistakes, I finally realised something important: 👉 Glass skin is possible even if you’re acne-prone, you just need the right approach. In this video, I’m showing you my full step-by-step glass skin routine specifically designed for acne-prone skin. Not just what I use, but: • Why each step works for acne-prone skin • What most people get wrong • How I adjust my routine when I’m breaking out • Product recommendations for different skin types We’ll cover everything from cleansing, exfoliation, hydration layering, serums, tretinoin/azelaic acid, moisturisers, sunscreen, shaving for smoothness, and optional glow boosters. ⚠️ Important note: I always prioritise non-comedogenic and acne-safe products, but everyone’s skin is different. Even “safe” products can irritate some people. Always patch test first. Please note that I talk about a lot of different products and treatments throughout the video and this is based on my personal experience. Please tread carefully and always consult a dermatologist/healthcare professional for advice when combining multiple treatments e.g. using tretinoin whilst exfoliating/shaving as incorrect use can lead to worsening of skin/more breakouts. A lot of the time, less is more! Also be careful with fragrance and essential oils, I share my personal experience with this in the video. ✨ If you’ve ever thought: • “Glass skin isn’t for acne-prone skin” • “Everything breaks me out” • “I don’t know what I’m doing wrong” This video is for you. ⏱️ CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS 00:00: I'm acne prone...but I got glass skin 00:45: Step 1 04:26: Step 2 06:52: Step 3 09:03: Step 4 12:00: Step 5 14:55: Step 6 17:15: Step 7 20:33: Step 8 24:00: Step 9 26:45: Bonus 27:54: Final Thoughts Products mentioned: Oil cleansers: Hada labo cleansing oil, Kose Softmyo Speedy cleansing oil, Madagascar Centella light cleansing oil Cleansers: Cerave hydrating cleanser, Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser, rhode pineapple refresh Exfoliants: Paula's choice 2% BHA, Drunk Elephant sukari babyfacial Toners: Hada Labo hyaluronic acid toner, Tirtir milk skin toner light, rhode glazing milk, cosrx 6 peptide serum Serums: cosrx snail mucin essence, anua 10% niacinamide 4% TXA, Byoma hydrating serum, torriden dive in serum Treatments: Tretinoin, azelaic acid 20% Moisturisers: Dr Althea 345 cream, Laneige waterbank, rhode barrier butter, la roche posay cicaplast baume, cerave moisturising cream, cosrx snail mucin all in one cream, drunk elephant f balm electrolyte waterfacial Sunscreens: laneige hydro uv defence susncreen, cosrx ultra light invisible sunscreen, hada labo suncreen, re-answer brightening tone up sunscreen Additional: medicube collagen night wrapping mask #GlassSkin #AcneProneSkin #SkincareRoutine #GlowySkin #SkincareTips #Tretinoin #AzelaicAcid #Niacinamide #SkinBarrier #KBeautySkincare #DoubleCleansing #HydratedSkin #ClearSkinJourney #SkincareForAcne
