We all know that the beauty industry is constantly evolving. With innovative new skincare terms, trends, and products it can be overwhelming. If you're curious about the latest skin terms and trends, check out our comprehensive list of buzz-worthy new concepts.
Slugging
Slugging is a popular Korean skincare trend that involves coating your face with a thick layer of petroleum jelly or Vaseline before bedtime. This helps to lock in moisture overnight and leave your skin feeling hydrated and soft in the morning.
Skin Flooding
Skin flooding is an intense form of hydration for dry or dehydrated skin. It involves using multiple layers of hydrating products such as serums, oils, creams, and masks to boost your skin's moisture.
Skin Cycling
Skin cycling is a practice where you switch up your skincare routine every few weeks or months depending on your skin's needs. This allows you to target areas of concern, like acne or wrinkles, without overloading your skin with too many active ingredients.
Double Cleansing
Double cleansing is a two-step process to remove makeup, dirt, oil, and other impurities from the skin. The first step involves using an oil-based cleanser to break down makeup and other debris on the skin's surface, followed by a water-based cleanser to cleanse pores deep and remove any remaining residue.
Glass Skin
Glass skin is a K-beauty term that describes a perfectly smooth, luminous complexion with no visible pores or blemishes. To achieve this look, it's essential to use gentle exfoliating products, hydrating serums, and moisturizers that will help keep your skin looking dewy all day long.
7 Skin Method
The 7 Skin Method is another popular Korean skincare trend where you apply toner seven times in succession after cleansing your face to deeply hydrate the skin without feeling heavy or greasy. This method helps lock in moisture while providing antioxidant benefits for brighter-looking skin.
J-Beauty
J-Beauty stands for Japanese Beauty which focuses on natural ingredients like green tea extract, rice bran oil, sake ferment extract, honey extract, etc., as well as traditional Japanese techniques like a facial massage for glowing, healthy, looking skin from within.
