Glass Skin: Dry Skin vs Oily Skin

How to customize your routine for your skin type

By Lindsey Rapp · Licensed Esthetician · 4 Min Read

Glass skin isn't a one-size-fits-all routine. Whether your skin is dry, oily, or combination, the goal is the same, hydrated, smooth, glowing skin. The difference is how you get there.

For Dry Skin

Deep Hydration and Barrier Repair

Dry skin lacks oil and often lacks hydration too, so your routine should focus on both adding hydration and locking it in.

Oily skin is often dehydrated, which can make it look shiny but still dull.

For Oily Skin

Lightweight Hydration, No Heavy Layers

Oily skin produces more oil, but that doesn't mean it's hydrated. Use the same Milk Boosting Serum for hydration without heaviness, and finish with a light moisturizer to keep skin balanced.

Combination

Can You Have Both?

Yes, very common. You may have dryness in some areas and oiliness in others. Focus on hydration across the entire face while adjusting moisture levels where needed.
