The UK Daily Mirror recently profiled Julia, an influencer known for her account, Julia Glow Guide, who shared her four-step skincare routine with a focus on Korean beauty products.
In a TikTok post, Julia described her routine as a “cheat sheet to glassy, plump, glowy skin,” emphasizing that skincare includes diet and hydration.
Four Steps to Glowing Skin
-
Dietary Changes: Julia suggests reducing sugar and processed foods. As per the British Association of Dermatologists, high-glycemic foods can increase oil production and inflammation, contributing to acne and dull skin. A diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, and fruits protects the skin barrier and reduces inflammation.
-
Supplements: Adding vitamins and collagen to matcha is her second step. Collagen is vital for skin elasticity and hydration, though its natural production declines with age. While some studies support collagen supplements for improving skin firmness, the UK’s National Health Service calls for more research on its long-term effects.
-
Red Light Therapy: Julia recommends using an LED mask, noting a noticeable improvement. Red light can reduce inflammation and stimulate collagen, potentially softening fine lines. Dermatologists advise using certified devices and consulting specialists for persistent issues.
- K-Beauty Products: Julia has switched to Korean beauty products, focusing on collagen and peptides. She appreciates the K-beauty emphasis on hydration, prevention, and gentle, multi-step routines.
