The Truth Behind 'Glass Skin'
That impossibly smooth, translucent complexion you see on K-drama stars isn't just about layering products. According to groundbreaking research from Seoul National University, the secret lies deeper – in your skin's protective barrier [2]. When this barrier is strong, it creates that coveted "transparent" look that's taken the beauty world by storm.
Why Most People Can't Achieve Glass Skin
Here's the fascinating part: research shows that up to 87% of people have a compromised skin barrier [3]. This means that no matter how many serums or essences you layer, you won't achieve that luminous glow until you fix your barrier first.
Signs your barrier needs help:
-
Skin looks dull despite products
-
Irregular texture
-
Inconsistent glow
-
Products don't seem to work
The LED Light Therapy Revolution
This is where cutting-edge science meets K-beauty wisdom. Researchers discovered that specific wavelengths of LED light can actually communicate with your skin's barrier layer, supporting its natural repair processes [4]. This breakthrough led us to develop DermaGlow's Multi-Wavelength Light Therapy technology, specifically calibrated to help rebuild your skin's natural barrier.
