frida’s recipe for glazed donut skin
What is Glazed Donut Skin?!
Who would have thought a Krispy Kreme donut would be our 2022 skin inspiration? Arguably the best trend from this year so far is our desire for glazed donut skin like Hailey Bieber. This trend requires us to shy away from matte, thick makeup and gravitate towards dewy, glassy, fresh, hydrated skin. This look can be achieved with glossy makeup, but proper glazed donut skin is achieved with the right skin care.
Ok I want it! How do I get it?
step one
Step one is cleansing. We need a fresh, clean slate to apply our products. I recommend the Gentle Cleanser by ZO if you have normal skin, Hydrating Cleanser by ZO if you have dry skin, and the Exfoliating Cleanser by ZO if you have acne prone or oily skin
step two
Step two is using a powerful and potent hydrating product. Once you have gently cleansed, apply a hydrating serum to the skin. The ideal time to apply this is in the minute after the shower or cleanse, while your skin is still slightly damp. This will increase absorption and help achieve our dewy glow. I recommend the SkinCeuticals HA Intensifier Serum or the DMK Hydrating Beta Glucan Serum (Beta Gel).
step three
Step three (AM only) is using the powerful AOX Illuminating Serum by ZO. This is a concentrated antioxidant serum that provides protection against pollution + premature signs of aging while visibly brightening the skin with a subtly luminous, soft-focus finish. It leaves you with an amazing iridescent glow.
step four
Step four will depend on the time of day. In the AM, you will apply the Glow SPF 50 by Color Science. This is my all time favourite sunscreen that provides amazing protection and leaves you with minimal coverage an amazing dewy finish. In the PM you will apply the Growth Factor Serum by ZO. My all time favourite product, this serum is a lightweight gel for all skin types that helps minimizes the appearance of expression lines and wrinkles, while restoring hydration and reinforcing the skin's protective barrier.
Finally, show your lips some love. My favourite lip products are the Cell Balm by Glymed or the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask from Sephora.
You Go, Hailey!
