Having glowy skin is all about getting your skin to its healthiest and this does take time, so being diligent with your skincare routine is important. 

Every person’s skincare routine is different, so researching what best suits your skin is the best way to achieve the ‘glass skin’ look. 

Look into including a double cleanser, essence, retinol, serum, moisturiser and sunscreen into your skin routine.

While the products our favourite celebs use can break the bank, there are some great high-street options and even specific foods can play a huge role: 

• Eating more healthy fat. Upping healthy fats in your diet can help promote glowy, clear skin. Cold-water fish such as salmon or sardines are the perfect healthy fat due to their high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which can reduce inflammation, and contain antioxidant vitamin E. Avocados are also beneficial for reducing inflammation as they include oleic acid.  
• Eating more fruit and vegetables. Vegetables such as carrots can help keep the skin safe from free radicals and have a high water content, which can flush out toxins and bring out a natural glow on the face. Papaya is good for skin brightening and contains an enzyme papain, which can help eliminate dark spots.  
• Drinking more water. Drinking more water keeps your body hydrated and helps maintain skin elasticity.
