So you have heard of glass skin … but have you heard of mirror skin? You might’ve seen this Korean beauty skincare concept floating around tiktok—skin so smooth, clear, and glowing it looks like it could reflect light. But what is mirror skin really? Is it achievable? And how do you get there without using 12 products twice a day?
In this video, I’m breaking down the science behind mirror skin, what makes it different from just ‘dewy’ skin, and the real steps I recommend to help patients achieve that radiant, healthy glow—without overdoing it.”

I love trying out the many Korean sunscreens out there, and have my favorites that I always go back to. The Haru Haru wonder is one of my favorites. I always, always recommend Korean sunscreens to people. I love using Dr. Althea 345 during the cold season.
I've been into K-beauty for 20+ years, and I love how much love it's getting.
Somebody give this to me in a 15 second bullet point
i love this product
Wow, you have your own line, I wanted to try it for my granddaughter, but this is confusing. Should we inquorate some of this?
Nothing suits me except the Bioderma Sebium Hydra moisturizer. But it's expensive in my country and I often need to buy two 40 ml products every month. Hoping to find a replacement in some Korean brand. 😭
Can I use this routine when I have acne on my skin?
라운드랩 많이 컸다.. 올리브영에서 일할 때 저렴하고 효과 좋아서 테스터 맨날 썼는데 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 😊😊
Hi Dr Ellis, I'm newbee here 🙂 your skin looks amazing! I watch this video till the end, but I was wodering, if there is any day or night cream to follow to maintain the skin look? I'm 56, Understand that the sun screen during the day. I have some sun spots and I notice more wrinkles around my eyes and forehead, because i play a lot of golf and under the sun a lot too. I appreciate your recomendation on what Kbeauty products should I get for the issues. Thank you and GOD Bless you!
Hi Dr. Ellis! Thank you for your informative content and product recommendations! I love this skin care routine. I want to incorporate Retinol in the evening and Vitamin C in the morning for anti-aging benefits but I am sensitive to Vitamin C. Do you have alternate recommendations for Vitamin C ?
Hot water burns and dries your skin so I have shorter, cooler showers. Then I pat my skin dry with a soft towel and apply a light moisturiser. Exercise and meditation can be helpful, too.
