I’ve always had pretty nice, low-maintenance skin but now that I’m in my forties I find it needs extra attention. One thing I’d really like to improve is getting the glassy look. It seems like most women who achieve this are pretty young and/or on tret. I don’t want to try tret because I’m very pale and already sun-sensitive. (At this point I’ve lost count of how many atypical things my dermatologist has lopped off, despite religiously using mineral sunscreen!)

My current skincare routine is here. It’s definitely made a difference for me but I’m looking to refine it.

What can I tweak to get glass skin? Or is it even possible at my age without tret?

    Thanks, but my bloodwork is excellent - no deficiencies! My hair and eyes are doing fine too. I’m naturally very pale, and very pale people tend to be sun-sensitive. In fact, I’ve had to have a number of precancerous spots removed from my skin. Physical sunscreen (zinc & titanium) are a must for me according to my dermatologist. But thank you anyway for your feedback!

      thanks for your feedback, i am happy that you already ruled that out, you seem to keep very good care of yourself, much more than i do to myself. so, sorry i intruded, i have nothing to say about cosmetics.
