Keeping your glow through the chaos sounds like a challenge, but it’s actually about to be the easiest part of your month if you follow our party-ready glass skin guide.

Our team has personally tested and approved this party-ready glass skin routine that keeps your base fresh and radiant while you’re hopping from event to event. Even if you’re dealing with seasonal dryness and dehydration this time of year, consider this your shortcut to a plump, luminous base that plays well with makeup and glows solo.

Ready to learn our holiday party skin prep secrets? Below, 5 BOJ tips for glass skin that steals the show.

1. Mask to reset.

We usually think of face masks as a slow moment for self-care, but they’re also a huge time saver during the holidays. Instead of booking an hour-long facial at the spa, grab Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask or Revive Under Eye Patch to get ready fast. Finish choosing an outfit, doing your hair, or wrapping that last-minute gift while they do their thing.

Our Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask resets your complexion in just 10-15 minutes without having to leave your house. We especially recommend this formula if your skin is feeling dry, dull, or rough. It’s packed with our Rice Wine Complex, smoothing rice hull powder, honey, and kaolin clay to exfoliate, soothe, hydrate, and boost glow. Gently massage it in as you rinse off so that the rice hull powder can slough off dead skin cells for a soft, smooth base.

For a more targeted approach, you can choose our Revive Under Eye Patch instead, packed with a powerful blend of ginseng root water, retinal, collagen, and peptide. These wing-shaped hydrogel patches help visibly smooth and nourish your under eyes for a lifted, awakened appearance. You can also apply them to lines on your forehead, cheeks, and neck for an additional dose of multi-targeted firming care. If you find that your concealer tends to sink into lines or catch on skin texture, you’ll love the instant boost you get from this holiday hero.

2. Use a shine-balancing toner.

Remember: We want to be glowy, not greasy. That means starting your skincare routine with Glow Replenishing Rice Milk. Not only does it hydrate without heaviness, it also helps the rest of your skincare products absorb better and balances sebum levels for a fresh, natural-looking finish. Shake up the unique dual-layer formula before you apply; the rice-infused moisture layer nourishes skin, while the Sebum Control Layer stops unwanted shine from sneaking through. It’s perfect for balancing all skin types, whether you’re oily, dry, or combination.

3. Choose serums that turn up the glow.

Whether you plan to keep it subtle with the highlighter or add a dusting of shimmer after your skincare, there’s nothing quite like Glow Serum for getting that lit-from-within look. Cushiony and fast-absorbing, it layers beautifully over your toner to add instant hydration and irresistible glow. This formula is also great for helping further smooth your base. It’s infused with propolis (a natural substance produced by honey bees), niacinamide, and gentle BHAs. This is your ultimate trio for soothing stressed skin, refining texture and pores, and building a natural glow.

4. Lock in lasting hydration.

Want your skin to look as dewy at the end of the night as it does before you leave the house? Then this is the step you can’t skip. Dynasty Cream is the key to giving long-lasting moisture and a bouncy, plumped finish that helps your foundation, concealer, and cushions glide on like butter. Formulated with rice bran water, ginseng, squalane, and niacinamide, it contains everything your skin needs for deep hydration and winter-proof nourishment.

During party season, we love incorporating this miracle cream into our makeup looks. If you have extremely dry skin, use it as a moisture mask by applying a thick layer to skin for 10 minutes, then gently patting away the excess once it absorbs. Or, try mixing a tiny dot with your foundation to create a breathable tinted moisturizer that won’t get cakey. You can apply the same hack to your favorite liquid and cream bronzers, highlighters, and blush for a dreamy, dewy finish. Just remember: A little bit goes a long way.

5. Skip steps, not SPF!

We’re known for taking no days off when it comes to suncare, and the holidays are no exception. Finishing your routine with SPF is crucial to keeping your complexion healthy year-round. And with the right makeup-friendly formulas that leave zero white cast, you won’t even notice you’re wearing it.

To amplify your glow, reach for our iconic Day Dew Sunscreen. Made with hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and panthenol, it boosts radiance without feeling sticky or uncomfortable and looks incredible under makeup (and in photos). It’s also water-resistant, just in case you get caught in a December downpour.

For our global community, we recommend Relief Sun for a similarly moisturizing feel and glowy finish. It’s packed with rice extracts and features a creamy, comfortable texture that won’t cause your base to pill or go patchy. Both of these best-selling SPF formulas are the perfect finishing step to your holiday glow guide.

Remember: This month is about living in the moment and enjoying your time with the people who matter most. With this routine, you can count on a glow that goes all season—so you can get back to enjoying the party.
