KOREAN GLASS SKIN FACIAL TRAINING

This Seoul Glass Skin Facial course, delivered in collaboration with The Seoul Formula, is designed for qualified facial therapists who wish to introduce Korean-inspired facial treatments focused on skin clarity, hydration, and long-term skin health.

Delivered on a private basis, this course allows close supervision throughout the practical session, ensuring techniques are performed calmly, safely, and effectively.

The training focuses not only on facial technique, but on understanding the glass skin philosophy, treatment flow, and the use of advanced tools such as an ultrasonic skin spatula and LED light therapy to enhance exfoliation, product absorption, and overall skin response.

  • are already qualified in facial treatments

  • have a basic understanding of skin and skincare

  • want to offer refined, Korean-inspired facial treatments

  • The Seoul Glass Skin Facial is rooted in Korean skincare philosophy, prioritising hydration, barrier support, and long-term skin vitality over aggressive correction.

    This course explores how Korean-led facial rituals differ from traditional Western facials, introducing a gentler, ingredient-led approach designed to support the skin’s natural balance while delivering visible, luminous results. The treatment flow also incorporates ultrasonic skin spatula exfoliation and LED light therapy as supportive modalities within the facial ritual.

    • The Korean glass skin philosophy and its professional application

    • Key differences between Korean-led and Western facial approaches

    • Skin analysis with a focus on hydration, barrier health, and balance

    • Layered skincare techniques inspired by Korean routines

    • Gentle skin preparation and exfoliation, including ultrasonic spatula use

    • Sculpting and lymphatic facial massage techniques

    • Product selection and ingredient intelligence for glass skin results

    • Safe integration of LED light therapy to support skin clarity and recovery

    • How to structure a calm, results-driven Korean facial treatment

    This course is intentionally separate from The Seoul Signature Facial, offering a distinct ritual built around Korean skincare principles rather than foundational Western facial protocols.

  • This course is suitable for both beginners and experienced beauty professionals.

    It is ideal for:

    • Beginners starting their journey in professional facial treatments

    • Newly qualified therapists looking to expand their knowledge of Korean-led skincare rituals

    • Qualified beauty and facial therapists wishing to incorporate a glass skin–focused facial

    • Aesthetic and facial practitioners seeking a gentler, hydration-led alternative to Western facials

    • Therapists drawn to ingredient-led, barrier-focused skin treatments

    This training stands alone as a sellable Korean Glass Skin Facial and complements The Seoul Signature Facial as a specialised, ritual-based treatment.

    • No previous facial qualification is required for beginners

    • Students must be comfortable with hands-on practical learning

    • Students are required to source and bring their own model for the practical session

    • Pre-course learning materials will be sent prior to training to introduce the Korean glass skin philosophy, key ingredients, and treatment structure

    The pre-course learning is provided for preparation only. It is not an assessment and is designed to allow more time for practical, hands-on learning during the training day.

  • A model is required for this course.

    • Students are responsible for providing their own model

    • The model must be available for the full training day

    • Full guidance will be provided in advance regarding suitability and preparation

    This course is fully accredited through Course Accreditation, allowing successful students to obtain insurance and legally offer this treatment to members of the general public.

the korean skin specialist intensive

(2-Day Programme)

A high-level, Korean-led training programme designed to build a complete, in-demand treatment menu in just two days. This intensive combines advanced Korean skin methodology with clinical treatment techniques

Course Includes

  • Glass Skin Facials (including ultrasonic spatula and LED Light Therapy)

  • Korean Contour Massage

  • Dermaplaning

  • Microneedling

Each treatment is taught with a focus on skin health, barrier-first care, and refined, results-driven delivery.

Delivered as a collaborative training experience between The Seoul Formula and Taylored For You Academy, this programme brings together Korean-led skin expertise with established clinical techniques, allowing you to confidently offer both advanced facial treatments and essential clinic services within your business.

Why This Course Is Different

Facial training is often delivered in group settings, where time and attention must be divided between multiple students. This can limit observation, correction, and deeper understanding of skin and product use.

This course is delivered on a one-to-one basis, allowing:

  • every stage of the facial to be closely observed

  • hand positioning, pressure, and technique to be corrected in real time

  • product selection and layering to be fully explained

  • treatments to be adapted to suit different skin types and conditions

Rather than following a rigid, scripted routine, you will learn how to think like a facial therapist, understanding why products are chosen and how to respond to the skin in front of you.

This level of depth is not possible in shorter, group-based courses and is designed to prepare you for real clients, not just certification.
