About Peach & Lily
Peach & Lily is a Korean (K-Beauty) brand that started in 2012 and is quickly growing. It is also a clean, cruelty-free, spa-grade brand powered by Korean Beauty innovations. As you may know, Korean Beauty is most well-known for their innovative and trendy beauty formulas, routines, and techniques. Just like Asia is more fashion-forward than the Western World, K-Beauty sets the tone for a lot of the beauty trends that we now follow in North America. The founder, Alicia, Yoon is an esthetician who struggled with eczema and problem skin which led her to creating this skin-solving beauty brand with an aim for glass skin.
What Is Glass Skin?
You may have heard the term “glass skin” floating around lately. And you may have guessed correctly, glass skin originated from Korea. I’ve seen a lot of American brands that have just jumped onto this trend as well. It is reminiscent of baby-like skin that are clear, bright, and glass-like since they are so healthy. Glass skin is smooth, luminous and clean skin that is so healthy that is basically glows and looks translucent. But not only is this an external appearance goal, this means that you need to work on skin health from the inside too. Take care of your body and it will take care of you.
Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum
What It Is
The Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum is a 2021 K-Beauty All Around Winner – and it’s well-deserved. This serum helps with your glass skin goals. Glass skin is achieved when your skin is perfectly hydrated and healthy, along with being free of inflammation and free radicals (unstable molecules that can build up in cells that cause illness and aging through oxidation or toxins in the environment). The Glass Skin Refining Serum combats the negatives that our skin faces daily from our computer screens and harmful factors in the environment, while giving your skin what it needs to be healthy and glowing.
Benefits
- Added hydration and combats dryness
- Addresses dullness of the skin
- Anti-aging
- Fights hyperpigmentation and redness
- Firms the skin
- Fixes uneven skin texture
- Helps target and prevent acne
- Protects from free radicals
- Targets fine lines and deep wrinkles
Key Ingredients
Peach Extract – Vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids to help with skin firmness, radiance, and resilience
Niacinamide – A stable form of Vitamin B3 that helps with inflammation and provides antioxidative benefits that fights free radicals and help brighten the skin. It also helps with elasticity and hyperpigmentation.
East Asian Mountain Yam Extract – Assists with creating more supple skin and reducing flakiness
Madecacassoide – Derived from Centella Asiatica extract, it helps control inflammation and soothe skin while stimulating collagen production
Hyaluronic Acid – A proprietary blend of short, medium, and long-chain hyaluronic acid molecules that provide hydration at every level of the skin so that it can be plumped up from within while the outer layer becomes radiant.

Skin Type
The Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum is perfect for all skin types. It is non-irritating and great for sensitive skin too.
How To Use
You can use the Glass Skin Refining Serum every day, morning and night.
How Much To Use
I find that you only need 1 to 2 pumps maximum of the Glass Skin Refining Serum. You can see more details of The Correct Amount Of Skincare Products To Use for reference.
Product Texture
The Peach & Lily serum is a light serum with a non-watery consistency. It is easy to spread on the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue.
Product Size
This serum comes in a 40 ml bottle, which is actually larger than most serums I have used. Generally, most serums come in 30ml unless the brand offers the serums in different sizes, then it can be larger.
Product Packaging
The serum comes in a cardboard packaging and in a plastic pump bottle. Personally, I’d prefer if they use something more luxurious for the serum bottle itself. It’ll really upgrade the feel and excitement of using the serum for me. I have had no issues with the pump and it works perfectly well.
How Long Does One Bottle Last?
I use my Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum usually twice a day with 1 or 2 pumps when I’m not occasionally testing out other serums on my travels, and it has lasted me 4 months so far. If you wait a few seconds after applying your toner, it is easier to spread the Glass Skin serum and I only need to use 1 pump. If my skin is completely dry, I usually need to use 1.5 to 2 pumps.
How Much Does It Cost?
A bottle of the Glass Skin serum costs $39 USD.
Where To Purchase Peach And Lily Skincare Products
I actually purchased my Glass Skin Refining Serum at Ulta Beauty when I was in Florida. You can purchase it at Ulta Beauty or Peach & Lily’s website.
My Results
I can usually tell very quickly whether or not a beauty product works for me. After a few days of use, I could already tell that the acne scars I have were fading and my skin started getting brighter. I like the texture and the way it absorbs into my skin easily and it doesn’t make my moisturizer pill. I have also noticed that my skin is more clear, glowing, and more transparent. Because I get occasional breakouts every month and have not yet achieved my ideal glass skin goals, I really think that the Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining serum has really helped with fading acne marks that I get and keeping my skin clear most of the time.
Verdict
From all the serums I’ve tried, the Peach & Lily Glass Skin Refining Serum is definitely my favorite and I will be repurchasing this as soon as I’m out. This serum will have a permanent spot in my skincare routine (when I’m not testing out other serums) and I plan to always have one in my beauty backstock. I found that this Glass Skin Serum has really made a difference in my skin with looking brighter and livelier and it’s definitely worth a try if you want to achieve your glass skin goals!
