Glo Skin Beauty Luminous Liquid Foundation SPF 18 - Brûlée

A light liquid foundation that evens out your skin while making it glow, featuring SPF 18 mineral sun protection.

Why it works

Dull skin usually doesn't need more color, but more light. This formula contains diamond powder: microscopically fine particles that diffuse light instead of reflecting it harshly. As a result, the sharpness of fine lines and imperfections disappears, without making you look shiny or glittery.

The coverage is light to medium and buildable. It also contains vitamin C and rosehip oil as antioxidants, as well as cica and seaweed for hydration and a calm skin barrier. The sun protection comes from zinc oxide, a mineral filter that sits on top of your skin rather than absorbing into it.

The texture is liquid and light, feeling more like a nourishing cream than makeup.

For whom

For anyone whose skin looks flat or tired and wants to bring some life back into it. It is also great for drier or more mature skin: it doesn't settle into lines the way a matte foundation can.

If you have very oily skin, this is probably not the right choice for you: the glow you are looking for here is something you already have naturally.

And something else important: SPF 18 is a nice extra, not a replacement for your sun protection. If you are going outside for the day, make sure to apply a dedicated SPF underneath.

How to use it

Shake the bottle well before use, as the mineral pigments will settle. Apply it after your serum and cream, using a foundation brush or your fingers. Work from the center of your face outward and always blend down past your jawline so you don't have a visible line at the transition to your neck.

About this shade

Brûlée is in the deeper half of the range, with the warm, caramelized color direction the name suggests.

A final tip

Test your shade on your jawline in daylight, not on the back of your hand. Your hand rarely has the same color as your face and almost always leads you to pick a shade that is too dark. If you are in doubt between two, choose the lighter one: you can offset a shade that is too light with bronzer, but you will see a shade that is too dark all day long.

And something I see often: people use it like a classic foundation and want to cover everything up. That is not what this is made for. Apply it thinly over your entire face and then touch up one or two spots with a concealer. That way, you keep exactly the glow you chose it for.
