Glo Skin Beauty Luminous Liquid Foundation SPF 18 - Linen

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

Why it works

Dull skin usually doesn't need more color, but more light. This formula contains diamond powder: microscopic particles that diffuse light instead of reflecting it harshly. This softens the appearance of fine lines and imperfections 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, and 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 fluid and light, feeling more like a nourishing cream than makeup.

For whom

For those whose skin looks flat or tired and who want to bring some life back into it. Also great for drier or more mature skin: it won't settle into lines the way a matte foundation can.

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

And one more important thing: factor 18 is a nice bonus, not a replacement for your sun protection. If you are going outside for the day, still apply a proper SPF underneath.

How to use it

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

About this shade

Linen is a light shade with the soft, unbleached color of linen.

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 will almost always lead you to pick a shade that is too dark. If you are debating between two, choose the lightest: you can correct a shade that is too light with bronzer, but you will notice one that is too dark all day long.

And something I often see: people use it like a classic foundation and try to cover everything up. This product wasn't made for that. Apply it thinly over your entire face and then touch up one or two spots with a concealer. That way, you maintain exactly the glow you chose it for.
