I have been using it with the NARS Sheer Glow (review pending!) for a few days as I find a product like this works best under a more medium coverage foundation. That said, this product evens out my skin, adds glow and sits well under makeup. Additionally, if I want to wear a red lipstick, I find it important to cancel out all redness in my skin so I have a flawless base against the red of the lip. I could get away with wearing just this for sure, however I like wearing a base to cancel out all redness so products such as blush and bronzer look better on my skin. This is minimized somewhat by the primer, but not completely. In the before picture you can clearly see the redness of my cheeks. Here you can see the product applied all over my face. I feel I can get away with a slightly deeper shade as the product is so sheer. That shade just worked best on me and had the effect I wanted. Before buying this, I got a tester card with all the shades on it and I tried all of the lightest three shades before settling on 2 Light. The shade I bought, 2 Light, looks a bit dark in the bottle, but because of the sheer texture I felt it works really well and still has some coverage to it. Once blended in you can’t even feel anymore that it is on your face. The formula is a lightweight liquid that feels pleasant on the skin. As you can see, the product sheers out very nicely, but it has a lot of glow so I don’t feel it is perfect for building up to create more coverage. In this swatch I am showing the product to you full on as well as blended out. As a makeup base I would skip this too as it doesn’t have enough coverage to cover up all of my redness and I find it too glowy to wear by itself. I therefore find it doesn’t work well for highlighting the high points of my face if I don’t use a light layer all over. This product is super glowy, but I find that once I sheer it out it looks more like a healthy natural glow, rather than a super strong highlight. That said, the formula is quite liquidy in texture and so I also understand why the doe foot was chosen as it makes less of a mess. To cover my entire face I feel I need to dip into the bottle a few times, so a pump or a squeezy tube would have made this product easier for me to manage. The way you apply this product is through a massive doe foot applicator, which I don’t love. What does this product do?Īs mentioned I wanted to use this as a glowy primer and that would be my preferred way of using this still. Hence the claim that you can use this in different ways: it has a bit of coverage, it has a lot of glow, but it also has some elements that makes your skin look smoother and more evened out. It boasts including a filler ingredient, while also creating a soft focus effect with a glowy finish that should make your skin look youthful and glowy. This is supposed to make your skin look the best it has ever done. At €40, I wanted this to be revolutionary and so the question is whether this is truly any different from any other primer I have tried? What does this product have to offer?Ĭharlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter promises to be more than just any primer. In 2020, I decided to try some more Charlotte Tilbury makeup and this one was high up the list. Many people rave about it and it has been a cult favorite makeup product for years. Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter is an infamous products in her line. Of the three that I am trying, this is the most expensive one, but also the one I bought first. Review: Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter in 2 Light Today is the first one for the Hollywood Flawless Filter. However, I also wanted to make sure I had dedicated reviews for each product up here. At the end of the month, I will be doing a video in which I compare all three. In February I am trying two more of these products: the Glossier Futuredew and Colourpop’s Pretty Fresh Illuminator. The Hollywood Flawless Filter I bought to try as a glowy base before makeup, but you can also use it as a highlighter on the tops of the cheeks or you can wear it as is. Is it a primer? Is it a highlighter? Is it a lightweight makeup base? What kind of makeup product is this? Let’s just say that the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter can be all three of those things and then some.
