My $12 foundation looks like skin & gives a nice glow – people say it’s a Charlotte Tilbury dupe but I think it’s better

A WELL-VERSED makeup fan has shared the cheap foundation they love for glowy skin.

They explained that it’s often referred to as a dupe for the more expensive Charlotte Tilbury foundation.

The Redditor shared their beautytip in a post.

They revealed that the $12 Maybelline Instant Age Rewind 4-in-1 Perfector Glow has been their go-to base makeup product.

“It’s VERY light coverage but looks like skin,” they said.

“Some people are calling this a dupe for the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter.”

They explained that they’d tried the $49 Charlotte Tilbury product themselves and much preferred the Maybelline.

“I find the Flawless Filter to be more greasy if that makes sense, and it gives my face an odd tint that the Maybelline does not,” they said.

They shared other drugstore favorites that proved to be core staples in their routine.

“The best setting powder I have found to date is the NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop pressed powder,” they said.

The find, which they can normally find for around $10 on Amazon, trumped more expensive luxury brands they’ve tried.

“I have tried Laura Mercier, Pat McGrath, Tarte, Charlotte Tilbury, etc., higher-end powders, and I like the NYX the best,” they said.

“The NYX will make you SMOOTH.”

The Maybelline foundation and NYX powder duo, they added, complemented each other well.

“[It] gives a nice glow under the NYX powder,” they explained.

For concealer, they reached for the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser.

The drugstore concealer proved to be an instant classic for them.

“Oldy but goody. Again, I have tried Tarte Shape Tape, Nars Radiant, One Size concealer, etc.,” they said.

“I use this under my eyes and sometimes all over the face depending on how much coverage I want that day on top of the Maybelline Glow and it looks great!”

Their makeup technique, they added, goes a long way to help the three products perform their best.

“I use a brush to sweep on the NYX powder after using a Beautyblender to tap in the two Maybelline products,” they revealed.

“Sometimes I even put my contour, highlight, and blush on BEFORE the powder, and the NYX blends everything together nicely. I am a huge fan of the NYX powder! Can you tell?”
