When I first saw this sample, I thought it was a primer but upon reading the product description here, I found out that it’s actually a transparent foundation. You can use it after moisturizer with or without foundation but if you use it with powder foundation, then it’s recommended that you use it before and if you’re using liquid foundation, then you should use it over. It may be applied any time of the day over make-up.
The texture is creamy and when I applied it the first time, my skin felt a little dry and tight. I believe it’s because it has the effect of giving skin a matte appearance so oily skins might benefit more from this. The 2nd time i used it, my skin felt a little less dry but there was still the tightening sensation.
The key ingredients in Glamour Shot are:-
- HQA microlens, new generation soft focus, reduces the appearance of pores, smoothes and mattifies the skin.
- Oat extract provides an optimal and immediate lifting effect.
- Encapsulated hyaluronic acid improves skin density and fills in wrinkles for a long-term effect.
- Urban Advance Complex, a powerful alliance of 3 active ingredients (shea butter serum, mint endorphin and probiotic sugar), acts as an anti-oxidant shield, neutralizing any cutaneous imbalances linked to pollution, strengthens the skin’s natural defenses and shocks the skin back to life on a cellular level.
I would say that it has a slight lifting effect so cheeks don’t look so saggy. Personally, the main benefit of using Glamour Shot is that it keeps skin looking matte all day as I have an oily T-zone. I’d still need a layer of foundation to achieve an even skin tone.
